Brooks Reed (if he has anything left in the tank) will be a good OLB rotational guy for us, I thought he was miscast as a DE in the Falcons 4-3...
Which is funny because he was a 4-3 DE at UofA.

He’s not a pass rusher anymore, but he’s very good against the run

After last year, I'll take all of the run stoppers we can get

He can still put pressure, but he'll just be just a situational sub/ backup now. That's how he was signed as. He's been more effective in the 3-4's. Good backup plan if they can work out a good trade to move out of the #1.

Good move given the real possibility that Golden moves on.

Perhaps the #1 backup to both Bosa and Chandler.

Nothing wrong with this signing. Unless they stay at this level and don't sign any top end talent.

The Cardinals acting so early is clearly them loading up and then later sifting through the players once free agency and the draft is complete... the signings do not mean a player stays or not in a majority of these, while the Alford one seems more of them making a stronger conviction of course by the contract and his past performance

Not breaking the bank for him and nothing guaranteed. Could be a solid rotation player especially against the run which is our biggest weakness.
