We have to be getting a new NT right?

Free Agents NTs: I'm hoping we get DJ Jones and bring him home.

We have to be getting one of these guys right? RIGHT? I Know they "claim" EJ "likes" undersized NTs for his scheme but I'm more apt to believe that Tuttle was just the best they could get with all the dead money and EJ was just saying he could scheme with an undersized NT not that he prefers it. In what world would you "prefer" your 3-4 to not have a traditional NT? Makes no sense to me but I feel it is honestly the biggest weakness on the team, moreso than Edge or #1 WR but getting one of these NT's in FA fixes it.

For reference this is Shy Tuttle PFF: image.thumb.png.3eb61b8668ad2599a1218535722b2124.png

DJ Jones PFF:

Similar stats but twice the run defender at the same position. Would help a lot.

DJ Jones makes $10M AAV Shy Tuttle... $9.4M AAV, he has GOT to go. Cutting Tuttle would save $6.5M on the cap, then go pay what you have to to a real NT so we can stop the run next year.

Derek Brown, Mason Grahm/Deone Walker, Ashaun Robinson

Solved.

 

I'm still on team trade back to late teens and pick up an additional 2nd round pick.  I'll take Jalon Walker as an Edge along with Dani-Dennis Sutton.

Graham AND Walker???

OR..... If we miss out on Graham with #8, use our 2nd round pick on Walker.  You can't teach 6'6 345 LB's that can get sacks

Walker is one of my guys after the first round. He and Harold Fanin Jr. I think are going to be very good from that non-first round group.

Unfortunately Dani Dennis Sutton just committed to next year at Penn State 😞

Fantastic thread, Thank You. Unfortunately Tuttle was a bust this season and not having Derrick Brown hurt. Asking a rookie to play starting NT in the NFL is not real successful. Milton Williams from the Eagles would be a nice option.

Yeah he's a dude.  Everything I've read on him sounds like he's ready to make noise in the league too.  Seems like a real grinder.  Team captain too.

I think we need a new DT (NT) and a 3T as well--both need to be starters.  I see A Robinson as rotational at this point in his career.  There are some good DL in the draft--but you dont want 2 rookies--one FA, one rookie, in my view.

Tuttle sucked at NT, and then there is this:

      Hunt and Corbett to IR

      By PleaseCutStewart · Posted

      Hunt is a killer loss. Hopefully we put Mays at C and BC at RG. Or I wouldn't be opposed if we slid icky to RG and put BC at LT. Highly doubt we do that though

      Panther fans sound off on Bryce

      By electro's horse · Posted

      Everyone knew Manziel was going to flame out, especially once the combine process started and all the stories from TAMU started to get to teams. Dude straight up did not know how to play football, how to read a defense, how to not do drugs. There were rumors that his family was involved in armenian organized crime that were pretty credible.  He was just that physically gifted in college; he had a huge arm, he could scramble away from anyone, and no matter where he was on the field he could toss up a jump ball to mike evans. Him beating Alabama was what caused Saban to finally get away from statue QBs and implement some RPO elements.  The way he played in college was never going to work in the pros. Even if he wasn't a polysubstance abuser and was cerebral and willing to put in the work, the best case scenario was always him sitting for multiple years and learning how to play football. He was off almost all boards, notably not Dallas tho.  This a true story. A homeless person approached Jimmy Haslam on the street and told him to draft Johnny Football. So the Browns did. That was just about the worst place he could have landed, he started right away, and the first time he tried to get to the edge against an NFL linebacker he realized he wasn't as fast as Luke Kuechly and he was injured and never really played again.  I was at this game.  Anyway, great college player, absolutely deserved the Heisman, was never going to work in the NFL, hard to call him a bust just because the Browns reached for him and threw him to the wolves.
