NFL Cut down Date

[BobDigital]

Could be a scheme thing... he has the size to stop the run... could be worth kicking the tires on.

Lets make this the notable player cut thread. In that spirit one name i'd like to mention...

For our purposes Leki Fotu is the kind of guy who could maybe help our run D issues.

Remember when people thought Zappe should be the Patriots starting QB? Can’t even make the Jets roster as a back up and their starter is Geno Smith.

Can he play NT?

He plays NT? Do we need a good NT? Is he any good?

 

[Joey007]

He hated the Onwenu pick.

He still hates the Onwenu pick.

 

[PatsFan2]

I doubt he comes back but...

That's breaking news?? Signing Harry would be breaking news.

[Bill Lee]

That is a bummer

Yes, it sucks for the player and those who like him.

No, it means we think we have TEs who are already better already, or who have more upside.

Another old friend still around. Hopefully he finds a landing spot.

I think picking up a true NT is important. Think about it. With a 4 man front with 2 LB's and a nickel secondary, you are essentially playing with a 6 man front vrs potentially 7 offensive blockers. Regardless of the talent, the numbers just don't work out. By running a NT with you get an extra man to jam up the middle and it jams up the middle so we don't see the carnage in the middle we saw in Cleveland where the Browns could double team one DLman and STILL have even numbers on the rest.

That doesn't necessarily mean we should use it as our basic defensive alignment, but we SHOULD have the personnel that would give the option to do both.

Whatever spot he finds, there's an 80% chance it will be the wrong spot.

 

[Uptown]

Is he good?
