I don't see how in the 3-Safety packages we don't have a front line of Cam Jordan - Sheldon Rankins - Nick Fairley - Kasim Edebali or TBD...

...And if we can't stop 3rd and Long then - then it will never be stopped until a defensive staff is hired by a strong GM and staffed by that GM...

I think we will see these two get a bulk of the playing time. unless John Jenkins or some other player steps up to be a NT in this defense that can provide constant production. those two will be the starters.

We should at the least be very quick.

It will be interesting to see what Erik Harris (former CFL'er) does in camp.

Yes, if we could strike gold again as we have with Del Breaux, ohh babee...

I'm pretty psyched to hear Gwacham is up to 270 lbs. He now has almost identical measurables to rookie Jason Pierre-Paul.

JPP
6' 5"
270 lbs
34 3/4" arms
10 3/8" hands
4.78 40 time
19 reps

Gwacham
6' 5"
270 lbs
34 3/8" arms
10" hands
4.72 40 time
22 reps

Of course I'm not saying he will be JPP, but he's physically ideal for the job.

Obum is actually ahead in strength and speed. Wow, better than JPP? We can only hope at this point and I be hopin!
