Wouldn’t put it past an agent to throw this out there. This is kind of where I'm at. Hicks is a good player. But if you're going to sign and pay Hicks, why would you pay 11.5 million for Jones and Settle? Seems like a fair amount of cap space just for rotational pieces. I wouldn't be opposed to Hicks, but we really need to get help at DE. 4 minutes ago, MAJBobby said: Star is a post June 1 cut and we are finally done with him.

gonzo1105 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 My thought on all of the DT interest is two fold. 1. I think by getting experienced guys in the middle with proven success it will help the younger defensive ends have one on ones and hopefully became better at their craft 2. I think they are on the fence with Edmunds. They probably feel they haven't given him enough beef up front to flow and be as successful as they like. If they put all of these guys in front of him and he is still average then they have their answer on whether to reup him or not after his 5th year option. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virgil Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I'm really sick of the resources we pump into the defensive line because of this rotation.

This is money that should go to strengthen other positions. Pick your 6 guys, pay them, and move on. 6? Cmon man. Be reasonable. 10 was obscene but if you run a 4-3 and are in nickel most of the time you need at least 8 guys. 4 at DT and 4 at DE. I'd advocate for a 9th hybrid edge guy that cam play some stand up OLB from time to time too. I'd like to see what Basham could do rushing from the inside from time to time as Oliver's backup. The way I see it they are one more signing or a draft pick away from getting rid of Star as a post June 1 cut. And that is a good thing. Just now, BillsVet said: I can see McCoach saying it now..."We are going to make Tremaine Edmunds look good if it's the last thing we ever do." I was thinking the same thing. They keep Edmunds and force him to play out his 5tg year. If the DL is better and he is still not making plays then replace him next year. As much as I want to move on from him now and his $12.7M salary, I just don't think that will happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
