Oh wow. Surprised that they brought in Sterns after talking up Woods, Fuller, Scott, and Cooke all week. Does he play nickel as well?

Can't help but think that this doesn't bode well for Sam Franklin unless they're planning on starting him on the PUP... but it could also just be kicking the tires on a guy familiar with the system that's had a history with injuries.

A good history with a coach gets consideration that the average washed up guy might not get.We don’t know what it is exactly.  Also works for the coach, with the good players.

Sterns is a jabroni.

We've been trash at safety and OL for the entirety of our existence. So yeah, sign em all.

The Special Juan has a purpose on occasion.  I personally like his posts and attitude when he gets attacked by the Huddle haters.  I am a supporter.

The best part of this post is the supporting details.

In 2021 and 2022 he had 2 picks.  In 2022, he had a 76.4 PFF Score--he has a chance here.  Only 24.

It's good to bring in a guy familiar with Evero. There's almost no position group on the roster that doesn't need additional competition. I really can't think of a single starter on the defense aside from Derrick Brown whose job should be safe.

Failed physical. Looks like those injuries have done a number on him already. That sucks.
