Imagine he’s the 1st/2nd player along with Kearse that Quinn poaches wherever he goes along with Fowler!
Dallas secondary next year needs to be diggs, Gilmore, bland, m bell. Those should be the starting four.

Bell is not a linebacker. He is a safety being used as a linebacker cuz we have no linebacker depth. Bell is 215. But that’s what Quinn likes to do.

Sam needs way more playing time. Sam had half the amount of snaps Dorance Armstrong had this season, yet Sam Williams still accrued 4.5 sacks. That would have been more (9) sacks than the 7.5 sacks Dorance Armstrong accumulated playing twice as many defensive snaps. Plus, Sam Williams is better against the run and setting the edge.
I believe he was a bit in the doghouse and he's got that little bit of that Randy Gregory thing going on with a couple scrapes with the law not not big time but I think the coaches have purposely held him back a bit to let him know it's unacceptable but yes I agree with you he should be a starter next year or at least get twice as many snaps as he got while you try to use Parsons more as an off the ball linebacker Sam should be the first guy you go to he's got all that talent we could see it he's got the motor too it's this guy's got a lot of passion he plays with a lot of emotion out there on the field which I like and sometimes it gets him in trouble and he runs into the kicker or the punter and I don't care I like the way he goes full out they drafted him in my opinion they to replace tank on tank side and he would do just fine over there but right now if we still have tank we're gonna need to find a way to get Sam more snaps and I believe that'll happen whenever they let go of Fowler and or Armstrong or both..

If people don't recognize his talent they're not paying attention he has all the natural talent you become a full star in this league once he gets his head straight and the coaches trust him.... I think they're trying to prevent him from becoming Randy Gregory.. In my opinion is already done more in the short time however he he better get his head straight grow up

Bell is not a linebacker. See my post
If you read the article on the official DC website back in November Bell was targeted as an UDFA to convert to LB. They carried as an inactive player his entire rookie season while developing him to play LB. He’s now started and excelled as a WiLL LB all season. Emotions aside and considering facts Bell is a LB. It’s really that simple!

see that's what fans problems are you say he's overpaid and most fans think he's underrated and some say overrated y'all don't know anything the team does they kept him around for a reason he was not overpaid that means the entire sports industry is overpaid you know what we need to do just accept it and stop talking about contracts and money because it's not really part of a fans reality we just watched the product that's put on the field... We debate games and then we move on we could debate the rosters but we gotta keep money out of it keep people's money out your mouth..lol

and I'm betting if Armstrong was on the field more was allowed to develop he might be as good in the run game we don't know that because they're using him more as a pass rush specialist but we don't know what he really is if he got a full time job...
He's a solid backup...only his next cap hit will be too high to justify retention and it will net another additional pick.

These are the types of players you can’t have enough of on cheap contracts

Armstrong is one of those players thats hard to gauge. Does he have 8.5 sacks because he only played 40% and would've had more if given more chances? Or does he have those sacks because of that smaller amount of snaps and is fresher than most guys would be as well as taking advantage of micah triple teams?

I personally feel like it's the latter but It only takes 1 GM or owner in the league to think otherwise and think he can be a No. 1 guy

No he is too light to be a linebacker. That’s the flaw in Quinn’s system. 210 linebackers get run over by big tight ends mds and 300 lb lineman

lol, obviously, not considering he’s excelled all season. They’ve been saying all season his current weight is 215…he’ll be 220 by next season. Overshown’s playing weight in college was 217. Regardless he’s excelled at LB all season. I’d say it’s pretty obvious Quinn knows a bit more than someone who’s evaluation is limited to something as simplistic as “he don’t weigh enough” lol!
