He'll play end on base downs, probably move inside on passing downs. Basically he's Armstead and Armstead is Kinlaw.

And Kinlaw is Hurd, and Hurd is the new rehab trainer.

Seems like a low-risk trade with some good potential.
Hopefully this trade is a good Omen-ihu for our pass rush.
I don't know much about this guy but he has good size and he's still young. You never know how a player will do when he comes to a new system. Maybe he'll fit better here. Maybe he get's better coaching. All we can do is watch and hope he helps.

Not bad. I liked him in the draft in 2019. Good size, ridiculous length, reasonably athletic for his size, can play inside or outside. If nothing else he should help improve the run defense.

Yup, I liked this kid in the draft! Especially after his Senior Bowl and one of the craziest wingspans I ever seen
Omenihu > Von Miller

This move changes everything!
Solid move, good depth/rotation. Was a fan of him during the draft process. Not a one yr rental either.

Am I too late for the "OmeniWHo" joke?

Who would ever complain about adding another pass rusher???

Because that's what we need! Another average DL! Wasn't that supposed to be the strength this year? Especially with all our supposed great depth that we supposedly didn't want to trade and turned teams down...

Yeah he's still young, I really like this move. Hopefully it works out
