Cards sign DT Dalvin Tomlinson

[slanidrac16]

OT?

In the draft for a future starter - yes.

In free agency- absolutely not

I was referring to the draft.
Wouldn’t it be nice if we signed Becton?

 

[DVontel]

It goes both ways I have seen quite a bit of comments from Browns fans giving credit to Tomlison for helping Myles win DPOY in 2023

I’m sure teams fear Myles Garrett way more than they do Dalvin Tomlinson.

 

[Krangodnzr]

Right where I'm at. At Edge, I think we've gotten a significant upgrade in pass rush. At DT, eh??? Not sold yet. At least the run D should be a lot better.

I'd say it's a big jump when Tomlinson had a higher pressure rate than all of the Cardinals DTs COMBINED.

It is possible that both guys are good. No one ever said the Browns defensive line sucked these last few years. It's actually been the only reliably good part of that team.

Tomlinson can collapse the pocket and will clog the middle:

didn't they murder clayton tune?

 

[Stout]

Upgrade compared to what?

Seriously? You DON'T think we've upgraded at Edge? Sweat is an upgrade over anything we had on the roster. Unless you completely missed the point in my post?

Sure. My point is that we still don't have a wrecker. We will be better, but I am salivating at this DT class. There are potential wreckers and we should be able to get one in the first.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

So we were kind of lucky Tomlinson was cut?

Maybe...lots of good results are on account of some luck along the way.

Luck and timing both play a part

Why is Tomlinson misspelled in the title? Where is bim when you need him?

 

[BritCard]

Cardinals had two holes entering FA, and Monti was able to add an EDGE and DL (last second hail mary) who instantly become the Cardinals best players at those respective positions. Can now be patient with OL and look for value if they want.

Agreed. I'd like a guard, ideally I'd like Hernandez back and he would like to come back. I think he's the best available but also someone like Shaq Mason would work. But it's not desperate.

11.1% pressure rate is a wrecker though. Now....if you can bring in a Water Nolen and if D Rob can take a step forward, there is the makings of pretty good interior pressure which will help the edge room quit a bit.

Good signing!

 

[juza76]

I would draft a tackle with the first round pick
Jonah has 1 year left, and even when healthy he wasnt very good,

He's also only 27 and played well when fit. I expect the team see him as the future there if he stays healthy this year.

I am sure someone has access to full year pass/rush double team numbers on PFF but here is what I found through the first 5 weeks of 2024.

Will Hernandez be full speed when the season starts? I’m concerned this won’t the case.

 

[Harry]

I like the pickup, but let’s be honest for a little bit. It does help to have Myles Garrett to occupy 2(sometimes even 3) blockers to occupy him.

That’s why I want Grant.

I like the cut of your jib, sir!

He’s expected to be fine sometime in preseason.

Add Nolen to the mix... Wow. I would really be excited about watching our Dline for the first time in a long, long time.

With his slide, we could possibly trade back, get an extra 2nd or 3rd and still get Nolan.

Did a quick look of a few mocks and saw Nolan at 11, 17 & 27. If they really want him may have to take him at 16.
