Yeah it's hard for me to keep up as well and it doesn't help that his guy is a scrub and I've never heard his name in my life. Ok not a scrub, but you know what I mean.

He played for our DC. That means a bit more than what fans of a team 2/3 the way across the country know about him.

I am certainly not mad about the signing as I don't know anything about him. I'm just pointing out that it's easy to be in the dark right now.

If this guy and Tuttle are our starting DEs, Bell is our staring S

On offense, Miles Sanders starts at RB, Bozeman starts at C, and Hurst starts at TE.

We have not added a WR or two, and Fitterer has already upgraded 6/22 positions.  Once he signs a WR and we draft a QB, in one year we will have upgraded 8/22 starting positions.   That is over 36% of the starters.  In addition, you put Burns and Chinn in position to be more effective.

5 sacks last year I'm not gonna complain about from an IDL. I know 3-4 is different but just sayin'. Plus he knows the D system and grew up a Panthers fan

Very serviceable player for good value. Here’s my rundown.

Williams: 4.5 sacks, 8 QB hits, 4 TFL, 37 total tackles, 15 games started

Derrick Brown: 1 sack, 12 QB hits, 5 TFL, 67 total tackles.

Brown was a stud last year and honestly Williams could easily take the next step in his career. Great value signing that will be a contributor at the minimum next year.

Seems out of place on this defense

Thought you were mistaken until I looked up his size. YGM is 6-5 265 …. Yikes perfect for 4-3 which we all know he has sucked. His size is to small for Edge in a 3-4 and to big for linebacker because he isn’t athletic enough.

Soooo  are we really rolling with Derrick Brown at NT or will we get another huge Hog Molly outside of McCall. 
 

Derrick Brown at NT is such a waste isn’t it ?  Nose tackle or 1 techniques purpose is to eat up blocks. I guess he could rotate to nose on obvious passing downs but yikes it seems like we need another big true nose.

It's been confirmed Derrick Brown will be playing one of the DE spots

To be fair, I don’t think any WR he signs from FA will be an upgrade over DJ Moore. A bit nit picky I know, but I’d say 7/22 is more accurate.

It’s been stated over and over that Tuttle was signed as a NT.  Team sources confirmed it.  He played a ton of snaps at NT for the Saints last year.

      Redzone Offense vs. KC by drive

      By Icege · Posted

      NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.

      Crazy stat

      The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
