I’ll say this... we won’t get killed with screens with Watt on the D-line like we have for eons.

That alone is worth $10 million per year...lol

 

[RON_IN_OC]

Agree about Phillips. I think return if CJ and addition of JJ gives him a chance to live up to his contract. Hicks, I dunno. Will have to see. But more talent around any player typically results in superior play.

With Hicks, if he can just concentrate on clogging and attacking the middle, he will be okay...Let Simmons be the sideline to sideline guy...

I'm surprised how much "ILB doesn't matter" we see in the off season.

And then the season starts and all you here is "ILB can't stop the run. X backer sucks in coverage. Tight ends are eating us for breakfast".

Seems to me tight ends are important enough that we complain about how bad they are a lot.

The truth is virtually every position on the filed is important if your player is dominant or sucks. They seem less glaring (either positively or negatively) if they’re average.

98.7 running interference for the team claiming they can’t keep Reddick now. Bull. All they need to do is transition tag him.

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

WTF? 2 years for 31 million?!

this is a terrible Emmitt Smith contract. Adios Reddick and most of our cap space.

I’ll go on record and say this is a bad move. Hope to eat ALL the crow on it.

terrible take

emmitt was a lot older, had been ineffective for years at a relative unimportant position, and wasn’t going to be joining a strong positional group

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

2 years not bad and played 80+% of Defensive snaps last year. I’ll wait and see cash is about what I’d expect too

yup
16 games played and was 16th in PRP on a dumpster fire defense

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

STUPID. Another PR move. Terrell Suggs all over again. Oft injured player that fits the Kiem mold.
Wasted cap space. Good bye Hasson.

lmao

suggs was worthless the year before we got him and 5 years older

this is EXACTLY what I was expecting.

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

CP3 for the Cardinals level effect

BUT HE IS TOO OLD AND INJURY PRONE.

lmaoooo

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

this is EXACTLY what I was expecting.

If they don’t bring back Hassan the Watt move is meh. If they keep him, it’s really good. Or we could SAVE OUR MONEY and pay Jordan Phillips that money!

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

A better defense does help Murray though.

Exactly, Russ’ health has been way more about his defense than his offensive line or receivers.

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

It just means that we will be using our draft capital on Murray, which fits better with his timeline anyway.

possibly, but an elite defense helps keep the offensive playbook wide open for more plays which is extremely important for keeping Kyler healthy

they ain’t keeping him. We’ve seen this kinda thing play out repeatedly with the Cardinals, especially with their young breakout OLB throughout the years.

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

CP3 was a 3rd Team All-NBA player last year who pushed OKC to surprising heights. Watt was an okay DE on an atrocious D and team. Not seeing the similarities quite the same way you are.

16th in PRP on an awful defense.

That’s incredibly impressive.

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

9 teams weren't trying to sign him because he is washed up.

Reportedly for equal or more money for a couple of them, too.

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

I"m surprised but I'm hopeful they did their homework on his health. I'ts been 2 years since he was elite but that was largely due to health so I'm hoping we did our homework. I have to admit I still hope we keep Reddick

He was borderline elite last year, just had an awful position group.

BUT HE IS NOT ELITE ANYMORE

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

This sums it up

Ledyard is a racist scumbag.
We were 12th last year without Chandler most of it and Watt for all of it. Simmons improving. Budda. F off Ledyard loser.

And he just confirmed this was a factor at the press conference

 

[Metcalf Rules]

I didn’t watch the whole press conference but saw and loved the simple answer he gave when asked how much gas he has left in the tank... totally serious he says “A lot.” No further explanation needed.

 

[PACardsFan]

Kingsbury needs to learn from Watts on how to conduct an interview. Have him play 2 years & then hire him to coach at some level.

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

If Watts turns out to be a bust, Keim is all but gone.

Not if Kyler takes another step. Literally nothing else matters except Kyler and Ws (extremely strong correlation).
