Free agent DTs available?

[Hawkeye0202]

I know most are thinking Geno Atkins or Kawann Short but here's a name to keep in mind ......Tyrone Crawford (LOL).

Best remaining defensive players available
1) Geno Atkins, DT, Cincinnati Bengals
2) Richard Sherman, CB, San Francisco 49ers
3) Damon Harrison, DT, Green Bay Packers
4) Olivier Vernon, EDGE, Cleveland Browns
5) Kawann Short, DT, Carolina Panthers
6) Dre Kirkpatrick, CB, Arizona Cardinals

A lot of talented defensive options remain available in the 2021 NFL free-agent class
The defensive group of free agents does not lack talent even this late in the cycle. Atkins and Sherman have both proven to be valuable starters over the course of their career. Harrison was considered one of the best defensive linemen in the league just a couple of seasons ago. Even after a couple of down years, he is still extremely talented and could be a valuable addition.

[Carson]

Doubt they sign anybody.

They’ll roll with whom they have

 

[The Quest for Six]

Steven said earlier this week they don't have any money to get a backup quarterback, so I doubt they're going to sign anyone

One player gets hurt and it is panic time?

 

[Tangle_Foot]

Fingers crossed that Gallimore's injury is not severe, but I would hope the team would do their due diligence to shore up the D-line. Surely the organization has player profiles on multiple players at every position. With injuries, suspensions and off the field issues being real challenges to your roster, it's just smart business to be prepared.

He's a projected starter........wouldn't call it "panic time" but projecting his replacement is a fair question.

 

[Hennessy_King]

I mean why we havent called up geno atkins is still baffling

 

[Risen Star]

What's the point of having amazing depth if you don't use it?

 

[Joe Realist]

It’s dak and Jerry’s fault

 

[Cowboys1fan]

We do realize he just became the starter and isn’t that much better than his backup right now correct? We are not trying to replace an all pro dt

You are exactly right .......I've read several times from different former GMs/personnel scouts that every GMs list of available

You look at the roster and don’t see a player who can fill in for a couple of weeks? Did you see O-Dig’s burst last night. O-Dig might be better than Gallimore right now. Carter was playing pretty well at times last night. Hamilton played decent last year. Golston should be ready to come off PUP if they are done stashing him there. Bohanna didn’t play well last night but did flash for a couple plays.

Getting a veteran at this point is panicking.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

Hadn't heard them say they had no money to sign someone. Where was that?

If it was just hyperextended, that might only be a couple weeks kind of thing. My son dislocated his elbow...was back at it about three weeks later.

How much does he want? Is he any better than O-Dig right now? Let’s see what Golston and Hill have before hitting the panic button.

Have you looked at our DT depth chart? Gallimore may not be much but what else we have is frightening.

 

[Rockport]

One player gets hurt and it is panic time?

And we don’t even know the extent of the injury yet.

 

[TwoCentPlain]

Does a little thunder and lightning still scare you?
O-Dig is frightening for sure. For other teams OL.
Hill, Hamilton, Bohanna, Carter, and Golston do not frighten me if they have to play with Gregory and Lawrence.

 

[GoldenR]

This is the problem with the Jones' and those posting about the DT on this site. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO HAVE ONE! I do not have time to explain it to you. Maybe someone else can take the time. We need corners though, Right?

 

[TwoCentPlain]

And we don’t even know the extent of the injury yet.

Yeah, exactly. No need to panic. We got this.

Who cares sign him to a 1 year deal for depth and competition. Wouldnt hurt to show these young guys how an all pro does his thing
