Expand Late September? More like late November/December. Trey White had tough time after a year of rehab and seamed to have lost a step at age 26 last season, Von Miller is 33 years old and most likely will need additional rehab time. We will need help between September of next season through December, hope our D-line can step up if nothing happens. Quote

Expand Well, Miller is claiming he'll be back for the season, We'll See. IMO, the signing we may need is a 3TDT. The only one on the roster is Ed Oliver. If we get someone who can play both outside and in, that'd be good. If we're getting more pressure up the middle, it will give more chances to the DE we already have invested multiple #1 and #2 draft picks on.

It comes from McDermott's rather fierce insistence in a rotation on DL. If the coaches take the view that the team must have 8 quality DLmen, it has the impact of requiring massive resources on DL in terms of draft picks and FA investment. It means we need to have 8 guys who are starting quality instead of 4 guys who are Beasts. Quote

Expand If I were a betting man, which I am not, I think its LB, Edge, WR or TE with a small chance a DT. It doesn’t matter where the offensive weapon comes from as long as there is a plan for him to be on the field. They aren’t going to draft RT in the first round to compete with Spencer Brown. It’s not happening. And they are not drafting a guard. Zero shot. Quote

I would like to see us bring in a RT in FA, not a Big Shot guy but if possible, someone a bit better than Quessenberry who can challenge Brown. LB or Edge would make me very sad after the high-value picks used on these positions recently. Quote

Warriorspikes51 Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 (edited) Robert Quinn. 32. 1 sack last year….18.5 the year before. Put him in rotation. If he’s healthy, maybe you get good sack production Melvin Ingram. 33. Bills killer. Doubt he’d come here though. The guy has obliterated our Oline with PIT, KC and MIA Leonard Floyd. 30. 9 or more sacks each of the last 3 seasons. Was very effective playing with Von on LA Yannick Ngakoue. 27. 19.5 sacks over last 2 seasons. Likely too expensive Frank Clark. 29. 3rd all time in playoff sacks. Likely out of our price range It’s discouraging to not notice Epenesa or Basham for the majority of games. Personally, I’d like to add 2 veteran pass rushers to go along with Von and Greg Edited March 18, 2023 by Warriorspikes51 Quote
GreggTX Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 I don't expect or want a big $ solution unless it's an elite talent under age 27. I'm still hoping for a big upgrade on the OL in FA. Also, Devon Levi signs with the Sabres! Super excited to see him play. I don't know if he'll excel right away, but I think his future is very bright. He's exactly what we need. Quote
