6-2, 235, Ole Miss D4 Panthers 2018. Became UFA in March. No team since then. Played 71 games in 6 seasons, 2 starts. 14 career sacks. Turned 30 in December, so becomes 6th player on current roster 30 or older, including Dennis Gardeck, who turns 30 on Friday.

Championship!!!

LOL. Monti going with the Ice Spice model. More butt to hopefully distract from the lack of talent.

 

[gmabel830]

Certainly not a needle mover, but had productive college career and has the same number of career sacks as Gardeck in about half as many games. Earned a second contract with Carolina before what I assume was injury filled 2023 (only played 7 games).

Championship!!!

Beat me to the punch.

All of our edge rusher problems have been solved!

 

[FB94]

don’t know much about him but hopeful he can surprise all of us with a good year given the opportunity. Looks like MO will wait until 2025 draft to upgrade Edge position. Offense is more complete and still could use some tweaking next year, but the defense still needs several upgrades of talent across all levels with Edge and run defense main focus.

He'll fit in great - just like everyone else in our island of misfit toys edge room!

No, it has this guy is clearly better than BJ who we lost which is a complete non-factor remember K9 said so

This made me snort

I really hope this is just a temporary fill while Monti starts to work the phones. This defense could be a Chandler Jones type of acquisition away from being average to go with a possibly above average offense.

He hawked Kyler one time. Maybe the plan is for him to do the same vs CMac

No chance, teams dont usually deal out their superstar pass rushers after the draft. The draft pick return the dealing team would get from a trade today is the same they would get from making that trade next March. Maybe if Reddick truly can't get a deal done with the Jets?

On a positive note the 2025 draft is supposed to be loaded with pass rushers.

You don't think the Chargers would move on from Mack, who is in the final year of his deal and have a new GM and coach? That is just one off the top of head.

Normally I would think they would have moved him by now if that was the plan. But Mack is 33 and I doubt any other team would want to give him a new deal, so maybe we would have a shot.

Mack is the kind of player a superbowl contender trades for before the deadline. I really hope we dont give up anything significant to rent him for a season, and I would hate if we gave him a new deal.

100% on no new deal. I'm not sure what draft compensation should look like though.

This is our edge room. Deal with it

 

[juza76]

This is our edge room. Deal with it

All of Our pass rushers are back up players at best
I don't know their real intentions for the upcoming season but if they don't add a legit starter at olb the defense will be always mediocre

 

[Redsz]

I can only hope that this is one of many moves to come regarding our edge room.

 

[cardpa]

We're going to rely on coverage sacks don'tcha know.
