Preds Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Cool! Give him a few weeks to learn the system and activate him once he has enough command of things to run the defense. Hopefully as a vet he's a quick learner and possibly available week 1. 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Hallelujah. If Dodsen stinks the first few weeks, hopefully Bernard or Kirksey can step in and take over. I'm not foolish enough to think that Kirksey is a be-all, end-all solution at MLB, but he has certainly proved to be more productive -- and a more capable leader -- over the course of his career than Dodsen has. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDawkinstein Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Very happy to see this. I didnt expect Beane to go after much of anyone. But I'm pleasantly surprised with Ifedi and now Kirksey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LABILLBACKER Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Great short term signing. Get him in there as soon as he's ready. Give Dorian Williams some reps outside. Could care less what happens to Spector, Bernard or Dodson. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have committed something to him wink/nod and this allows them to get him in the team learning/practicing. Keep in mind a guy signed to the 53 after week 1 is not guaranteed salary so they may want to do that. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royale with Cheese Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 He is an 8 year vet…he won’t need a lot of time to ramp up. I think he starts week 1. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuntieEm Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) 15 minutes ago, MAJBobby said: Happy with it. Would have expected on the 53. But interesting he was open to the PS initially. Well they are posting his priority is winning so this wins on a number of points. He'll have time to learn the defense, they can even rotate the lbs if they all perform well in schemes they run. Read he's good friends with Hyde and Poyer was it? If so, easy to think they discuss various schemes they play in in offseason and might have him up to speed in no time. And easy enough to move players to from ps, though not sure of all the tweaks they may have in place for practice squads. However since to be signed off another PS the player has to agree and a vet knows the grass is not always greener when you chase the $$.

BBFL Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) Was looking through transactions around the league from the past week and missed Isaiah Simmons getting traded from AZ to NYG for a 7th round pick… Shame we didn’t enquire or put an offer for him. Kirksey is serviceable but this really makes the LB situation outside Milano more concerning. Edited August 30, 2023 by BBFL 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanahan's Horseshoe Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Could’ve had Zach Cunningham all camp and ready to go at MLB. Now he’s starting for the Eagles. The way McBeane has handled MLB is the biggest headscrater of their tenure. 2 3 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
