I guess we still need a better edge-rusher

They should start him over AA and make AA an interior nickel rusher so people can't use the excuse of him being on the edge anymore.

But they won't.

Well, AA is going to be that guy on 1st and 2nd lol. I do wonder what they view Ebukam as. Meaning is he really replacing Ford? Do they look for another speed rusher? I'd like for them to bring in a DL on day 3 as well as an UDFA that can play edge on 1st and 2nd and move inside on 3rd down. Time to finally get that Michael Bennett. It didn't work with Solomon Thomas. It only works for AA when surrounded by elite talent. Maybe we can get a guy on day 3 or an UDFA that can be a reliable starter/contributor. It would put us in a position to move on after this year. I mentioned extending Deebo and if we can frontload that contract, we'll be in great shape. Having a suitable replacement/better player on the roster will free up even more cap space to start extensions for guys like Greenlaw and Samuels, ensuring we can keep all our core guys for as long as possible.

W/ Bosa over
without Bosa under

He got 4.5 as a situational guy already. I think he can get 9 if he exclusively plays at DE and gets enough snaps.

Those were only 25lb plates. 350 plus the bar. Not too impressive for his size imo but I'm glad he's powerful on the football field. I figure he's good for about 7-8 sacks. Well worth the money

Oh I didn't see that. I used to those power lifters stacking on those 25s and feeling strong. Steroids helps a ton as well. I'm surprised the bar isn't bending more.

Not that impressive. That's only 634 more pounds than I can do.

Yup you're correct.

you can tell the others are 45's and the last plate is 25. plus the bar.

I've been saying for years that we need speed/contain guys just as much as we need pure pass rushers. I don't expect Samson to get great sack numbers but he's quick enough to keep RW and Kyler in the pocket.

He became a superstar in his 2nd year with the niners in madden !

Bosa will make them run, Ebukam will catch them.

He will be well worth the money. Some speed and power is needed against the mobile qbs we face

Looks like 1 25 on each side plus 6 45s. So over 600 pounds.

For his size its a pretty good amount of weight. For a 250 pounder, that would have him squatting 2.5 times his bodyweight, right in the area you want to be for an elite athlete that relies upon their explosiveness.

Not commenting on the chap, I'm sure he'll be a great player.

His squats tho....Nowhere near 90°. I can 1/4 squat 150kg and still kick my wife in the face after. Not necessarily impressive.
