It's easy, and only takes a few moments.If he is going to be active, he should get a crash course with the 1s to bring him up to speed.I can't see how he just jumps in with the ones, but that's the report from the walkthrough today. Maybe he'll get a look there in Atlanta.

Maybe they should bring in Rosie O'Donnell for a look...
I was neither high or down on him.Am I right in remembering there were high hopes for this guy last year? It's all a little fuzzy, but I thought he was likeliest to be a backup at NT. Vinsurance or what-have-you.

I thought it was a good move to bring a young run stopping DL in given the age and contract status of our DLman.
Personally, I think its hard to miss on ability on a player like this because the skillset is so narrowly defined. I think its easy to miss on makeup, commitment, and the difference between being a college player who is phyically better than the opponent and doesnt have to work too hard, and the hard work it takes at the NFL level for EVERYONE.
Provding that last year was an adjustment and not a sign he just doesnt have the makeup to take the step up to the NFL, I think he would be a good option on first down and part of the rotation. We will soon find out though if that knock out factor exists.
I'm assuming he passed the physical other wise i'd like to know how he jumped from not practicing to the first unit.I can't see how he just jumps in with the ones, but that's the report from the walkthrough today. Maybe he'll get a look there in Atlanta.
Brace, Warren, Smith, the hot dog vendor, any cheerleader with a low center of gravity and big thighs.....
At this point, every option should be explored.

DE. I doubt he will be a 'starter', but he could be in the mix for playing time, esp on 1st down.Haven't been following the D-Line threads, etc. Where would Brace play as a starter?
