Sands and Robertson?

i think these two would make great depth

Dewayne Robertson for the pass rush.

Terdell Sands for the backup run stopper. the raiders are shoping him but i think they will end up cuting him later in the summer. He is 6'7 335 i rem him from the oakland raiders game last year.he is huge and could backup kemo or atleast compete with harvey

I think pass rush would be fine without another player, but another moutain in the middle of the line...I'd be just dandy with that.

the pass rush is horrible, as long as we don't have a dominant DT we at least need a quality rotation and we really don't have much to work with

they ignored DT last year and while we had a quality season the lack of depth and talent reared it's head a few times, we need to focus on that a lot

we just need more quality players period, any way we can get them.

I don't think we have enough cap room, or enough room no the 53 man roster.

why do you think that.?i think both will take fair low deals and when it comes to the roster why not?all or our depth are young projects..both of these guys offer depth with playing time under them

Sands might be affordable IF he is cut. Robertson is only available because he refused to restructure a 16 million or so cap hit. He likely won't be cheap until we see if there are any significant injuries in camp/pre-season.

the longer he is out there the cheaper robertson will be...and he has been out there a while..plus all these teams moveing to a 3-4 and robertson being a 4-3 guy he wont cost that much...

I will keep posting this until the FO gets in gear. We Need more help at DT. It was no coincidence that we start giving up points when Kemo and Lewis got dinged up. We need too have more backing them up then (Undrafted FA, Rookies, and 2nd year players). I will sleep better at night if they brought in Sands or Robertson.

With Robertson, it's not a matter of what he's worth. It's what he thinks he's worth. He isn't going to sign a deal just to get on a roster. He's young and the best available DT and he knows it.

    • Seriously? A CB who missed all that time on his rookie deal and was also a top 10 pick when the guys picked right before and after have been studs. A RB our GMs tried to replace with FAs and 2nd rounders and two backup level players is one of the best drafts we’ve ever had? I’d argue that the 2011/2012 drafts were better even with just Cam and Luke/Norman. Here’s the drafts I think were better: 2017, maybe 2018, 2015, 2013, 2011, 2012, 2008, 2007, 2001, 2002 (just Pepp) I’m hoping 2025 is way better as well. Honestly, we’ve kind of sucked at drafting overall and that’s the only reason you can even remotely call Horn, Hubbard, Tremble and BC a good draft let alone one of our best ever. Good teams that draft well would laugh at that as a great draft. If you want to look at say the 2023 Lions draft, you’d get 4 stud/above average/average starters not just 3 replaceable starters/backups and a top 10 pick that missed half his games. That’s a draft that helps turn a team into a playoff team. Our record since our 2021 draft is 19-49. A best ever draft doesn’t go 19-49.
    • I remember when football was great.    Wasn't this century.  
    • Bingo. You can't pay that type of player elite franchise QB money. That average starter type player can excel when he's surrounded by top shelf talent in a great offensive system but pay him elite QB money and you're going to really struggle to surround him with the type of talent you need to carry him. You pay those elite franchise QBs because they can carry your roster. You can't pay guys who have to be carried. Bryce showed glimpses down the stretch last year. I really hope he keeps building on that. But before we back up the Brinks truck he needs to show that he's the type of QB who can lift up and carry the offense because when you pay those guys that's what they're gonna have to do.
