folz Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 2 hours ago, BuffaloBillyG said: His break out season in a contract year equaled 5 sacks. Of course not sure about pressures which I keep getting told are just as important as sacks. Also not sure what % his snap count was. I actually think I'd rather hang on to Addison at that rate. He got to the QB a bit and played pretty limited snaps. Would likely be less expensive as well. Uchenna Nwosu 25 year-old OLB for Chargers 6-2", 251 pounds 2021 Played in 17 games, started 15 of them Played 782 snaps, or a 67% snap count 40 tackles, 8 tackles for a loss 1 interception, 2 forced fumbles, 1 fumble recovery 5 sacks, 17 QB hits He blitzed the QB 57 times to the tune of: 5 sacks, 13 QB hurries (five of which he hit but didn't knock down the QB), 12 QB knock-downs So, 30 total combined QB pressures Apparently the bulk of his production came in the second half of last season, so some are looking at it as the light finally came on and he is an ascending player. Others think it was too small a sample size in 4 years to guarantee big success in the future. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEpsYtown Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Nwosu to me is just a younger Jerry Hughes, which would not be a bad thing. He does not fit the mold of what McDermott looks for in ends, but neither does Jerry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s time to get a guy that when the playoffs come and you need that play maker, he can step up. This D has a ton of good players and some greats, White is elite, but we haven’t had an elite Dlineman since Mario Williams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nwosu went in the area where they were drafting in the second round that year before they traded those two picks to move up for Josh Allen. So it makes sense that he may have been their target in the second before the trade up. Nwosu, Donte Jackson, Christian Kirk, Connor Williams, DJ Chark are all guys drafted in that area who are upcoming free agents. Those are the guys they missed out on as a result of the trade. No regerts there. They missed out on Fred Warner, Sam Hubbard, and Mark Andrews because they traded up for Edmunds. Def a little remorse there, but the thought process made sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess he’d fill a need, but he’s definitely not an optimum fit here. We’d be bidding against teams that can utilize his full skill set and while he seems competent as a pass rusher he has not proven to be a difference maker in that regard. The projection to how he’d do full time as a DE is not straight forward either. Maybe he improves and does well because it’s all he focuses on or maybe the additional exertion and pounding hinders him. If he’s really looking at a 5/60 contract, then I’m looking elsewhere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilthyBeast Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Other than familiarity with Mahomes and the Chiefs, I'm not sure this is a move I would like because of the production on paper and it seems it would just be another average type of player added a position that truly needs an overhaul and at least one true proven playmaker.

It's baffling that after everything that has happened with this team and not being able to sniff Mahomes again that they would want to double down on 'rotation' and invest in players like this. So hopefully it's not true, or if it has any credence it's a move that will happen in addition to bringing in a marque veteran pass rusher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
