I think you need another guy though.
Absolutely.

Let’s face it. The minute Sam got hurt. The idea of Parsons playing Lb rather than DE definitely died.

They have 2 proven players at DE right now. Lawrence and Parsons.

That is it.

I think Kneeland has a chance to be good but he is a rookie. Fehoko and Gholston are young players we really need at least one of them to step up.

Looking at that draft again….that draft is a running back away from looking real good.
We did have a good draft. I was excited on draft day and I’m looking forward to seeing what these guys can do. Guyton, Beebe, Kneeland, Liafua, and Carson all may make contributions this year.

I really think the difference between us making the playoffs and or not making the playoffs will come down to Guyton and Beebe. If these guys can’t protect Dak then we’re in trouble and if they can open up the running game for our RBs, that will take pressure off Dak. If these guys are busts then we only have one proven good player in Martin and an average player in Steele. That could make for a long season.

Yeah we need someone, for depth and to rotate in and out and use Micah as a “chess piece”.

Yannick Ngakoue
Carl Lawson
Charles Harris
Marquis Hynes
Rasheem Green
Tyus Bowser
Markus Golden
Shaq Lawson

Who would you want as depth??? Yannick has history with Zim, I liked Golden when he played for the Giants
I think Shaq Lawson officially retired?

But yeah, definitely a problem now for pass rushing depth.

Finally might have the right run stoppers built, and there goes our pass rushers with Armstrong, Fowler and Sam out.

Tyler Smith too.

Absolutely. Otherwise guys like Micah and Lawrence are going to be playing too many snaps and will get worn down

Was Sam lining up more as a LDE or RDE?

Lawson is probably a good option in July/August if he can stay healthy himself

Coax JJ Watt out of retirement. I thought he had another year or so after a 12.5 sack final season.
