Looking back probably expected to much for a guy who was out so long. Hopefully can get back to his old forum. Like his potential in that big end in Bradley system.

Very good, albeit not that major news. Yes we probably expected too much from him initially and he needed to find his legs.  
 

I think he could still be a really good pickup for us.  He’s got the length and pass rush we need.  He’s good versus the run.  And he can play all over the line.  Hes probably not going to start but he can be a real contributor for us.

I wonder what the contract details are.  Hopefully long term for a very affordable price.  If he does end up getting back into form then his contract could result in a steal.  We'll see.

Will have an off-season to get ready, could be an impact type player for use. I like the move, low risk high reward. 

[NCOUGHMAN 1,133]

Hope he’s committed to playing and not just getting a quick check

Shouldn't cost much. Getting his feet wet in 2020 he should be ready for a much better season hopefully low risk/high reward but...

won't change our offseason plans, but a nice low risk/ mid upside signing. With the state of the DL, prolly makes the team. He's actually been good in the past, unlike most on the DL.

Great news. He was in mediocre shape because he was out of the game. Give him a full offseason and he could be disruptive with Hurst. We still need a vet/draft DT IMO. But good to have him back.

Good rotation. He can play edge and 3tec.  With his atheltisum he could be a threat on rotation if he getsband stays healthy.

My offseason targets were to re-sign Irving and get another big 5T/3T hybrid in Roy Robertson-Harris.  Irving is more boom or bust but both would be good low cost signings.  Nice that we brought back Irving.  He really just needs some time to get back in shape.  May never reach his peak from his Cowboy days but can still become a solid contributor.  Good luck sir.

To be honest based on his history and talent, I think he has the potential to be hey Darren Waller type steal on the Defense with a good offseason and he stays healthy. It also gives us a little bit of flexibility to get an outside pass rusher like Jalen Phillips or Azeez Ojalari. I personally also wouldn't mind Barmore even with this move.

At least we won't have to hear the usual suspects whine when he makes one play for another team.
