Depends on if they want DE or OLB style guys. Shaq Barret, Isaiah Simmons, Bud Dupree, Haynes, and for DE's nothing really. Yannick?

Isaiah Simmons makes me sad.  The too often reality of a positionless player.  Chinn and Simmons are great talents.  I still think dudes like them are worth a shot.  High risk but you got to think some coach could figure it out.

I mean, wasn't the rumor he was almost benched last year for lack of effort/caring......on a stacked/SB favored team?  I mean, he was setup to excel in SF.  You can't give him attention on that D. 

I don't want him.  He is just a name that would cash a check. 

In the midst of a playoff run. 

Vet minimum only. He certainly is no Dawg.

Clowney finished 3rd in the heisman race 3 weeks before that hit 

True but there was always an oddness to Clowney.  He got that random high school hype you rarely see in football.   I mean, he was basically deemed great before ever being it.  Not saying he wasn't good in college.  He was.  Not sure he was ever a great football player.  He just hit the talent lotto early and big.

Devil's advocate--imagine if you were his agent.

He is 24, has been injured.  Has all the tools.  Needs a prove it deal. 

Great opportunity in Carolina and I doubt you can fill all your holes.

His goal, on a small one-year contract is to get more sacks that Burns in NY, more pressures, and more tackles.

I understand your viewpoint.  I think he was great in his sophomore season especially.   Prob should have been drafted by a team that ran a 4-3, rather than playing OLB, and microfracture surgery as a rookie probably didnt help his future prospects either.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
