AZBearsFan Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Boom. Even if he only plays on obvious pass downs this such an obvious big upgrade. One year deal doesn’t affect next year’s cap and hits most of the cap floor money we need to spend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guys we added this offseason with Walker, Billings and Green are all guys who are effective at stopping the run. Ngakoue doesn’t need to be put in a position to have to stop the run very often. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were required to. Unless we were going to extend someone and significantly frontload the deal, this is a minimal downside signing. And even then, the cap is so easy to manipulate I'd go as far as saying zero downside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Flus puts him as a full time DE then it is just showing (imo) he is out of his depth as the HC. I'm hopeful he is the longterm answer but I've yet to really see anything from him that puts him as a "good" coach. 2 hours ago, Pool said: officially in win now mode "Win 8 games now mode" has been activated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And claimed Roy off waivers. Remember how so many said Tonga wasn't a fit for the defense because he's a one dimensional run-stuffing NT?

MonserinNC Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 This is one year and money we needed to spend.... I almost fell like people wanted a big name signing in order to just hate on it haha....I literally expect nothing but a slight upgrade over Gipson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epyon Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Yeah 1 year and relatively low money tbh. Gives us some much needed pass rush, and Y N a chance to showcase himself for next year's FA market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
