I like what we're doing with the defensive line... this could make for a very interesting year. We look loaded with guys who are just this close to break-out years. If two or three pop at the same time, it could be tremendous. And just the rotational opportunities... wow.

To most NFL fans, this is a no-name defense. By December, they'll know, they'll know.

Better than signing KK only to watch him be hurt and never see the field for a 3rd straight season. 

Agreed.  The image that comes to mind is Lucy pulling the football away (again), just as Charley Brown tries to kick it.  We've seen how this turns out. 

Just say 'no' to eternal optimism not grounded in reality and experience.  Pay for actual performance, everyone else walks.

That signing sounds great but I feel like we might be wishing we’d signed him for more than one year 

Likely wouldn't agree to it with the cap so low, and the TV deals about to come.

 

He wants to be 30 or under and get one more shot at a big payday.

 

I like this signing a LOT.  In a very weak DT draft, this makes me feel better.  Now, address the O Line and Secondary.

Fitt-Dawg plugging up all the holes on this roster before the draft.  This stuff is SOOOOO refreshing.  Its like night and day from the Hurney/Rivera regime.  Have we EVER been this active in free agency before?  

Nope, because...''The answer is on the roster''. Also we'd blown a ton of cap on HB's and CJ Johnson at the time.

We really need someone that can rush from the interior. Twyman had a good pro day. 

Fox, and Matos -- folks should remember we'll be in Nickel most of the time we're talking 65+ % and much higher, as 11 personnel is the new ''base'' offense. 

Nickel Pass (2 DL, 4 LB, 5 DB) - Burns / Matos or Fox / Brown / Reddick 

Nickel Run (Traditional - 4 DL, 2 LB, 5 DB) - Burns / Roy or Jones / Brown / Gross Matos or Fox

We have a lot of personnel flexibility -- this isn't even taking into consideration the Odd fronts we'll be able to build upon that we saw last year, we are well suited to line up in 3-4 // 33 fronts. 

DL - Brown / Jones or PJ Johnson (345 lbs) / Roy 

EDGE - Burns / Reddick 

Off LB - Shaq / Perryman

DB - Jackson / Bouye

S - Chinn / Burris / Rookie / TBD Vet

----------------------------------------------------------------

I honestly can't wait to see what we do on defense.

you can always use a great interior pass rusher but stout inside guys also help rushers like Reddick make plays.

 

Jones isn't devoid of pass rush either. From what's been posted he seems to play all over with success at various techniques.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
