Starting nose tackle: Jerrell Powe. Deactivate Poe.
It finally happened.
What we were all hoping for and secretly believing in the 6th round of the NFL draft over a year ago, has finally happened. Jerrell Powe, to me, looks like a really, really good starting nose tackle in the NFL. I was hesitant to say this because Toribio looked solid for two weeks, and Powe was going up against 3rd stringers. But after Toribio went down against the Seahawks, Powe played a lot of the base snaps and not only did he get push, he penetrated the backfield and clogged the lanes. Dontari Poe, on the other hand, really needs to work on his base-package game this year, but he really looks promising on 3rd downs. Powe is the perfect two-down talent. Poe looks really great on third-and-long. And when Toribio comes back? Deactivate Poe for 2012 if Toribio keeps showing well. Deactivating Jerrell Powe worked wonders, apparently, for his performance in 2012. Giving Poe a year to get his technique down would probably yeild similar results. |

Even against the Seahawks, Poe looked solid on 3rd and long. I think if what you're predicting comes true, and Poe is activated and playing subpackages for 16 games, he's going to get a couple sacks. |

This may happen if TJax gets cut...and I'm starting to think this is a possibility.

You think Jackson is going to be cut? We'll find out soon enough but I don't think there's a chance in hell of tht happening.

I don't think he WILL, but I'm starting to think he might. He's supposed to make $8,000,000 this year and $15,000,000 next year. You could sign Shaun Smith for less than $2,000,000 per season and not lose a ton of production. That would free up a ton of money that could be better allocated somewhere else.

If Shaus Smith were on our team making $2,000,000, and Tyson Jackson was a free agent from another team, would you advocate cutting Smith and signing Jackson to a contract paying him $8,000,000 this season?

Smith will play here for half that. Jackson will likely sign a long-term extention paying him half that. |
