6'5 335 lbs, 27yo

4th rounder for the Cardinals, played on the Jets last year. Been mostly a rotational guy, but could be another Luvu-type discovery from the Jets that could blossom here.

Guy was a multi-sport coming out of college, played football AND rugby at 335 pounds. Running full speed in a game like that with THAT size? That's an incredible feat.

He's a low risk traits vs production kinda guy with all the measureables you'd want in a NT, and that 335 is mostly muscle! He looks lean for his size. Very athletic, but raw. Not a lot of highlights so had to go back to college:

 

Also, he has a Panthers connection because he trains in the offseason with a cousin of his: Star Lotulelei

 

I think he's the perfect opportunity to give a shot to a young guy with a prove-it deal, and if he can make a turnaround here, then it'll just make us even stronger.

Panthers… where rejects get another chance to prove why they are rejects.

Frankie Luvu was one of those 'rejects', and look at him now thriving. First with us, now with the Commanders. But it just goes to show theres diamonds in the rough out there that we could take a bargain shot at.

washington is who we should have been. they're now going all in. we are playing catch up and hoping the momentum from bryce carries over to next year and it wasn't a flash in the pan.

Literally was thinking the same thing just now.  We won’t be winning anything in 2025.

    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
