Uffalo Ills Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I wonder what some of y'all think of him. he's a bit under the radar, but he had an amazing season with the Ravens, gaining 7.5 sacks in only limited snaps. He is already a 3-4 OLB, a position we might need to get now that kiko is gone. He is good against the run and at rushing the passer. Plus, he's only 26. We will miss some of kiko's coverage skills... I'd offer him a $5mil / 2 year contract. He might get better offers, but then again, he's not the best known edge rusher entering FA, and currently, the Ravens pay him peanuts (Rookie contract I think though). According to PFF: He not only provides value as an edge rusher but can also do damage from inside. He could fit with either a 4-3 scheme or a 3-4 scheme. The best fit for him would be with a team that embraces his versatility (like the Ravens did) and that shows the willingness and creativity to move him around and maximize his pass rushing ability. Creativity? Sounds like a Rex Ryan word to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloHokie13 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 He's looking for 8-10 mil a year according to the Ravens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frogger Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 He will be less expensive than Hughes, his PFF rating was higher than Hughes (not a big deal) I'd be very okay with signing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Would love to get him as a replacement for Hughes if possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uffalo Ills Posted March 5, 2015 Author Share Posted March 5, 2015 (edited) He's looking for 8-10 mil a year according to the Ravens per year? He's on crack... He's good, but honestly not well known about (He's not exactly JJ watt) and he was injured for 2 seasons before this.

He may not get that, but he's defintley not getting 2 year 10 mill. That's for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at the table Karlos Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 If we lose Hughes I would be ok. I don't think 2 years 10 mill will do it. Also he would not be replacing kiko as a 34 olb kilo would have most likely been a mlb in a 34 due to size and strenght. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown isn't going outside, Bradham is kikos size. Neither of them were going outside. I think that's one of the reasons spikes is gone for sure. Another inside guy. Being in Harris and we have brown and Harris inside, while wasting Bradham. I'd stick brown and Bradham inside. Hughes or his replacement on one side with Mario/Lawson on the other. Unless we have a 4 man front, I don't like Harris, brown and Bradham out there at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
