Can a Efe get some love?

I feel his contributions are always under valued. Seems he's always just barely making the roster as the last guy on the bubble, but man he has come a long way. I feel he is arguably the second best pass rusher on the team right now. If  I hear sack on the play and it's not Burns there a pretty good chance it's this guy. Doing it from outside and in.

 It has been a pleasant surprise watching him develope. From a Europe project to full blown panther.. I'm not sure how the other guys who were awarded a Europe player in our division panned our but I wouldn't dout we got the best of them. Cheers to our friend from across the pond.

Seems like he’s really improving.  He didn’t get a lot of playtime with Ron and Company.  I think he’s the only guy from that international program that’s still on a roster and actively playing, could be wrong though.  He’s a good guy so I’d love to see him keep balling, I’ve seen his name a lot this year.  I’d love to re-sign him to a longer contract.  
 

4 more years!  Yes we can!!  OBADA

You don't sign 28 year old defensive linemen to four year contracts.  That's bad ball.

Listen, he's a great guy and a great story.  Absolutely no argument there.  But even the new staff just barely kept him.  Didn't in fact.  He was technically waived by the team in early September, but we resigned him the next day.

I hope he continues to play well and earns a couple more one year deals.  I'm happy for him that he got to realize his dream.  But let's not overhype a guy who is just barely hanging on.  Playing well, yes, but still barely here.

Let's see a couple good games in a row first.

He has been terribly inconsistent

All those crap free agent Defensive Linemen you have hyped in pre-season over the years .

now we have one that is contributing .

And you are backing off

He moves inside some (passing downs) so he adds some versatility--he is the reason we go with three DTs, 3 Nose tackles, fwiw.   but while we are talking DEs, Haynes has been the most improved, IMO.  YGM is ahead of where Charles Johnson and Greg Hardy were as rookies, btw, and he has been dinged up a bit.

Should absolutely be brought back as a depth piece.  He's a restricted free agent so there are several options to make it happen on the cheap.

Def a re-sign, even though he'll probably ask for a Mil but that's fair and we should pay him. 

It would be nice to see that versus a real OL though, they looked clueless. its also amazing seeing man coverage on 3rd down usually that be a soft zone 3 man rush play.

    • Jalen Carter came into camp out of shape too. That was part of the reason he dropped considering he was thought of as the better defensive player pre-draft activities. It’s not a good sign when you don’t look great but it’s definitely premature.
    • We won 5 with the worst defense in the history of defenses.  I think free agency and our draft puts us over 6.5.
    • Leaning towards just ordering this tonight, but now I have no idea on size. Has anyone bought a bunch of jerseys in the last few years and can convey how the Game vs Limited vs Reebok versions all fit? These are both Mediums... The white one here is a Reebok one from 2010, and was when they had the "+2 length" on the tag and it was the version with the stitched numbers instead of iron on... the blue one is from 2022 and is the F.U.S.E Limited version also with stitched stuff, not the "game jersey" with the ironed on numbers/letters that they have the T-Mac jerseys in. The old one fits me fine, the blue one was always a tad snug on me, particularly in the shoulders I'm leaning going with a Large based on the CMC, but for all I know, that is made with a tighter cut due to the higher "limited" level and the "game" ones they have for T-Mac are cut more like a T-Shirt and thus will fit more like the old white one I have here, not sure. (and yes, I already tried going to a sporting goods store here to hopefully try on a Lions jersey to see, but they don't have any right now)
