Why do we need 10 offensive linemen? How is this guy more valuable than Boogie Basham when we only have two DEs under contract for next year? 🤔

 

Now that he's signed, I think Alec Anderson is Practice Squad bound. Not sure we keep 10 on the OL.

Dude... that's not Carolina

 

So what.  It's just as bad that he played against Carolina...

By the time Ifedi signs (I hope it's not too quick) something else happens OR teams will have established 53's and PS's and Anderson

clears waivers with no problem.

 

As for Ifedi, I hope he can keep his penalties to a minimum.  It seems a bit of an issue.

Which position group do you think we need to add to?

 

Only things I saw as realistic moves is a vet OT (which we just added) and perhaps another option at backup QB instead of Kyle Allen. 

 

Everyone wants a LB, but I don't see it. Wouldn't be against it. But I think we're gonna roll with what we have there rather than have a guy learning the Defensive QB position on the fly.

He is a possible candidate for backup RT. Only allowed 1 pressure throughout preseason. There's more clips in that Twitter thread from Erik Turner.

 

EDIT: Now signed.

 

 

 

"expected to sign" not "signed"

Betting he waits until after we can IR a couple guys

We need 8 OL active on game day.

Since they tend to get injured, 10 is not unreasonable - we've kept that many before

 

How many DE and DT do you think we ought to keep?  In case you've lost track, we've currently got 10 DL plus Von Miller on the roster....

 

so we should keep 11 DL plus Miller and only 9 OL?

Makes sense.  I think we have 1 roster opening (shorter and Spector to IR, and bring back Reid).  So not sure we need to cut Anderson, yet.

 

I'd be for signing a better version of Dodson, which is what Kirksey brings I think.  But agree, it will come down to whether Coach is comfortable with 2 weeks for him, thoughts on Bernard, perhaps Klein (if he's on P/S) is break glass if Kirksey is slow on uptake of defense.  

 

Think we have options to bring in Kirksey, over Dodson, and at worse turn to Klein/Bernard week 1.  That'd be the only move I see at this point.

He'll fit right in...

 

False starts on the OL is a tough thing.  It's almost an involuntary reaction which is hard to coach out.

I hope the whole line is more disciplined.

Think they like Kingsley Jonathon and while not signed I think the team still has control as a restricted Free Agency.

They only have 5 playable WR and maybe 4 playable LB's plus Matakevich...........so I think they could easily carry 10 on the OL while developing Van Demark and Anderson on the 53.

Keep Dodson and cut Matakevich.
