Great structure. Easy out after year 2 (only 1.8 million dead cap) and little cap hit this year. Btw how do we get these contract details but still have not seen anything on shaq’s new deal???

I can only assume Shaq’s deal isn’t finalized yet. Maybe we’re waiting to see how much we actually spend in FA to see how much of his salary we need to convert to bonus.

I'm curious if they see him as NT or end in the 3-4 base. Has there been anything said about this? I suppose we will hear more in the next week

 

I'm a McCall homer and would love to see a 3 man front of Brown/McCall/Tuttle

I think they see him as a NT primarily in 3-4 or DT in 4-3. 

Brayvion Roy actually played quite well last year and can play NT also. Both are good run stoppers.

Henry Anderson (guy who had mini stroke last year) is also good against the run and can play DE in a 3-4. Not sure if he's under contract though

Didn’t know much about this dude but apparently he’s good against the run. Panthers defense has been horrible against the run since 2018 after Star left and Short got old

He'll fit right in because our run defense stunk last year compared to previous years, LOL.

2022 Saints defense vs. rush: 25th (attempts), 24th (yards), 14th (TD's), 20th (YPC)
2022 Panthers defense vs. rush: 23rd (attempts), 18th (yards), 21st (TD's), 12th (YPC)

We gave up 316 rushing yards to y'all last year and the Falcons went for 200+ in both games. 😅

With Tuttle being 6'3" 300, he projects to being a 3-4 Defensive end. You need a mammoth (McCall) at NT because all they are gonna see is double teams and they have to be stout at point of attack. They have to be able to force a double team to keep your inside linebackers free.

I know he was considered a NT in their 4-3 and maybe he's just got the technique and strength to play it in 3-4 but I agree. He does seem to project better to end.

Tuttle played around 320 last year according to the team website and they confirmed he will be our new NT

    • He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.  
    • This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.
    • I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
