Definitely the base down DE to replace Ferrell. Big enough to set the edge with the added bonus of being a decent pass rusher.

I dig it. So if what that CAR fan said is true about him being a good pass rushing DT, is he also a good run stopping DE for base downs? $9 for a designated pass rushing DT is a lot so I'm hoping he can also pitch in as a good run stopping DE.

He's 260, he's not a DT. He played OLB for the Panthers in the 3-4 they ran last year.

Ok and? Key wasn't a DT and they played him here as a rush DT and he did well and got a decent pay day the next year. Just because he played something else in a crap organization doesn't t mean a good team doesn't have a different vision

Yeah pass rushing DT doesn't have to be 290+. Arden Key excelled in that role with the 49ers and he's like 250.

And commits sexual assault when hazing underclassmen at Penn.

He alleges in the complaint that Barber, Parsons, Gross-Matos and did the following to him and certain other players:

Took their clothes and did not return them.
Told them they intended to make them "their b***h because this is a prison."
Wrestled them down and simulating a humping action while on top of them.
Placed their penis in their faces while simulating ejaculation.

Placed their penis on and in their buttocks.

GROSS!

Imagine the only memory you have of your father saying your name, is his voice in a video.
Now, imagine that man giving up his life to save you from drowing at the age of two (2).

Unfortunately, it doesn't stop there.

While playing babseball at the age of 10, think about what it was like to see the remains of your
12 year old brother, after being hit by a direct lightinng strike !!!

New 49ers DE Yetur Gross-Matos tragically lost his father and brother

I actually don't hate this at all. He's young and I'll bet the deal is much cheaper looking.

was regarded as a low 1st rd pick during the draft, went high in the second. Great measureables. Solid vs the run solid getting pressure. His best football could be ahead of him now that he's out of that s**thole.

As did Charles Omenihu, but he has at least 20 lbs on Gross-Matos.

Still focused on the d-line. We already signed Lloyd. Why not use the money on a good oline man and draft for d-line. No sense….

Someone tell me how to feel about this signing.

Has been kind of a meh player for most of his career but is coming off of his best season. He's still pretty young, has ridiculous length and is well built for a 4-3 DE. My guess is that they see him as their strong side base DE.

We piss away more money on meh players while we run out Ambry Thomas,Spencer Burford and Mckivitz as starters. On no planet is this guy worth 9 million a season.
