DT Colin Cole coming back

[R0CKnR0LLA]

I don't think I knew Cole was Canadian.

 

you can tell by his beady eyes and flappy head

. It's a place they could save a couple hundred thousand on a young guy like Gaydosh, and sure, that's still possible I guess.

 

 

Not necessarily a savings with gay.

 

When qualified, a player with more than two years of NFL experience can earn his total minimum salary, but have a cap figure that reflects two years of experience – or in 2014, $570,000. The contract must be for only one year, and must not contain combined bonus money (signing, roster, workout) that exceeds $65,000.

For instance, Shayne Graham recently re-signed with the New Orleans Saints on a 1 year $955,000 contract. With more than two years of experience (12), and a 1 year contract, Graham qualfies for the cap hit benefit. His 2014 cap figure will be $570,000 in New Orleans.

Had he received a signing bonus of the maximum $65,000, he would have received a $1.02 million contract, with a $955,000 base salary, a $65,000 signing bonus, and a cap figure of $635,000 (570+65).

With plenty of veterans being released, or not signed back thus far in 2014, the use of the Minimum Salary Benefit Rule becomes useful both for older players looking for jobs, and teams looking to minimize their cap dollars.

How many DTs do we carry on the roster?

[WOW!!]

We can carry 5 DE and 5 DT. 10 to 9 players on the D line is pretty normal fo this team.

Molly Hog.

Molly hogs should play a big favctor in our pass rush and run stopping this season.

We're one of the few teams in the NFL that have this kind of D-line depth.

4 last year.

 

We have Hardy and Alexander who can move inside in a pinch, and a backup OL who can play DT -- I don't expect us to exceed 4.  I think Gaydosh is a 2-year project anyway, especially after his injury.  Year 3 would be a perfect time to step up because Edwards is in his last year.

 

Cole and Star will man the nose.  Shorty and Edwards will man the 3-tech.  (I think the DL is set)

Can he play LT?

 

No he can't..........thanks for asking.

 

 

 

PS........... his signing does add strength to the dline and allows us to pursue other positions of need in the draft.

Yee. Now let's hope that Gettleman does actually sign him.

[Rise of The Hive]

I guess I am glad to have him back.
