I like all three pickups from the Waiver wire…..a rookie swing tackle, a bruiser at RG in the run game and a developmental pass rusher!

 

Who are the three to get cut now?

 

Woods to IR and return

 

Olubi/McGrone - one of them

 

O’Donnell

or Hambright?

Land does have that Robert Mathis ‘look’ to him……not that I’m saying he is Mathis but 75% of Mathis as a situational edge rusher (and Special Teams player) would still be a quality player! 

He's way bigger than Mathis. A different body type. I got you though!

Lost Rush to KC. That's really disappointing.

I’m really hoping we find a young CB like him in the next few days to replace Brown. 
 

Happy to see we brought his fellow Alabama alum back on the PS in Harrison who I think is light years ahead of Denbow in base defense at the very least……

Two inches taller but essentially the same weight when Mathis came out. Same kind of twitch…..but part of Mathis’s skill set was how low he could dip around the corner - the two extra inches makes that more difficult.

I think they won't have much problem bulking him up a little bit. He is quick and athletic though.

They drafted Brents too high to get rid of and they thought Baker Jr was better.  We will see what else they have in store

Either way we essentially traded a promising 5th Round CB for a promising 7th Round OT…….the OLine likely needs him more than the DB Room

Was hoping to see if he could develop on the PS with those athletic traits.  Also has an awesome name, but apparently he just didn’t show well throughout OTAs and training camp.  Wondering if we’d be as disappointed if his name were something like Arthur Lipschitz.

Isn't that the Dr from the Rugrats?

    • Insane that the Reds have won so much over the last 10 days, and are yet still in the cellar…    De La Cruz is at least exciting! 10+ HRs and 30+ stolen bases! 
    • Dolla Bill$ being paid out makes Pittman & Taylor's contracts look like camp body deals
    • Colt's end of season OL Free Agents  OC Ryan Kelly OG Will Fries OC Danny Pinter OG Wesley French - RFA RG Jack Anderson LG Arlington Hambright - RFA RT Lewis Kidd - ERFA LG Josh Sills - RFA   NFL Market OL Free Agents:  LT Jackson Carman (Bengals)  LT Andrus Peat (Raiders) LT Andre Dillard (Packers) LT Walker Little (Jaguars)  LT Jaylon Moore (49ers)  LG Ben Bartch (49ers) LT/LG Saahdiq Charles (Titans)  LG Kayode Awosika (Lions) - RFA LG Nick Leverett (Patriots) OC Drew Dalman (Atlanta) OC/LG Trystan Colon (Cardinals) OC/LG Bradley Bozeman (Chargers)  OC/RT Robert Hainsey (TB Bucs)  RG/OC Nate Herbig (Steelers) RG Daniel Brunskill (Titans)  LG/RG Chandler Brewer (Jaguars) LG/RG Michael Jordan (Patriots) RT Jake Curhan (Bears) LT/RT Larry Borom (Bears)  LT/RT Chuma Edoga (Cowboys) RT Calvin Anderson (Patriots)    A few from the above mentioned wouldn't mind targeting after this season: Dalman (Atlanta) – in 2023 finished 6th best OL in zone with an 82.3 PFF grade.  Atlanta ran the most zone concepts of any team in regular season (315) where Dalman excelled earning a 90.9 run-blocking grade. Hainsey (TB Bucs) - best fit is inside zone run scheme Anderson (Patriots) – with Denver used to playing in a zone-blocking scheme Moore (49ers) – 3-year starter at Western Michigan’s shotgun, zone-based run scheme Carman (Bengals) – good fit in a zone scheme Bozeman (Chargers) – move to OC seen an improvement Brunskill (Titans) - solid backup with starter potential in his 30's Little (Jaguars) – good at reach blocking and outside zone   2025 OL Free Agents: - quick shoutout LG Isaac Seumalo (Steelers) – 2025 FA solid starter for years but the team draft Mason McCormick to be new starter in 2024 also be 32 years old in 2025.  Q. Nelson good until 2026 and will be 30 years old.  Starting guard in a zone scheme ideal. RT Thayer Munford (Raiders) – 2025 FA playing well – trade? Munford in 2022 on 432 run plays, 335 or 77. Percent were zone runs where he earned the third highest grade among the conference’s tackles with a 79.5 mark (Ohio State’s zone-heavy run scheme).  Braden Smith's contract set to expire.  Munford key replacement as an option. RT John Ojukwu (Titans) – 2024 ERFA 2025 FA? – best long-term position might be inside as a zone blocking guard.  A five-year starter for Boise State’s run heavy (60-40 run-pass) RPO based offense.
    • It's not just drop percentages.  The Colts love speed on their offense.  Jonathan Taylor was recently listed as one of the fastest players in the NFL last season.  Then the Colts drafted Anthony Gould who in 2023 Week 3 hit a top speed of 21.6 mph.  As UDFAs the Colts then brought in NC State Trent Pennix who in Week 6 clocked the fastest time by a TE at 20.6 MPH but also is a capable RB.  Colts also added QB Jason Bean (Kansas) who in Week 9 clocked an impressive 22.4 mph T5 fastest player in 2023.  Adonai Mitchell during his Combine forty reached top speed overall at 23.84 mph.  Even Pierce had been clocked running 19.82 mph which is impressive for a man his size.  Downs unfortunately wasn't able to find a good metric on but did clock a respectable Combine forty time.
