How many times did a qb slip out of Jerry Hughes' mitts at the last second last season by stepping up in the pocket? I felt like Hughes had a massive pressure season that went unrewarded with sacks.

DT's that fill the plugger role never make the message board HOF's but they're extremely important of course. We need stuffers, even if he just eats blocks routinely at 8-9 million a year, that's basically what Marcell Dareus did at 18-19 million a year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrod's friend Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I'm betting that Star upgrades himself in getting to join his buddies too. Ultimately this deal will cover his years from 29-31 and I'm guessing at $30-35MM guarenteed. In today's world that's not bad. Just wait and see what Solder gets.

Did Sal get hit in the head in camp last year? If the Bills fed him that take they are just f*cking with him at this point. Lotulelei is there to shore up the run.........he will have virtually no impact on the passing game...........you want a DT who can keep the QB from stepping up in the pocket get a DT who can collapse it and get in the backfield.

Meazy26 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Of course you have to overpay for guys this early into FA. Star will probably be our Micah Hyde big splash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave mcbride Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 As of December 3rd this past season, Hughes was 5th in the league in QB pressures. Yet he had only 3 sacks. This signing helps change that. http://billswire.usatoday.com/2017/12/03/tom-brady-bill-belichick-jerry-hughes-nfl-week-13/ Hughes, who is 29-years old, has racked up 3.0 sacks, nine tackles for loss and one forced fumble through 11 games. He’s registered only three sacks but has racked up 10 quarterback hits and according to Pro Football Focus, his 34 total pressures rank fifth-most among qualifying edge rushers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not true. A guy who can tie up interior blockers and push the pocket even without getting sacks is very valuable. Carolina has typically gotten excellent DE sack numbers, and if you look at Hughes' pressure numbers last year, something was wrong. Too many times QBs escaped from him by simply stepping up in the pocket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star is a space eater. He wasn't my first choice, but I'm good with this. He's a great fit for Beane and McDermott's vision. I'm now all but certain Rosen will not be the pick. Neither will Mayfield. It's Darnold or Allen. "Process" guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.Y. Orangeman Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Kyle Williams/Star Lotulelei/Adolphus Washington is pretty solid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave mcbride Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 More on Hughes and pressure. He had *45* pressures yet only a small handful of sacks! That's kind of unheard of. http://buffalonews.com/2018/01/02/advanced-stats-jerry-hughes-erupts-for-bills-against-backup-left-tackle-vs-dolphins/ Man, Hughes is an underrated player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
