Why the hype around this guy? He seems like an Ebukam/Omenihu level player at best. Hasn't done much in this league. It's not like we added B Burns, TJ watt, or even Demarcus Lawerence. Seems like another decent body to bolster depth. What am I missing?
He's much more talented than those guys and been impactful when he's played. Dont be fooled by his low sack numbers, his advanced stats show that he's been a top 10 pass rusher when healthy the last couple of years. So the potential is there for him to be a force on this defense for us and make some serious noise.
if it wasn't for him smoking weed, he would of been a top 15 nfl draft selection and the cowboys wanted to sign him to a $70M contract extension. He's talented and impactful. Just need him to stay healthy and focused, he will be a beast for us.
and he costs us the vet minimum for the rest of the year with no guaranteed $
He is basically the best lotto ticket addition you could imagine
That's kinda my point. No team gives up good pass rusher for nothing. We had to give up a 2nd and pay Dee Ford to get him on the team, despite of his major health concerns. Hard to believe RG's that good since we got him for nothing.
That team just cut another good pass rusher for nothing and are rumored to be looking at trading more players. They are blowing it up for a rebuild.
He averages a sack every 3 games. Put him on this DL with Kocourek coaching him up and that number will probably go up.
