Bruce Irvin could realistically happen

Person says we have $2 mil in cap space available (somehow). Since the circlejerk for Wakanda has cooled off and Irvin looking to play for a team in contention and the Rams not having anymore room for DE, there's a good chance we sign him.

I'm just not sure he's good enough to justify yet another shakeup on our defense. The pass rush has been revving up the last few games, really since the Redskins game it's showed a lot more juice. I think that momentum will continue as guys continue to get comfortable in their rush lanes.

Irvin isn't a DE. Perhaps he could be used to fill in on obvious pass rush downs but he would need to be signed for well below what he would likely ask for. He didn't fit in with the Raiders 4-3 base scheme so he was released. He won't fit in here either.

They didn't drop him because he was playing lights out. They also weren't able to trade him in their recent fire sale.

Our D-line is building momentum and gelling with the players on hand.

We don't need him and he'd be a refurbishment project to bring him into our 4-3 system.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Pretty sure that a QB contract payday is all the competition any QB in this league needs, I don't think a competent backup is going to make them play any harder when the current situation wouldn't warrant the contract extension yet anyways. Your opening point in this post is also the problem, "Bryce has shown signs of improving", but that's still all he's shown, and he's only showing that because of just how bad he was to start his career. If he played like last season from the beginning and never improved one bit, then I actually think more fans would be ready to move on from him, which is what's weird.  It's like going from one of the biggest draft busts of all time into the 25th best QB in the league over 3 years means he deserves a long term $40+ million a year contract extension. Improvement shouldn't be the goal when the result of said improvement is still bottom of the league levels.

      Time to Sign David Njoku

      Yeah, but we've seen him do it. Just not often. I think that's the reason for the taller WRs. Would likely be a problem finding someone like Jimmy Horn in the mess.

      And the Rams, Seattle, Patriots, Green Bay, Jaguars and the Bills who all made the playoffs and in case you forgot, Seattle and the Patriots played in the SB. By any measure, that's pretty brutal.
