Anyone have a read on Cris Canty DE from Dallas

Recommended Posts

I watched a couple of Dallas games and though he is a 3-4 DE he might not be a cheap DE vet- still young at 27 I think? good size 6-7 +/-285

Ohh wait Rosenhaus is his agent- forget it

I thought he played well in the games I saw and might have a large chip on shoulder cause often he was taking blockers for Ware to get sacks...

thoughts? am I crazy or can a 3-4 DE translate into our system?

Knee and Eye issues in the past. Good character, really stand up guy and he was going to be a surefire pick. He's a Brayton type end, he'll rush the passer, but we need a more balanced to burner type end like an Allen, Suggs or Abraham if we're to be successful.

I would like him as a rotational guy who would come in and rush from the DT position on third downs.

Him and Brayton inside with Johnson and another speedier guy would be a pretty good pass rush DL. Considering Brayton and Canty are decent run stuffers at DE they would not get caught out oo much if they run a draw etc

He would be like a DT playing DE. A tweener size for 4-3.

I disagree. 295 is 4-3 tackle size. He's just playing 3-4 DE because the 3-4 takes tackle size players and puts them there. People used to think that Burton was an end/tackle tweener because he played 3-4 DE. He never played DE here, but people labored under the assumption that he gave us immense versatility.

Canty would actually be an intersting guy to explore. As you know Dallas is one of the 3-4 teams that runs a one gap scheme popularized by Bum Phillips in the 70s. As such he plays an aggressive attacking style similar to how we used Lewis this year. Don't know if he is an upgrade though.

    • Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement. 
    • Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players
    • This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
