Wow they must really like this "guy".

BB used to coach a 'guy' named Lawrence

 

[ScottishPatriots]

Judging defensive ends and defensive tackles purely on sacks is flawed logic, Erik Walden of the Colts had 11 sacks last year is a FA and still hasn't found work.

You have to look beyond numbers.

BB is preparing a D that ROTATES the big fatties, so they're fresh with the pressure. Rushing Up The Middle this season. And bull rushing. Why this emphasis? Because in 2017 we face several GOOD QBs. Even good QBs are susceptible to strong up the middle pressure.

Guy is one of the main reasons why the Ravens had a Top 5 Run defense on 2016, and can also be a threat as a pass rusher

Amazing BB blitz-krieg

Damn... I can't keep up.

Here's a pretty good article about him.

A little expensive for a run stuffer. If they went this route would have liked to look at Poe or Hankins.

If they'd signed Poe, I'd have called ahead to the E.R. to schedule an appointment for 4 hours later.

Id have to imagine based on these moves we really our keeping Jimmy G long term filling all holes.

 

[Soul_Survivor88]

No.

You sure about that Robert?

All you need to know about what BB thinks of the draft.

What do these moves have to do with Jimmy G?

JAG's not going to be getting any snaps at DT, now.

First a firehose and some delousing powder to get the ratbird stench out.

Then

Welcome aboard for the quest for 6. Think he is going to work out fine here, one of those BB signings that kills it.

Farewell Geno Grissom

Not so fast, PWP. The guy who you want to say good bye to with this signing is Odrick. The Pats had a need for 3-4 DE type would can be used inside pass rush downs, but big enough to play a 3-4 DE when that alignment is advantageous to Patricia. We didn't have 2 guys like that on the roster (MBrown is the other) before today.

Don't know anyting about him, except BB liked him better than Odrick, and I liked the Miami Odrick. Seems like a lot of money, but lets see what the ACTUAL contract is. I bet its loaded with incentives.

BTW- I was just over at Miguel's page and found it interesting that Gilmore will only cost $8+MM against the cap this year, and we have $39MM left after all the activity we've had.
I wish there was a way you could trade cap space for draft picks.

If we want to keep around $10mm for in-season flexibility, that would mean we have close to $30MM left so spend (and 6MM more if DA gets cut) When we sign Hightower, if its anything like Gilmore's contract, we'll STILL have around $3oMM to spend.

THEN the question becomes.....what do we spend it on. I'd be on the phone to Mangold right now. Christ if we carry it over to next year, we'll almost have enough to francise Butler AND Garapolo.

We are filling holes instead of using high draft picks to fill them.

 

[Tony2046]

All these signings are part of one big BB master plan to lure Hightower back.

What do these moves have to do with Jimmy G?

Nowadays, everything has to do w Jimmy. Jimmy is Michael Jackson circa 1984.
