Really? What four defensive players would have been better? Reddick played fewer than 400 defensive snaps for the Jets, so it's almost impossible to have a full accounting of his quality.

If you want to put him behind Budda, Williams... and who else? Man our defense was held together with spit and baling wire last year.



He didn't really get a huge contract in 2022. I don't know why you think he'd get one after the worst season of his career. Joey Bosa makes $20 million a year and is the 12th-highest paid Edge.
All depends on what you classify as huge.
I think he’ll get a 15-20M /year (more incentive based than normal) contract which IMO is huge

Dude that was so last year. You know lots of these debates are very in the moment, and while we drafted Hassan he is now considered a free agent and not a draft pick...totally different standards, totally different debate man.

okay, okay...blatant K9 attack aside...

Reddick didnt wanna play for that team last year. There was bad blood because he feels they lied to him about his money. That makes a huge difference in the effort on the field. I mean, I dont particularly want to sign him. But "IF" we draft walter Nolen, Darius shows up...and we keep browning... the defense is markedly better with Reddick...especially if Ojulari actually plays a whole season.

I'm happy to take a gamble on Reddicks upside. I've said here we should try sign him and I'd be comfortable somewhere round $10m per (although my concern with Reddick is his effort being aligned with how fair he thinks his game check is).

But also I don't think anyone can say he's a top 2 or top 4 players on this defense. When it comes to name maybe, but it's been a minute since he played that well.

It takes two to tango, but targeting Reddick and Milton Williams given their prior connections to Gannon seems like a total no brainer to me. And, if we are able to add an edge and DT before the draft, it truly frees us up to target BPA over need.

I mean, I know that we all believe that pass rush is a need, but if the Cards re-sign Browning, I'm not 100% sold that the Cards will agree that edge and IDL are critical needs.

If you look at the roster right now at the offensive line, there's real and good reason to panic.

I don't get this at all...Browning is a gimmick player that is best used on 3rd down/obvious passing situations. Yes, he's a useful piece, but certainly no reason to not get an above average pass rusher.

I don't get the big concern about offensive line. Both tackles are ok, center is fine, and some combination of Brown/Adams/Hernandez should be ok at guard. Our D-line/OLB situation is a far bigger problem.
