Cowboys sign Igor Olshansky... per Schefter (4-year, $18m/8mil guaranteed)

[speedkilz88]

This is turning into the gayest thread.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

lol, you guys are cruel

 

[Vintage]

Awesomeness.

 

[Hostile]

lol, you guys are cruel

Oh and you were all Mother Teresa with the TO Keeper League crack.

Which BTW killed me.

:wink2:

 

[fanfromvirginia]

Not to be a stick in the mud or anything, guys, but Ukraine is not in Russia. Not yet at least...

 

[fanfromvirginia]

:laugh2: Ok. I'll stop.

Yes, by all means please do stop. That just ain't right.

 

[Beast_from_East]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great signing and only half the price of Canty.


Jerry is really doing a good job this offseason, considering so many on here think he is an Al Davis clone.

 

[Bach]

I like Igor better than Canty and we got him for much less. Jerry's actually had a couple of good days here.

:laugh2: Ok. I'll stop.

I think that guy lives next to Brain... They go on canoe trips together.

You're not well. You need to lie down for awhile.

 

[jazzcat22]

Who cares?

The real question is, what's the acceptable degree of error on the fourth derivative?

1 missed tackle for a short gain for the degree of error, but the variable is the 2 sacks for big losses, and a fumble recovered for a TD.

I'll take that equation every time.

41 times? Aye Caramba! Even better, at his pro day (since apparently 41 wasn't good enough) he benched 225 43 times.

Strengths: Playing the difficult DE spot in the 3-4 formation, Olshansky has helped give the Chargers one of the league’s more formidable D-lines since entering the NFL in 2004. At 6-6, 309 pounds, he has a large frame and is very difficult to block coming off the line. He’s extremely athletic for his size and has tremendous strength, giving him the ability to easily shed blockers. His powerful lower body makes him stout against the run. He can create double-teams, freeing up his linebackers to get clear shots at opposing quarterbacks. He has the versatility to line up at either end or tackle, depending on the system in which he’s playing.

Weaknesses: Olshansky can be very streaky. He makes some big plays but then disappears for long stretches. He doesn’t react all that well and isn’t an instinctive player. For a D-end, he doesn’t have much in terms of pass-rushing moves, totaling just 11 sacks in five seasons. He sometimes allows his emotions to get the best of him, resulting in unnecessary penalties. He has never reached 50 tackles in a season.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Excellent pick up and a MUCH more friendly deal for us. I like this move.

 

[AbeBeta]

One of the better movies Ive seen in the past few years...

You will enjoy it...

Oh, i've seen it - great film. History of Violence was excellent as well

 

[TellerMorrow34]

I like him but will miss him when he tests positive for steroids or HGH and gets suspended.

Goodness he is a huge dude.

I like Igor better than Canty and we got him for much less. Jerry's actually had a couple of good days here.

*blinks* You must be very ill. Two compliments of Jerry in the last couple of days? I think this is proof that there just might actually be Alien Abductions taking place on our planet. Something has taken the real Bach and replaced him.

 

[ThreeSportStar80]

Very smart move by Dallas, cheaper bang for the buck. Canty out priced himself.

 

[big dog cowboy]

I wish my hair was like that

Why? Oh I know. Then you could change your name to Vinalla Ice.

 

[big dog cowboy]

BTW.......

Excellent pick up and a MUCH more friendly deal for us. I like this move.

:signmast:

 

[CliffnDallas]

There's just some thing cool about having a player named Igor.

 

[ethiostar]

There's just some thing cool about having a playor named Igor.

I said the same thing about 'Tank', i hope 'Igor' is much more productive.
