DT Josh Price-Brent?

The supplemental draft is next week and I was wondering if anyone thinks we could take a chance on this guy? He is listed at 6'2" and 315 lbs, he had 7 tackles for a loss, 3 sacks, and 3 forced fumbles in 12 starts for Illinois. Obviously bc he is in the supplemental draft he comes with some baggage but if he lasts until the 5th or 6th round he may be worth it. I heard some guys saying he had at least a 3rd round grade on him before he got into trouble.

Thoughts? I seriously doubt we do this by the way, just thought I'd throw it out there for discussion.

We kept 5 DE's last year so I wonder if we'll do the same this year. Norwood is going to be kept as a LB but he'll also have his hand in the dirt some so maybe we'll keep 5 DT's this time. I seriously doubt Hilee Taylor is going to add that much. We'd probably be better off with 5 interior guys this time.

There is your answer.

Oh definitely...I could see us making a few trades before the season starts much like we did last year with Leonard and Tyler. I'm not as worried about the DT spot as most people but I would love to get some depth.

I agree!

    • There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.
    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
