Re: Buyers, Sellers, Both, or Neither?
 

From what I heard RK isn't drumming up any interest either so getting a pick for him seems unlikely. We as fans are probably overvaluing his contributions this season.

Re: Buyers, Sellers, Both, or Neither?
 

Only teams I see coming in for RK are those where a good DE can get them over the hump. Only landing spots I see are Seattle who could use someone to help them finish strong particularly in division, or LV, maybe GB or Miami; all of which are in the playoff hunt but might benefit from additional pass rush potential.

Hell yeah, I'd love to watch him kill the Cowboys from the inside.

If Alex Smith can't help mentor the guy into a usable QB, you think Dallas can fix him?

Arizona could use either Anderson or Kerrigan, without Jones they have barely a pass rush.

A radio talking head made a good point.

Any team trading for RK would have to take a 6M or so cap hit and with the cap shrinking next year, thats 6M teams could carry over to next year.

So what? It's an easy decision to take the $6M hit for a team that is in the playoff hunt and needs pass rush help - which is a critical factor in winning in the NFL. Ryan Kerrigan is one of the few potentially available players who is practically guaranteed to make a difference as a situational pass rusher.

If there have been trade talks and there are any hangups, they are probably about draft pick or player compensation.

I hear ya. But teams worried about the cap next year have to weigh 6M or so for 7 games of Ryan Kerrigan in 2020 (fa after this) vs having 6M more for breathing room in 2021.

Probably all moot .. team said they arent trading him (and will continue to play him for 17% of snaps and alienate your only real vet presence in the locker room? makes little sense imo)

He's been a real nice player for the 'Skins for 10 years or so. Can't argue that one bit. However, he isn't a full time impact player anymore, and there are now better options ahead of him on the roster. The players understand this is a business, and he is smart enough to know they aren't going to just give him away. His best bet is to play his ass off when he gets his opportunities, and show out for his next team/contract.

Re: Buyers, Sellers, Both, or Neither?
 

WFT should do their best to trade him but you can't just give him away either. I wouldn't take anything less than a 5th.

Re: Buyers, Sellers, Both, or Neither?
 

who is are future QB then ? this draft or next or free agency

That is primarily why I predicted that there would be no moves by the WFT by the trade deadline.

Tennessee. Burrow had all day to throw late in the game, allowing the Bengals to pull off the upset. If Tennessee isn't looking for a pass rusher, they should be.

Re: Buyers, Sellers, Both, or Neither?
 

One notable group that has been better than expected is the OL, it is ranked 16th per PFF in overall Pass blocking grades. 22 sacks through 7 games . Pretty damn impressive considering losing a dominant LT and having multiple injuries.

I noticed the Oline played better in the last two games, I'm sure that has to do with some changes to guard and LT. Giants defense is better than many people think so the game this Sunday will be good test for our Oline.

Re: Buyers, Sellers, Both, or Neither?
 

I really need to see Saahdiq Charles on the oline. I think we’ve been ok, think we can improve. I’m not sold on Christian at LT as the future.

Re: Buyers, Sellers, Both, or Neither?
 

Reduced playing time kinda sucks for Ryan though. He should be a HOF nominee. If I had to guess, he would fall into the Very Good HOF just short of HOF.

He has 444 tackles, 94 sacks, 26 forced fumbles.

106 sacks puts him at 25th all time. 137.5 puts him at number 10. There are some current players near or ahead of him.

JJ Watt has 503 tackles and 99 sacks.

Yeah, he has played better than I thought but hes good depth. A good swing tackle to have on the bench (Nsekhe) at the ready which is very important in todays NFL bc with injuries, you should enter a season expecting 7-8 OL guys to start at some point in the season.

But now we know what we have, which was the whole point of this season so we can go shopping with confidence next offseason.
