Adetekunbo Ogundeji - 541 snaps, 2 sacks, 0 hits, 4 hurries, 10 tackle attempts missed, 53.8 PFF run grade Bud Dupree - 453 snaps, 4 sacks, 4 hits, 21 hurries, 4 tackle attempts missed, 61.8 PFF run grade Dupree may not have been good enough for Tennessee, but for the third guy in the pass rush rotation here, he's plenty good. Neither? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's Ebiketie's backup at WDE/Jack LB. Also, I don't think you realize just how bad the pass rush in Atlanta has been the past two seasons.

BStanRamFan Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Houston Texans. Love the talent on paper. Will Anderson, Sheldon Rankins, Jimmie Ward, Derek Stingley, Jimmie Ward. And obviously new HC Demeco Ryans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't think adding another bad pass rusher makes that better. Like, you can't say one guy is cut-worthy when Dupree is on your roster because he got cut. They kind of all suck, from what we've seen of them so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dupree got cut because his contract was bloated and Tennessee needed cap space. Dupree at his contract in Tennessee was cut worthy. Dupree at the 1 year, 2.5-3.0M isn’t. Low cost, should improve the rotation. The numbers don’t lie. He’s a productive disruptive in a rotation. His role here is no. 3 edge defender. It’s a massive upgrade over 6 pressure Ogundeji to go to 30 pressure Dupree. No matter how you cut it.

Yards don't matter if you don't let them score points (or hold them to FGs every drive) Total yards can be misleading (time of possession for example), but much much much less misleading than points allowed. And yards per play allowed isn't misleading at all. If the offense turns the ball over on their own five yard line and the defense allows a TD, that goes against them for points allowed which is stupid. And that doesn't even factor in that most people don't separate defensive TDs allowed when assessing discussing that stat. And of course as a team points is all that matters - they want to win and don't care how - but if you want to look at the best stat to assess how good a team truly is, yards per play is better than points Edited June 18, 2023 by FrantikRam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
