I'd be interested in hearing the reasoning behind why you think that? PFF (for whatever that is worth) had him ranked 3rd among DTs against the run before injury. The guy also had 4 sacks in 11 games, which isnt bad at all for a guy getting most his snaps as a 3-4 NT.

I just dont see the concern other than
1) he is coming off a season ending surgery
2) the Panthers as a team last year had a poor rush defense

The danger of putting up team results to show a particular player is playing well or not playing well.

Too many factors involved to just judge a player by the overall team success.

We would be taking the Panthers starting DT's from last year, McCoy & Poe. Anybody know how the Panthers did against the run last year?

They allowed 5.2 yards per carry, worst in the NFL. :facepalm:

5 years ago he was probably too expensive lol.

Not for me. The wasted 4 years improperly addressing the DT position. Now they finally do with guys that are past their prime. Unreal.

He didn't play mostly nt. Not even close

Ickes was wrong about them not being a 3-4. They switched last year but also played 4-3 which most teams do in nickel anyway.

Poe?

Why would we want some poet who has been dead for 200 years?

Edit: Maybe it's a different guy

Jerry got drunk and kept offering Damon Wayans a contract.

If I remember correctly. Green Bay always had a dominant defense of tackle rotation

Crazy scenario: Dallas signs BOTH Poe and Harrison.

LDE- Lawrence
DT- Poe
DT- Harrison
RDE- McCoy

Well, with Poe, Snacks, and McCarthy, the restaurant industry in Dallas will not have to worry about a recession when things open back up.

I like how now that Rod’s gone we’re getting all these 3-techs.

Classic Cowboys.

Poe is a NT, not a 3 tech.

that’s where he had his success in KC.

The NFL just loosened restrictions on drugs. That’s why they can sign Poe finally.

No wait you’re right. It’s a different guy.

Any time that I see "Team X is close to signing a deal with Player Y", I know that this was leaked by the agent for the player in an attempt to get another team to enter the bidding and drive the price up.

I'll wait until an actual SIGNING is announced before I get interested.

Zekeats · Mar 23, 2020

I hope we get Poe. Great addition to the front 4 and could be used as a lead blocking FB something we haven't had in 20 years.

pgreptom · Mar 23, 2020

Man, I'm hellllllllla giddy about this. a 350 lbs DL?? get outta here

Again, it's not the wisest move to look at team results and then judge a player. Way too many factors go into team play. Maybe Poe really fell off a cliff........... or maybe a combination of factors made the Panthers suck on D.
