And, for what ever reason, he’s been a player that O’Connell has brought up by name during press conferences this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede700 Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 I personally wouldn't jump to conclusions with any of these free agent signings...they might make the team, they might not. Let's not forget that Datone Jones was signed in the middle of March by the Vikings in 2017. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he did, but he wasn't exactly lighting it up before he got injured, which I believe happened late in preseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With his 6'3" frame I'd like him to be a little heavier than his listed weight of 225. Curious to see how he progresses this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious to see how he progresses this year. I see he's listed at 225, but I believe he has played at as high as 245 before, or at the very least has the frame to play at that weight, considering his height and wingspan.

SteelKing728 Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 I never cared much for Dye, but he's a good STer. Same with Josh Metellus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
