Can't wait to see what Kneeland can bring us, Overshown has rushed a bit and has looked stellar!!!!! As far as someone opposite Micah, do you want another person in the skills that he has in which he's quick off the ball, but a bit UNDERSIZED, or do you want a guy that's a bit bigger to help stand against the run??


It would be great to have someone that has the speed, along with the body structure to be durable against the run, please give your thoughts on this!
Both DEs must be able to stand up to the run if one wants to win the ultimate prize.

Give me depth at the other DE position. Kneeland is a perfect early down DE, I'd focus on finding a pure pass rush specialist in the mold of Dorrance Armstrong who we lost this past offseason to rotate with whatever you get back in a post injury Sam Williams next year.

I’ll actually say something positive in that they have been pretty good at picking up rotational guys like Lawson and Fowler.

Upgrade DT and the edge guys will magically get better.

Will they? No chance, but stay with what doesn’t work. Hope that the oblong ball bounces the right way for three more playoff games in a row.

I would love someone like DeMarcus Ware 6'4" around 260 who is stout and very strong against the run but can attack the QB like a speed rusher. I don't want a small speed rusher and I don't want a huge guy who isn't flexible and runs a 4.9 forty.
You want TJ Watt and not Taco? Got it. I didn't either.

Micah is a real DE and one of the best in the NFL.
Micah is 245 lbs

Every single top DE is above 260 except Crosby who is 256

Parsons has been injured last 2 seasons
His stats drop off late in the season, are bad in December and horrible in playoffs
Teams run right at him when he plays DE

Micah is a LB who wants to play DE to get paid and nothing else

One of our first picks in the 25 draft needs to be a monster defensive tackle, that is all I really know. A good one would do wonders for Dallas.

People overlook Carl Lawson . He’s got skins on the wall at Cincy and Jets knows how to get to the QB . I haven’t noticed containment breakdown when he’s in . If Jerry is “ all in “ then bring back Lawson in 25 help replace the loss of DLaw
Lawson is a walking IR designation waiting to happen!

He’s showed up every week . Pressures the QB gets sacks the containment on his edge hasnt been glaringly bad . I think he can develop into a reliable replacement for DLaw who has suffered several major foot injuries in his career . I don’t expect DLaw back at his age and injury history

If you approach every player on your team up for contract as “ replaceable “ how do you make progress ? Your constantly filling holes .
