DT Ron Edwards injured


Recommended Posts

Unfortunate news for both Ron and the team. I wish him the best. As for replacing him we may have to wait a bit for releases (unless there is some unexpected salary cap cuts): Aug 30th for the 75 man roster and Sep 3 for the 53 man roster. That's three preseason games a the majority of camp. I think we will need to get someone in before then.

1) Pat Williams (38/317) - old and may want to play for an immediate contender

2) Kris Jenkins (32/360) - supposedly retired, also doubt he would come back to Charlotte

3) Marcus Stroud (33/310) - was not a good fit in the 3-4

4) Jamal Williams (35/348) - Rivera should have familiarity with him

5) Gerard Warren (33/330) - Likely a rotational type of player

6) Ma'ake Kemoeatu (32/364) - Big and could provide a stop gap

7) Jimmy Kennedy (31/320) - Former first round, fairly good size

8) Martin Parker (23/303) - UDFA rookie waived by the Giants, it would depend on the injury

9) Justin Harrell (27/315) - Former first rounder of the Packers, struggled with injuries early

10) Clifton Ryan (27/324) - Former 5th round pick of the Rams, big guy

EDIT: Just for reference Nick Hayden was rated below all these guys.

There are still some decent options at DT, unlike CB. If nothing else we have Fua, which is more than we could have said in '09 when Kemo went down.

I almost don't want to say it, but if this is the worst injury we have in camp I'll consider us lucky.

    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
