Haven’t played yet cause I keep forgetting to post. But screw it, I’ll say svech for the win

Even if he was healthy, the team was looking for two edge starters.

Going into this past season, he was considered by many a top 10 edge in the NFL. His advanced metrics are off the charts, even last year in a down year they were still really good.

Good deal for the giants and for Burns. His 5 year 141m deal is basically a 3 year 90m deal

We signed two rotational players at edge. That’s it. Still need two starters at edge

The 6.7 and the 9 for win rate and pass rush success was from this past season for DJ. Just this past season. He was ranked 43rd out of 51 pass rushers with 300 rush attempts. https://heavy.com/sports/minnesota-vikings/dj-wonnum-extension-danielle-hunter-davenport/amp/

Pff has them in their breakdown and has him with a 55 rush grade. Burns was a 75 rush grade. Similar rush defense grades. https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-2024-nfl-free-agency-rankings-edge-defenders the other stats are from a Vikings free agency outlook breakdown hea considered a 3rd down only pass rush rotational player. He shouldn’t be starting at all and should be at least your 3rd de

No I was thinking of pressure rate, do had one of the lowest pressure rates and win rates in the NFL last season. 9% and 8% I believe. Burns was around double that rate or higher while facing double the amount of double team blocks. the reason the stats are similar is because DJ had way more pass rush opportunities compared to Burns.

Burns was double the pressures with over 40. Rest of the stats are very similar

Our first round pick back at #1 or the following a pro bowl qb A trio of good wr’s 2 starting caliber edge players a nfl level oline a winning record this season or Tepper to sell the team tonight before I go to sleep

Here’s a few more that have good information. https://www.dailynorseman.com/2017/4/12/15274148/most-nfl-draft-picks-are-busts https://www.the33rdteam.com/the-hidden-reality-of-draft-value-part-1/ https://www.the33rdteam.com/assessing-first-round-hit-rate-at-every-nfl-position/ i had a few posts a few years back breaking it down in detail somewhere on the site. lol

Latest reports are saying they just started negotiations on the extension

With the current rules, that’s brilliant by Vegas. He won’t play til the playoffs and is on LTIR, so won’t impact their cap space this season at all.

If the active player is Bunting, then a high end prospect is going back in the trade.

Huge if true

I’m used to us being the dumbest team in the NFL since Tepper bought the team. I’m honestly shocked they did something smart

If he gets tagged, it will be the exclusive tag. They want a long term deal with him.

He was my qb #3 in the draft.

What a bunch of idiots. Just why..

The roster is pretty bad, got to give them time to churn the roster and rebuild it: especially after Reich

Ehhhhh... Not surprised since he's been on the interviews for the head coach from the start.

Not what I meant, was saying that unless the oline is replaced there isn't a point to playing BY unless you're running power run with play action. He's going to get hit and beat up again for a second straight season otherwise.

Remember last year and the qb being sacked a lot and the oline looking terrible? Every single player on the oline and most of the depth is power run, play action type of line. If you wanted to switch from that, you'd have to replace nearly everyone currently on roster playing oline. The other option is letting Young get destroyed again for another season. :shrugs: it's depressing. Lol

ESPN posted them going into last week's games. It's part of the line play win rate article. He had 7 sacks on 168 pass rush opportunities going into week 18. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/38356170/2023-nfl-pass-rush-run-stop-blocking-win-rate-rankings-top-players-teams

He was 6th in pass rush win rate and had 8 sacks on one of the lowest pass rush opportunities amounts. I'm confused about this topic, it's like no one here understands line play at all. He 8 sacks on 180ish pass rush opportunities. The players above him in sacks are in the 270-300+ pass rush opportunities range.
