The only other thing I can think of is during obvious passing down situations where they may move him inside, but that would be risky as he would be undersized in the interior.

The only thing I can think of is rotational depth. Spags was the DC for the Giants when they won the SB with a rotating pass rush of Osi, Strahan, and Tuck.
He's clearly not going to be better in 2020 than Clark, Tanoh, or Okefor, so he's def rotational depth.

Which is really the max you should expect out of a 1st year 5th rounder.

Frank Clark is listed as 6'3" and 260 lbs, pretty close to the same

I still don’t understand this pick. I’ll have to check him out at camp.

He’s Frank Clark’s understudy. Same size, same school, same position.

If Daly is that excited about the pick, then I'm all in.

Possibly the next Derrick Thomas.....QB killer all day long

Did I read that right?? We wanted to draft him last year if he came out, but he transferred to Michigan and we still went after him this year?

Nah, he has been put on notice.

With 4.7 40 speed combined with his quick twitch vertical jumping out of the gym and his physical size he reminds me of a Robert Mathis/Dwight Freeney type player that is just too quick to contain and tie up always wreaking havoc. An undersized but extremely quick and very powerful DE. Definitely not a tackle based on the highlights I saw.

I'm in.:thumb:

Granted I love that strategy so I'm biased, but I think that's exactly what it is. You can't have too many pass rushers, and I think that's exactly how Spags operates.

Who, Speaks?

You continually prove that you're dumb as ****.

Kudos.
I'm not saying you're wrong here because you're not. But it is entirely possible that speaks could be beat out for a roster spot.

And I also present a recent case of giving up on a high(ish) pick much quicker than year 3.

Keivarae Russell was cut preseason of his rookie year just after signing a $839,598 signing bonus as the 74th overall pick in 2016 by the chiefs. Instead they kept a 4th rounder and a 6th rounder in that same draft over him.

Cutting speaks would save the chiefs about 400k and the dead cap would only be about 400k more than what they had invested in russell.
