Really excited to see what Haynes and Cox can do in a 3-4 as well. Lots of speed coming off the edge.

Yah, I think haynes is one to watch out for this year. I think he will surprise some people. It's almost like he was drafted last year with the intention of the switch.

Yeah, Haynes was unquestionably a bad pick last year based on the scheme we were running. That pick could look very good depending on where he ends up in the rotation. It's funny to think that we had a serious issue with pass rushers just this past season and yet now we could end up with a lot of them.

Trying not to get too far ahead of myself though. Outside of Addison and Irvin, we still have very few PROVEN pass rushers. And Addison has not played as a 3-4 EDGE to my knowledge.

Rivera is clearly trying to channel the 2013 defense that had a potent pass rush that covered up a porous secondary. That secondary got exposed in the playoffs though so we'll see 

I think we’ll be ok with James on his contract year and Jackson on his 2nd year. Safety and slot will be an issue though (as everyone knows).

Wait, weren't we at 90?  Someone has to go.  Obviously a camp body, but it sucks for that guy to though OTAs only to get kicked to the curb.

My guess Obada or Cox

Why? Do you really think Haynes will even be active much? Unless Burns or Miller flame out, how is Haynes going to get time over Addison, Irvin, Burns and Miller. I’m excited to see Burns, Miller and Irvin. I don’t think Haynes will see the field much at all assuming health and no busts.

With a year in the league he may be ahead of Miller at this point.  Training camp will beat that out.

The we are rolling a LB or DT to the 4-tech in even fronts?  I figured those two were safe because they are the only 4-3 ends left on the roster.  Addison is slimming down to LB weight supposedly.

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room (behind him anyway). Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
