Many people have commented that Settle is a really DT that just didn’t get the snaps with Washington. I think he’s going to step into a pretty big role in Buffalo - I think he’s starting 1TDT…I don’t see Phillips coming back 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hebert19 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I'm good with. It opens up WR and CB in draft. Just need a chandler Jones sighting and we are good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be my guess, that Harry has had an offer beyond how we value him I think people expecting a Star cut may be disappointed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 https://washingtonfootballwire.usatoday.com/lists/washington-commanders-2022-free-agency-preview-tim-settle-will-have-options-nfl-free-agent/ The above link states that in 2020, despite only playing 33% of the defensive snaps on the season, Settle had five sacks and ten pressures. Sounds to me like he just needs some opportunity, which he should get in Buffalo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jokeman Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) 46 minutes ago, Process said: Never heard of him. Does he actually fill the need at DT or is he just a backup depth guy? I do like that we are adding to the lines in FA. Use our early draft picks on the big money positions (WR, CB). He's an underrated guy. I didn't think we had a chance as his age. I also saw him as a backup to Oliver but he should replace Phillips but as a better pass rusher.

Sounds to me like he just needs some opportunity, which he should get in Buffalo then he drops to 20% of the snaps in 2021? Is that not a red flag? Probably an upgrade over Phillips who really only played a few good games in Buffalo. Agree with others, this may mean no DT in the early rounds of the draft opening up a chance to grab a WR, edge, OT, or maybe another TE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donuts and Doritos Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) Is this an upgrade over Phillips? If it isn't then it's a step back. (Guess we won't know till they start playing games). Meanwhile the Chargers are building a scary team adding Mack & now JC Jackson. Edited March 14, 2022 by Donuts and Doritos 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I'm reading through all the comments on Adam Schefter's Tweet announcing this signing, and it's a whole lot of WFT/Commanders fans saying how good he is, how they wanted him back, how Buffalo got a real gem. Usually, when a free agent leaves a team to sign elsewhere, fans of his former team defensively say that he's overrated, overpriced, they aren't sorry to see him go, whatever. Not the case here. Every WFT/Commanders fan that responds in the comment -- every single one -- has nothing but good things to say about Tim Settle. 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope not at all. Not like Washington has been good at evaluating talent over the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only played that many snaps in 2020 because of injury to Matt Ionaidis. The WFT D-line is STACKED. Chase Young, DaRon Payne, Matt Ionaidis, Montez Sweat. Whole lotta talent in front of Settle, and not every team rotates their d-line as heavily as McDermott does. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ioannadis was injured week 3 in 2020 and missed the rest of the season…..back in 2021…..hence the drop in snaps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Jonathan Allen as well. They really are one of the best in the NFL. Reminds me of the drought years with the Bills, how we wasted a number of REALLY good defensive units. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
