Signed by Cowboys Cowboys sign Stephen Paea

[reddyuta]

he is perfect for a 1tech for our D but our run defense is going to be really bad unless we draft a real 1tech.

 

[MichaelWinicki]

I think we got our depth covered with Tyrone, Maliek, Thornton and Paea. If we draft a DT it'll be a can't miss talent or a project with big upside.

And really Irving is more of 4-3 DT than he is a 4-3 DE.

I think they're in good shape at DT.

Sheldon Richardson in HighSchool > Pea as a Pro...

He was going up against much weaker talent back then. The average offensive tackle was 180 pounds.

Why?

Thornton is the 1-tech DT vs. the run.

Sheldon Richardson in HighSchool > Pea as a Pro...

Yeah. Because a bad lockerroom guy with a drug problem and a penchant for going 120 with firearms is exactly what we need.

 

[fishspill]

He's a name I thought may get here somehow. Exactly the kind of signing I expected. People are gonna love this guy I bet.

 

[Bizwah]

For what it's worth he was the 40th rated DT per PFF...

Very good signing IMO.

Agreed. Great rotational guy. Fits in this system. Reasonable.

Can't sign all-pros. Aren't any anyway. All that have signed were grossly overpaid.

 

[Sydla]

If he's cheap, I can live with it. I think we are going DT in the draft at some point anyway.

 

[Sydla]

Now sign Barwin to a cheap 2 yr deal.

Better be real cheap. I don't think he's very good as a DE.

I rephrased it for ya...

War Daddy alert!

The numbers will be interesting.

 

[Alexander]

He is not a 3-4 guy. Look at his stats playing for the bears in marinellis scheme

He had a good year in 2014. Everything else, not so much.

 

[LatinMind]

For what it's worth he was the 40th rated DT per PFF...

Very good signing IMO.

Dallas wanted to bring him in, in 2015 but he signed with Wash for 4yrs 21mil. But found out he wasnt a fit for their 3-4.

 

[Teague31]

Just as good as Jack Crawford and a whole lot cheaper

 

[Alexander]

The numbers will be interesting.

I am certain it is very cheap.

 

[dogunwo]

Was Paea cut?

 

[reddyuta]

Why?

Thornton is the 1-tech DT vs. the run.

thornton sucks,not the player we paid the money for.

 

[Alexander]

he is perfect for a 1tech for our D but our run defense is going to be really bad unless we draft a real 1tech.

Wait, so he is a perfect 1-T, yet we need a real 1-T?

Honestly, if he makes the team, I will be impressed. If we draft a decent player, he is probably going to be Brodney Pooled.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Signed a DT.

Blokes, drinks at on me!
Everybody line up ... no cutting in line. Me mum is watching and counting who drinks.
