I hope that GB keeps both Jones and Williams as well. Both are very good, but I don't believe in using FA $s on RBs. RB is the easiest position for a rookie to come in, start day one, and play at a very high level. Yeah, I know that King isn't very good, but he has talent, and thought maybe the CS thinks they could coach him up or he would be better in our scheme.
I didn't realise he had been banged up, just seen his poor play on the field and the marked difference from the previous season, when he looked decent. As for Reid, a quality TE but made of paper mache, of course, we let him turn us over good and proper in our game
I believe Yannick would fit the defensive scheme perfectly, he’s a natural DE and has the ability to get to the QB from that position, using him as the wide 9 DE would be a huge upgrade. Not sure if he wants to play for a bottom dwelling team right now but money talks.
I think he's overrated, and if I remember correctly, he griped a lot publicly when he was with Jacksonville. I'm not sure that JD would want another player like that. I really wanted him a couple of years ago, but since then his stats have been nothing special. They might think they could turn him into a beast in Saleh's system, but I would rather they go after Trey Hendrickson, Carl Lawson, or Julian Okwara. Here's a link to Ngakoue's stats: https://www.nfl.com/players/yannick-ngakoue/stats/ 8 seems to be the magic number for his stats per season as that has been his total in 3 of his 5 seasons. He averages around 27 tackles per season. Here's a link to Trey Hendrickson's stats: https://www.nfl.com/players/trey-hendrickson/stats/ Hendrickson hasn't been as effective, but is supposedly an ascending player and 2020 was his breakout season. He may be cheaper than Ngakoue Here's a link to Carl Lawson's stats: https://www.nfl.com/players/carl-lawson/stats/ Lawson has had a ton of pressures, just not that many sacks yet. Here's a link to Julian Okwara's stats: https://www.nfl.com/players/romeo-okwara/stats/ Okwara had 10 sacks this past season. None of them are great, but beggars can't be choosers. I'd be happy with any of them. Ngakoue, Lawson and Okwara are all 25, and Hendrickson is 26.
He has played one more year than Hendrickson and Lawson and has put up better numbers then both of them combined. Julian is still under contract, I believe you mean Romeo Okwara.
Yes, I did mean Romeo, thanks. Yes, Ngakoue has had better numbers than Henrickson and Okwara combined, and maybe better than Hendrickson and Lawson combined, but these stats don't show pressures, and Lawson has had a ton of hits and pressures. I'm not sure if Ngakoue would have more pressures than Lawson or Lawson and Hendrickson combined, but maybe so. As I said, I'd be happy to add Ngakoue, I'm just not sure if JD would want him, and he's likely to be much more expensive than any of the others. Signing Ngakoue might mean that JD couldn't afford to sign other FAs that he wanted to sign, so he may settle for one of the others who are cheaper so that he can sign more FAs and address more holes/needs.
