Ideas at DT/DE ?

[Warriorspikes51]

First thought with Hoecht out would be Calais Campbell to fill that role where he can rush from interior or outside.  Concerns would be salary (unsure of hit) & if the player has interest in playing up here?

 

 

 

We’ve been interested in him before. A visit was scheduled but never happened because he signed with Atlanta

 

with AZ at 2-5, maybe he wants a shot on a contender

Dexter Lawrence from Giants?

Would love. Extremely unlikely NYG moves him unless someone offers a 1st ++

Whoever they trade for he will probably injure himself on the way to the airport.

I think Calais wouldn’t do it. Wanted to head his career where it started. But I agree about him being a great fit— what an amazing player! 
 

I am thinking Jalen Phillips from the dolphins, if they would trade with us.

[RichRiderBills]

I'd go for Simmons now.

I’ll bite:  1st, 3rd, 2027 4th, Landon Jackson

 

for Waddle & Phillips

I think salary cap becomes less of an issue when guys start going on IR, plus the fact there’s only 9 weeks left now.  We were borderline needing to make a move before Hoecht’s injury, think this seals the deal now.

 

Edit: It’s since been pointed out to me that even IR players still count towards the cap.  That sucks.

Miami would be like “uh you can keep Landon”

this would be great. Highly unlikely he’s moved short of a 1st IMO

we can restructure player(s) to make enough space

Yeah Campbell would be perfect.  But I believe he chose to sign AZ because he wanted to finish his career where he started.  Maybe he has a home there?  IDK

 

I guess you have to wonder if playing meaningful games would be better than playing meaningless games in his preferred location.

Where do we get the cap space to bring just one of those players in?

[bobobonators]

Would

It would require extreme salary cap maneuvering/restructuring by Beane. 
 

I can’t see anyone offering that much for a DT. He’s not Donald good.

Waddle is an easy fit at least. Miami could retain some $ if we toss in an extra pick

Waddle for a 1st or Dexter Lawrence for a 1st? I’d go Dexter. 

 

Waddle would def have an IR stint after trade. Hes always injured anyway. 
 

[Walking Tall]

Judon might be the target if those numbers are right. He seems to fit the mold that Hoecht did, even if he is having a bad year in Miami.

[BuffaloRebound]

With the Hoecht injury, Beane now has to go get a pass rusher.  A healthy Palmer will need to be the answer at WR.

I think you just examine where you think the bigger need is at with 1T v. 3T. 

 

We should get Jones back within the next two games (hopefully this one coming up). It's pretty clear Daquan Jones is a 1T and Jordan Phillips is a 3T. But then you have Deone Walker and Larry Ogunjobi, who can play both spots. I think you start Jones and Walker alongside the other and rotate in.

 

I'd imagine you go out and get a 3T as Phillips, while playing admirably, isn't someone you want to rely on.

 

Edge we're okay at, even with Hoecht's injury. Don't think we need Jalen Phillips (and I don't think they'd trade him to us). Bosa is playing lights out, still have Groot and Epenesa (who is playing well as an off the bench option) and we were sitting Landon Jackson simply bc we were so loaded there that we didn't need him. Now he'll finally see action.

I don't have any ideas but DL is now a faaaarrrrr bigger need than another average WR.
