He could play some 3 tech in a 4 man front in Buffalo but I am not sure that is where our need really is. I don't think at this stage in his career he is a 4-3 Edge guy. He completed 2020 with the second most snaps in his career. As part of a rotation I am very confident McDermott can find a place for him.

Hughes, Watt, Epenesa, Jefferson would make a good rotation. Hopefully Star comes back, which free up Oliver and the LBs But he wasn't an "edge rusher". He was playing as an end in a 3-4 and attacking the B gap. 1
buffalo2218 Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 This just dawned on me and it's a scary thing to think about. If the Jests end up getting Watson, they may end up getting Watt as well. That would be crazy with Watt and Mosely and getting a top 5 QB 1 1

If we are looking at JJ as the guy to give us the outside edge rush we have lacked then that isn't him at this stage for me. 1
machine gun kelly Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 I know I’m a pain in the butt with a bunch of fantasy stuff, but this one makes sense. STOP GETTING ME SO EXCITED! I’m in boys! Make it happen Beane. I hate this as I sound like a Madden kid. Just think about Star, Oliver, Jerrah (ours), and JJ. Edmunds would have a cake walk in his job. Jefferson, Butler, and even Addison should start worrying. Cut Brown and maybe we could even keep Williams, Mongo, Ford comes back, draft what we need, and sign a TE in FA. This morning they pointed out an experienced TE is critical as so few blow up in the draft. Cant wait for September, maybe.
gordong Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 keep this dude in a bubble during the season and turn him loose in the playoffs... Sign him Beane!

GunnerBill Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 I think the logical place if he wants to ring chase is Green Bay. Home state, NFC (weaker conference) and they run the scheme he has played in his whole pro career. 1 1
LABILLBACKER Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 If we get him he will be the most amazing defensive pick up ever. If we don't he will be an aging bust who we should've stayed clear of. These will be the 2 fan narratives. Wait for it...... 2

I think this supposed 'decline in production' is a direct result of who he was playing with...name one other texans defensive linemen lol I cant...watt was probably doubled all season
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 Pittsburgh makes too much sense. I suspect he doesn’t even care about the money. Gets to play with both his brothers and on the no. 1 defense in the league.
LabattBlue Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 Haven't been paying super close attention to the situation in Houston. Just read this article. Holy cow what a trainwreck in Houston... https://www.battleredblog.com/2021/2/8/22272208/houston-texans-dismiss-multiple-employees

Contender yes. Buffalo will probably talk to him if he is interested. Starting is not important. He is now a situational player that would benefit from rotation. It will prolong his career. He is a veteran and he knows that. 1 1

They still have Merciless as an edge rushing linebacker. I don't think he is the player he was a couple of years back but he can still be a very effective player if used correctly. Just not sure that "correctly" is rushing off the edge in a 4-3.
eball Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 Hey, maybe Beane can sign him on the cheap. Had to be said.

letsgoteam Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 1 hour ago, ExWNYer said: Doubtful unless he plans to sign for the vet minimum (not happening). Pittsburgh is currently about $30 million over the cap and has their own FAs to sign. And he wants to win a ring. If the Stillers run it back with Roethlisberger or even a rookie this year, they are not a true contender, IMO. They are close to entering 'drought era Bills' territory until they find a franchise QB, regardless of their D. Interesting, thanks. I didnt realize where they were cap wise, etc.
