Krueger needs to "X" to be deemed a successful signing?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; 1 year. $3M with a max potential of $5M. What do you expect from Kruger and what type of year does he need to have to be a good signing?...

Stay healthy and don't regress. I'd be happy if he just becomes a good rotational piece that's not a liability

I think/hope he was signed to start on the opposite side of Jordan. If he starts my bold prediction is that both he and Jordan will have double digit sacks...

Hell, just keep tweeting all that politically incorrect ranting and keep posting pics of that awesome wifey...



Seriously...

Match Cam Jordan in Pressures/Sacks/Turnovers, at least 80%...

Give me anywhere from 8 to 12 sacks and we can call it the steal of the year. If he and Cam Jordan can both get about equal sacks and hurries we'll be dangerous.

Kruger-Fairley-Davieson/Rankins-Jordan

That's a massively upgraded defensive line. I'm excited.

THIS ^^^.

I had to look this up - > Kruger ranked 5th in 2015. 33 defensive hurries (Cam Jordan was 11th w/16). A hurry is a huge disruption of timing for a QB. KRUGER|FAIRLEY|DAVISON|JORDAN ... dude that is a talented D line.

Kruger is gonna help our defense tremendously.

Not sure what the difference is between a pressure and a hurry, but I read that he had 50+ pressures last year. So this gives us two proven commodities on each end. If the interior pressure lives up to the hype then it's going to be a rough year for opposing QB's

Re: Krueger needs to "X" to be deemed a successful signing?

Browns were trying to save money and they lost a good player.

I expect PK to be our starting DE by week 3.

I think he adds the dimension we've been missing that don't necessarily show up on stat sheets but end up on less 3rd down conversions.

Predict 6 1/2 sacks, 2 FF on the year. Top 15 in QB hurries.

If he can get anywhere near the amount of QB hurries he got and record 6+ sacks I would be happy, 8-12 sacks and i'lll be ecstatic.
