AlexGreen#20 Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 No DL help is gonna be a miss for me on every one of these. The signings aren't realistic with the cap numbers. Having two very highly paid receivers and then spending a first round pick on one is just not good team building strategy. AJ Green sounds reluctant to leave Cincinnati. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would give the offense the players it needs to be successful (legitimately, we only have 1 top 75 draft pick contributing at skilled positions). I know people will hate on this for not taking an IDL early, but I get it. We really only use 2,, with another year of development you have to think Gary will play the Datone Jones Elephant end role, Lowry and Lancaster aren't terrible, and you have to hope for a Keke or Adams contribution as well with more development. Problem being, we don't have 2 IDL ... Lowry and Lancaster aren't even average anyway you look at it. M. Adams has been given every chance on the defensive line and hasn't done squat. I don't mind getting some skilled players on offense but we sure could use at least 1 IDL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancaster is a plus run defender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't have guys getting 1 v 1 pass rushing matchups who aren't a threat. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a top DL talent that will be there when we draft? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not; our defense is nothing special talent wise in the middle except for Clark and it shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Brown is the only blue chip IDL in this draft and he'll be long gone by the 20s. But there are a couple of solid options that should be available who can probably help us.

And when Green is out for the year by week 10 and the rookie isn't getting the ball thrown to him because he accidentally used the entree fork instead of the salad fork at the team dinner, we're going to have the same problem. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
