Super...so much for our big FA addition.

 

[ajcardfan]

Pretty savvy move. They can use the same jersey for the new guy.

 

[DVontel]

Heal up as smooth as possible, but I feel like he was the worst DL since the start of the season.

 

[DVontel]

Matter of fact, he should not have been starting over Stills in the first place. Bad look here for Monti, Gannon, & Rallis.

This is addition by subtraction.

 

[Chopper0080]

Almost like you need to add multiple players when you are building a unit from scratch. Injuries happen in the NFL and you need to insulate the key areas of your roster to be resilient to them.

A lot of bad luck for Monti, but losing two of your three top FA signings to injuries before week 4 is something.

Where I feel there is subtraction by subtraction is having to play Naquan Jones.

If he’s backing up Stills, which he should be, I don’t mind that much.

 

[Dayman]

No worries. We still have Bilal Nichols, who has 4 tackles this year and has yet to record even a QB hurry.

The backup rotation has been playing about 35%-45% of snaps.

What’s your point?

 

[ajcardfan]

Naquan Jones did play for us the last four games last season. He also played in 8 games for the Titans before we signed him. His games last season:

What’s your point?

Just that I believe there is a drop-off from Justin Jones to Naquan Jones, and that 35%-45% of snaps is a meaningful impact.

That’s probably where we disagree, because with how Justin has played, I don’t see much of a drop-off, if at all. Monti just got scammed.

If that means Stills will be getting more snaps, it’s good.

I am also excited to see Still get more snaps along with hopefully a nice sample size of snaps for Darius Robinson..

Agree. I was excited about the Jones signing but he has been disappointing so far. ....but Dante Stills is developing nicely

Kinda off topic. We are currently projected to have 119 mil in cpa space next year and there are three under 30 EDGE players who are scheduled to be on the market and playing over 60% of snaps. Chase Young. Josh Sweat. Joe Tryon. Alim McNeil might be the best DL player available.

Yea, I’m good with McNeil. Yuck on those other 3 guys.

 

[Crimson Warrior]

Every single guy on the 53 and practice squad becoming so so important in the NFL.

 

[602 Native]

Lovely, hopefully next man up is a thing but our defense was thin to begin with.

Cant say he wasn't active.
