3 tech is my guess. If Dlaw isn't ready by game one, de. If hill shows out or Collins can stay healthy and they get the 3, the one wouldn't suprise me. If it works out like I hope it does , he might not even start and having a guy like him coming in on rotation is a great thing.
Not at that price it isn't. Far from it.
His contract might have been over valued when he signed but you're undervaluing what he is and what he means to the dl. He a solid starter at multiple positions, well liked by the coaching staff, well liked in the locker room, well liked in the dl room and a leader on the defense.
Sorry, but being "well liked" by a bunch of people doesn't win you football games. Ultimately, you have to produce on the field. Stop the run, get sacks on your own when they don't have to stunt for you to do something. Don't get destroyed every time you line up against a starting offensive tackle. Those kinds of things. Actual on field productivity.
If he ends up being a back up on a dl that has a 8 deep rotation and he can play all the positions, something most of them can't do, that's not a bad thing.
It is a "bad thing" at that cost. There's no two ways about it. Especially when you can get a guy to do that same job for less than $1 million.
