nlesthought Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I think Sidney has the tool set to play some nickel/slot CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles $5$ Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 The only upgrade we could made on defense right now is cut Rodney McLeod and sign Honey Badger... lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you can honestly make that assumption. We'll find out in TC who fits best where. We have a decent amount of talent at corner, but it remains to be seen who fits best where to make the whole unit as effective as possible. We have 4 corners who could be playing themselves into a starting position in Darby, Mills, Jones, and Douglas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont want Smallwood just getting the spot as an incumbent. That'd be awesome... if we had a 3rd round pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see anyone giving up a 4th for Curry let alone more. A run stopping DE on a big contract? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget about Daryl Worley, I mean he was a starter with Carolina last year and had a nice year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

808 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Darby and Jones outside Mills gets first crack at slot, unfortunately Douglas and Worley are outside depth need slot depth, and need a 3rd safety. might be able to switch a CB to S, but I worry about the tackling. Either way, we need to add at least one more starter/role player to secondary in FA or draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiltman Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Would be ok with bringing Blount back, but I think we should just draft a back or two in the middle rounds. The trend the last 5 or so years is some guy in there will be a star...even if it is only for 4 years. Not having to resign Ajayi and having a guy on a mid round contract will be nice for our cap situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curry doesn't have good pass rushing numbers because he was taken off the field every 3rd down. Doesn't mean he can't. Just means that we chose to give those snaps to our better pass rushers. He's a good all around DE. Is expensive though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conversely, Bennett is better at rushing the passer but MUCH worse at run defending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a double digit guy but will pressure the QB and be a very good defender. If a team has some extra cash, he's worth it. Bennet is ok. It won't be an extreme drop off. He'll take advantage of playing on that line, just like Curry did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjapirate Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I don't think any of our signings will qualify against comp picks so should get 2 still with Allen probably getting us a third? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeSean Jackson Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I’d be down to release McLeod and curry to be able to sign Mathieu. He fits our scheme so perfect. McLeod takes 10 mill off our books next season. Curry 10 mill. Saves 20 million for next season and we get the better upgrade at safety. Better yet trade curry to browns.
