I think he probably is right?Well we operate a heavy rotation but yes I would expect him to start and play 50/60% of the snaps. He’s good against the run as well which we need. Good pickup.

I think he probably is right?Bear in mind that Fangio runs mixed fronts and DE isn’t really a part of the equation in this defense. I think it’s safe to assume that he won’t start next week, but never assume as they say. Realistically, he should supplant Uche as the edge opposite Hunt, but when Nolan returns, I think he would be the next guy up in the rotation. Fangio runs a lot of 5-2 (3-4) on early and running downs, but I would estimate that we’re in Nickel and Penny more than the 5-2.

(this is assuming Smith is ready to return this week)
Monday at 03:44 PM2 days I don't think people even understand what kind of genius Howie is, other teams playing checkers and he's playing a 3 level chess game against 31 other people and they don't even know the rules of the game!!Even if we let him walk we're gonna recoup that 3rd round pick in 2 years?

Don't think Phillips will warrant that kind of money to get the Eagles a third round pick. Sweat will only get the Eagles a 4th round pick if I'm not mistaken. We'll see.33 minutes ago, Portyansky said:

Monday at 05:14 PM2 days This move might have just won us another Lombardi. Stats do not tell the whole story. He's a borderline elite pass rusher who compares a lot more favorably to Micah Parsons than people might think.

More likely a 5th
Monday at 07:52 PM1 day There was no way the Eagles were going to give up multiple first round picks to get Garrett so at least Howie got someone with some upside to pressure the QB. My only concern is I hope Phillips can stay healthy so he can contribute.

Especially against the Offenses of the Lions, Cowpigs, and Chargers.I swear to God if I see Dakota Prescott throw for like 275 - 350 yards and 3 TDs against our D in the next Cowsluts game, I will strangle someone!

This guy is a huge injury red flag, still hasn’t recovered his burst, is a half season rental, isn’t that good in the first place, and cost a 3rd round pick.I think he will seamlessly fit into the long line of Howie’s do-nothing-deadline deals.Damn, dude. Down with the bad vibes, LFG!!!!
Monday at 10:39 PM1 day Big risk in my opinion. At least it wasn't the Jet's 3rd round pick, that would have just been bad. IF he plays well and re-signs and continues to play well and stay relatively healthy it's a good move. If he doesn't play well, or even if he does and ends up being a rental it's a definite overpayment. I like the player a little bit but think the risk is too high to have given up a 3rd.

Monday at 11:36 PM1 day He could be a Josh Sweat type and get 8-10 sacks a season for this team for the next few years or he could be a rental that doesnt work out. The potenrial range of outcomes for this is all over the place. I think a 4th for him/that was more than fair but at least it was our 3rd and we still have the Jets 3rd and the comp pick 3rd.

I'm for it even if it's just a rental. I would have probably given up a second.
