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.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.

      I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.

      As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
