Damione Lewis Probability

I have seen/heard a lot of fans questioning our ability at DT after the cuts but did anyone catch the rotoworld report when he got cut? If not, here it is:

I'm sure that this is Hurney's plan. He inserted that roster bonus so we could cut him without penalty (if the cap were still in place) and then resign him to a cheaper market-value deal. I hope this is the case because outside of the top few DTs in the draft (all 1st rounders) I don't see anyone I like. Lewis is a solid role player and I'm sure he'd like to come back and play for us if he doesn't get a better offer.

I already threw it out there.. Brayton, Lewis, and L Johnson could be coming back...

perhaps Johnson is gone already... I dont remember, nor do I care.. but it doesn't sound so crazy anymore by this post.. It must be true now that someone made a thread on it. :)

L.Johnson already signed with the Lions & we know Brayton already signed to come back last week. I hope you already know this or just playing around. :boxing_smiley:

I'd really like to see Lewis back. IMO he's been the most underrated player on the D the last couple seasons. He doesn't have the size or talent to be an elite DT but he has the effort and drive to be a very solid contributor. I never recall seeing him dogging it or not pursuing a ball carrier downfield. I like the way he plays.

Brayton is back already, Johnson signed a one-year deal with Detroit.

Whoops, got beat to the punch.

Lewis is a good DT but he was just getting payed way too much for what he did. I really wish we could get Diggs back but I doubt that would happen cause he prob would beat out everyone else at LB and they want Connor to step up.

We have Johnson, Irvin, Tyler, and Leonard....with Brayton being able to slide in on passing downs.

I doubt we carry 5 true DT's next season. Tehrefore, signing Lewis would mean letting one of the above go. I just don't see that happening.

Hayden not included? we could drop his ass.. or did I miss him being released?

    • You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.
    • It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
