makes selecting a late round DE pick in the draft more of a luxury. beside smith needs some one his own age to talk to on the side lines

Get the feeling of a slow clap and rightfully so. I do like that he knows the system but not sure how much weight that carries, he won't make a big impact either way at his age. If it aids in preventing huge mistakes then ok. All we need is something that is maybe 15-20% better than the last batch and we should get in the playoffs.

Depth. Hey still has to make the team.

34 DE make some splash but holding the line and defending the run is first and for most

Yep, we need players for short yardage goal line and 1st down packages.

This guy is freaking MEAT!

bulking up the line on the cheap I like it

SmashMouth · 03-29-2013, 08:51 PM

Draft a RB?

Old guy who will relieve players and hopefully add some quality depth at that position

I do like this pick up since it's probably very affordable to bring him in, and he can serve as a player coach for the D-line on how Ryan's scheme works - like what Butler can do for the LB corps.

Anyone else read this?

"In his seven appearances last season, Coleman notched just 15 tackles and a forced fumble. His major contributions to a defense don’t come in the statistical column. Rather, it’s how he opens up lanes to the ball for those around him that make the difference. Coleman eats up multiple blockers, which in turn allows the linebackers behind him roam free and makes plays on the ball."

I'm liking this signing more and more.
