I like it. Worth a shot.

Will be interesting to see how we’re gonna use him 

Agreed. We have needs at OLB. Perhaps he replaces Chinn.

Not sure how it has anything to do with Burns

we could fit them all on the field. it's possible. but Reddick is taking a 1 year deal to prove that last year wasn't a one off in order to secure that big contract. he's only 26. if he is productive, we might be the team that ponies up. 

good players are never redundant, but when you see an edge added to a group that already has a TON of talent at that position, it's eyebrow raising. you can find field enough for all of these guys, but it wouldn't make us very balanced,. texans are rumored to want defense and people were saying perhaps chinn or burns in that deal with 3 first round picks gets it done. the team really likes haynes and miller.

heading into the offseason, I wanted this guy but didn't think we could afford him.  And here he is.  

Best news of the month so far.

He is a pretty small pass rush specialist that was a one year wonder. I think that his open market value was likely about what we got him for or a little less.

Given that Reddick will be used as a stand up edge rusher it is worth mentioning that this MIGHT be a heads up over Burns inclusion in any Houston trade 

Let's see...

Houston signs a QB...

Carolina signs an edge player when they already have Burns and YGM. Sure seems like the puzzle pieces are coming together. Wouldn't be surprised to see the Watson trade go down with Burns included in the trade.

Moving from Burns and Chinn in our front seven to Reddick, Haynes and Miller would probably result in the worst front seven in franchise history. That is a disturbing thought.

Was scared we would sign Reddick to a long contract/big contract based on his production in his contract year.  But this? Essentially another prove it deal where he either proves it and stays, signs elsewhere for big money and nets us a comp pick, or sucks and is gone after a year?  

Perfect

Maybe not, but are we going to a 34 defense?  Reddick and Perryman both seem to signal a chance. Short cut, Kerr cut, no replacements.

Roy in the middle, YGM and Brown at DE's

Perryman and Thompson in the middle. Reddick and Burns on the edges.

Chinn to safety.

All our pure DTs are NTs--yes, it seems we are

Fox just adds to this

Fox on and Roy off on passing downs?

The Cardinals did not want to lose him---Rhule and Snow must have played a big role.  The D just got scary today.  About that CB---

This may move Chinn back to S more.

Fox is a 275 lb 3/4 DE, based on his size--It will be interesting to see what they do with him.  This is like Christmas.  The Draft--what we have left of it if we sign DW, just got offensive.
