I think he will have an impact and I think someone can turn their life around in less than a year.

If you defined "productive" as sacks. How many sacks would he need in order for you to define him as "productive"?I keep seeing articles how he has not played since 2015. Ok,, that might be true but he has not been productive since 2012 or 2013. That is 7 or 8 years ago. Most players do not even have a 7 or 8 year career. Thinking this guy is going to help out is insane. This isn't anything more than wishful thinking.
On-top of all this, I keep reading about him turning his life around. I'm lost. His last arrest was less than a year ago. How anyone with his track record, you could consider a turned around life in less than a year is just laughable. Show me 2,3 or 4 years of being a straight then we can talk about his life being turned around. My guess he is still on probation. The state hasn't probably cleared him yet.
With all this said I do not have any issues with Dallas signing him and seeing if there is anything there.
I'm just talking about all the hype I see from people posting stuff on here that he is going to be a productive player. I have more faith in Gregory and I do not have a lot of faith in him also.
Good for you now start walking.I have a bridge to nowhere I can sale you
If reinstated I expect 2.5 sacksI keep seeing articles how he has not played since 2015. Ok,, that might be true but he has not been productive since 2012 or 2013. That is 7 or 8 years ago.

Does anyone know the date he applied to be reinstated from indefinite suspension? Doesn't that start a 60 day clock for Baddell to answer? Say March 1st would be May 1st for example. Something to look forward too...lol
I don't. its a low risk approach, and can be cut during preseason if he doesn't show he has anything....a flier and better than a no name college camp body with 0.01% chance of making the team.
so right now it seems we are taking the desperate approach to DE, with Smith, Gregory, Jackson, Crawford. we don't have an answer and seems like we are hoping one of them to step up, so depending on the feeling in the building, wouldn't surprise me for us to pick a DE in the first or second round....doesn't look like any of these guys are the answer.
the other option, which coaches maybe considering, is a move to 3-4, with Poe in the middle, McCoy at one DE and Lawrence at the other (although he is not a fit for a 3-4 DE) and then Smith and Gregory as potential OLBs, Jaylon and LVE in the middle, since both are better suited to being MLBs and for now a combination at the other OLB with Lee as the potential starter....this allows the best players to be on the field and some what take advantage of our personnel.[/QUOTE]
I have a sneaky suspicious this is exactly what they are thinking but not all at once. Slow transition......
