That’s pretty nice! Guess it means Tyeler Davison is moving on though.

Possibly, but not necessarily - it all depends on what Tyeler's trying to get paid...

While Malcolm actually played next to the Right Defensive End, they used a slightly different gap assignment, so we may see something like that till we have the Big "O" and Rankins back...

That wouldn't be smart... fake news?!

Nice.

Brown was solid in NE. Very good against the run & eats up space on double teams. 1st round pedigree and fills a position of need on the D line.

Welcome to New Orleans Malcom.

Beasley only got $10.7mil guaranteed of the $20mil he sought...

It breaks down as - $6mil signing bonus; Base Salaries: 2019 - $2.2mil, 2020 - $4.4mil, 2021 - $4.7mil, 2021 - $4.9mil; Roster bonuses - 2019 - $2.5mil, 2020 though 2020 - $500K...

This trend may help should we be really seeking Golden Tate - who's preference is to play indoors on turf where he's at his best...

Interesting.

NFL.com says that Tate has narrowed his choices down to Pittsburgh and the Pats.

Idk guys, Brown has some pretty mediocre numbers during his seasons with the Pats, and while he seems to be solid against the run - he doesn't seem to be able push the pocket.

In fairness, there aren't many DT's who can consistently push the pocket. Generally speaking, you're mainly looking for them to be good run stuffers and capable of eating up blockers to free up the guys around them. I like the signing personally. I kinda hoped we'd draft him when he came out. Seems like a good price too.

True. Not every DT is Aaron Donald.
