thebandit27 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Pass. Great player when he's motivated, but too many off-field issues and on-field lapses for me. I'll go the value route and sign either DaQuan Jones or Justin Ellis. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat68 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Idk if Richardson will be the guy considering the last over priced DT they just traded away. Tackle is certainly a need though. Im curious to see how the organization moves forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NastyNateSoldiers Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 The draft is loaded at DT plus we have Washington going into his 3rd yr he can be a bright surprise for us next yr so we just need a run stopper next to him. Id rather spend our money on the Oline and our #2 Corner. Sign Chris Hubbard and Cameron Fleming that opens up trading Cordy for a pk. Sign CB Kyle Fuller from Chicago he's a young player that's developing nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I don’t see this happening. McDermott is all about a rotating defensive line, so I don’t see him overpaying for one piece of that. Also, his character doesn’t fit the bill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they pay Fleming anything above the league-minimum, then they haven't been paying attention IMO. Fuller would be a huge get, but he's going to get PAID IMO.

Guest K-GunJimKelly12 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 No way McBeane brings in an expensive DT with character issues after just shipping out Marcel and taking on that cap hit for next season. I think Star Lotulelei is almost a lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddaryl Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I'd rather sign Cousins and draft the best DT at 21 or 22 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnCoke11 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 They will over pay to get Star. Can easily see them doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use your pks on best available with the holes we have we should find day one starters no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washington was so low-impact that it's hard to really count on him for anything.............but he is still very young being 23 this season. That third round is not a great place to pick guys with motivation/effort issues in their past, IMO......... because once they get their signing bonus they are basically playing at or near league minimum salary from there on out..........which doesn't provide a great deal of motivation to do more than the minimum if the dude is sure he can catch on elsewhere. That's what happened with Goodwin here.........he had the Bills over a barrel because he knew with his speed he could get that minimum paycheck somewhere else if the Bills cut him so he had the leverage to tap out everytime he got a boo-boo so he could go train for Rio.

K-9 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I'd be shocked if McBeane brought in Richardson. He's an immature headcase and completely devoid of the required "football" character to maximize his talent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphadawg7 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I would love to see us grab our DT in FA like Star, Sheldon or Poe. Then we can use the draft assets to focus on QB, LB and OL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That kind of money splash probably keep TT as our starter next year which means another 12 months of all the TT threads!! 23 minutes ago, K-9 said: I'd be shocked if McBeane brought in Richardson.

Jamie Muellers Ghost Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 (edited) Does Gil know something we don't ? Maybe we will have a 3rd back for Glenn ? I'm surprised some of the Vea chatter has calmed down myself although it may pick back up again post combine.

He plays with passion when he feels like it. No amount of coaching is going to change that. If coaches like Bowles and Carroll can't harness it, nobody will as no amount of coaching can instill football character. Is there a chance he suddenly grows up and figures it out? Perhaps, but at 27 years old, I have my doubts. Not worth the investment to find out, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greeneblitz Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 BS, if Shelden Richardson was already a Buffalo Bill, he would've been dumped with Dareus and Watkins for attitude issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 10 hours ago, Finkle Is Einhorn said: I think it would be a mistake to spend a lot of money in free agency on a defensive tackle this year given that it's the deepest most loaded position group in this draft class. There are guys you could draft who could come in and contribute right away for a fraction of the cost and a lot younger. In a 43 system - expect to be dedicating a lot to the line. With only Kyle at DT it is likely wise to add both an impact free agent and an impact draft pick up front Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankoElTanko Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 No way. He's good (when he decides to be...) but I would rather have Dontari Poe for 5-6mil or DaQuan Jones for similar money. I hope/it is (what i think to be) more likely to be Star. I do hope however we do not mortgage the rest of our line by throwing a ton of coin at Star. I agree with DC Orange in that he has not played as well the last few years so I would hope he signs for a (little bit) of a McD connection-esque discount. Or give me Poe and draft H.Phillips in the second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
