NoSaint Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 1 minute ago, WhitewalkerInPhilly said: That's pretty much it. He is considered a luxury player in Schwartz's defense. Schwartz has remained adamant about keeping 4 on the D-line and almost never blitzing. As a result, he runs the nickel A LOT and has a pair of very good linebackers in Bradham on the weakside and Hicks in the middle. They saved $6 million in cap space for cutting him, and have been trying to deal him for years. He's considered a very nice contributor, but for $7.6 M...that's pretty high if you aren't starting. He also gets by with one of those LBs being a thumper ala Brandon spikes. That guy comes super cheap. For him paying a LB isn’t just a luxury - it’s damn near impossible when paying 4-5 guys on the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I want to hear that we at least made a play at him. With McD and Fraizer as known great D coaches, you'd think we have a shot at him coming here. Any connection/overlap with Shady's time in Philly?

Can’t see us spending the money on him though unless we can backload the contract. Kendrick’s, Edmunds and Milano would be pretty versatile. Our LBs would be set imo We'd have to give him the bulk of money next year. I'm sure he will be looking for a big signing bonus. I imagine he will get it. I would love to see him in Bills colors, but I'm not going to spend much time thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenorthremembers Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Am I missing something on Kendricks? To me he seems like an average Linebacker who may demand a higher price tag than his output dictates. I'd prefer to go into the season and see what Milano can do.

I see him as a replacement for Humber. as in upgrade. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is the Eagles DC, a very good DC, did not want to use him until other player was injured so it says something about his perceived value.

That doesn't mean that we will pony up what another team will or what he believes his value to be. He's out of the price range for what our FO will spend.

Yeah it's probably going to be cheap and short. Bowman is still out there too. Different traits but he made a big difference in the Raiders run defense last year. It's been a buyers market for MLB's for years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah his versatility is why it is such a great fit. People forget that Milano was in the tub on wildcard weekend. He's a playmaker but he's a college safety moving to LB he is no lock to stay in one piece. They were proven right with most of their defensive decisions last year(except trading Dareus) so there is some benefit of doubt due but hate to miss low investment talent like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
