Robby Anderson was not the best signing of the offseason

Zach Kerr is. He currently sits as the 12th best IDL in the league according to PFF, and he has been a massive disruptor on that D-line. He also seems to be a great locker room guy. The craziest part is that we sign him to a 2 years, $3,000,000 contract with an average annual salary of $1,500,000. This was the steal of the offseason in my opinion.

I agree, dude has been a pleasant surprise.  In fact I'd say he's gotten better and better every week as the season wears on.  I didn't even know he was 30 until I checked.

Kerr's probably a short term guy, similar to Kyle Love.

But I agree, he's been good.

[Ted Ginn Jr.'s Hands]

It is nice to have a defensive lineman outperform his contract this year.

[Beerfacedlegend]

He’s been better than brown lol , all jokes aside we should cut kk short

[Ship]

We’ve always done well to have a guy like Kerr in the rotation from Dwan to Love to Kerr

In just 28 snaps yesterday, Zach Kerr had a career-high 8 tackles, a strip sack that was returned for a TD and a pass deflection.

Made that comparison myself--prolly where you stole it!  (kidding) Love stayed here about what, 4 seasons?  Kept getting those 1-year deals.

We could just tell ourselves that he's getting paid KK's money and it's not being wasted...

I guarantee certain posters are scouring the internet to try and find some loose connection between Kerr and Rhule to avoid giving even a morsel of credit to Hurney for this signing lol.

"Well you see, Kerr's second cousin's neighbor actually was a freshman during Rhule's last year coaching at Temple and took a sports psychology course, so he MUST have ran into Rhule at some point and told him how great of a football player Kerr was".

I get pretty tired of the Hurney vs. the coaching staff nonsense. That is a 50/50 blame and 50/50 credit, IMO. We don't actually have any idea what percentage that each specific player was which person's idea. This is the same all the time and at every franchise. The only surefire blame is the coach/GM scenario. Those guys are always 100% to blame and get 100% credit.

Kerr has been a great addition and a perfect partner for Brown.  He plays with passion and enjoys being on the field.  Of all the players we have it seems he enjoying play a kids game more than anyone we have.

I love his chatter too.

True, roster building (draft, FA, etc.) is always a synergistic, collaborative effort between head coach and GM.  People who espouse claims like "Thank GOD we handed drafting duties over to Rhule and co. this year" are clearly driven by an agenda.  Then these same people in another thread are arguing about how dumb Hurney was to sign Teddy this offseason...like, huh?  At least try to be consistent.

So far the Hurney/Rhule experiment seems to be a lot more promising than Hurney/Rivera and Hurney/Fox, at least as far as roster talent.  Way too early to tell, though.
