All these years that I waited for Randy Gregory to show his “potential”.. I was excited to hear Dal had him signed. Then, they didn’t. So, I was disappointed and didn’t think we could pull off replacing him. Gregory never did live up to projected sack totals, but he was very disruptive. Opponents had to pay attention to him.
Of course, I wasn’t prepared for Gregory’s obtuse and unappreciative attitude towards the team that stood by his side through his ignorant charades.
That said, I believe Dal somehow found a way to make our DE position stronger. Not only are they available (as JJ put it).. but we added a good mix of veteran and young talent that I believe will create a better pass rush overall.
Unlike last year.. We have a healthy DLaw, an ascending player in Armstrong, Fowler has made some noise this camp and knows DQs scheme, Sam Williams is showing real promise already as a rookie, and even Basham is motivated.
AND I haven’t even mentioned Parson’s pass rushing prowess .
I seriously believe this group will excel and surprise most the league.. and even some of our own fans
honorable mention: UDFA Mika Tafua has looked like a good project player also. Hoping he makes the practice squad and will be ready to contribute next year
