Damontre Moore maybe that speed rusher we didn't need to draft

[darthseinfeld]

but we already have those

We didnt have one that can threaten the edge consistently from the 6 and 7 gaps.

We have just as many 8 and 9 gap rushers, and they are much easier to find

irving, tcrawford, even dlaw if his back is not really broken.
for the 8 or 9, we have mayowa and not sure if tapper can hold up if he even fits there and not at lde
oh yes, moore too if he can keep his sanity

And when have any of those guys given us consistent pressure from the 6 or 7 gaps at RDE? We are adding talent, not types. We dont play a 8 and 9 gap all or even most downs. Those types of rushers are role players.

Lawrence got most of his sacks lined up over the 8 and 9 on the strong side opposite Hardy. He hasnt shown he is a 6 or 7 gap rusher in the NFL

we cannot stop 3rd and long.
with our offense, stopping a few 3rd and long would change the complexion of big games.

We couldn't stop 3rd and long last year with guys you just listed

Thats why we drafted a DE in the first round.

yes, when we had hardy.
we dont have a hardy or we would probably have won the superbowl last year.
i frankly do not believe dlaw on anything.
just play irving at lde.

yes that de is going to need development.
many doubt he is going to do much his rookie year.

Then why are you including him with the guys that can play the 6 and 7 gaps?

His success in the NFL has been in the 8 and 9 gaps on the strong side

i was just being complete listing all the relevant players.
i have serious doubts about his back.

No you listed the players that can play the 6 and 7 gaps. And you listed Lawrence amoung them

 

[waldoputty]

yes i think he plays there.
not well.

 

[darthseinfeld]

yes i think he plays there.
not well.

Why?

His success in the NFL has been in the 8 and 9 gaps

 

[waldoputty]

Why?

His success in the NFL has been in the 8 and 9 gaps

i told you i just listed all the players that could line up there.
i suspect sine he plays lde, he would at least line up in the 6 or 7 some of the time.

yes, his sacks and big plays tend to come in the 8 and 9.
that is true.
