b_west3 Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 I like this move...but damn we need a corner or two in the worst way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgcd3 Posted May 17, 2021 Author Share Posted May 17, 2021 There's a 100% chance Howie will make a move at CB. Just don't know what it will be or how good the player is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but his stats fell off the table last year. While Washington did turn to the younger guys and Kerrigan's opportunities were limited, I hope his skills haven't declined the way the data makes it look.

PoconoDon Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 He's at the end of his career and hopefully can contribute for the whole year as a rotational player. At least he won't be giving us headaches from the other side this season, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LacesOut Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 The DL just needs to get 10 or so sacks a game and then the Secondary will be ok. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything ..1 thing is guaranteed... he will get 4-5 sacks alone in the 2 games vs Washington. he will also shine vs Dallas everything beyond that will be a bonus.

They drafted Sweat and Young in successive first rounds at DE and Ron Rivera decided the future was now when he got hurt in '19 is how I see it. There has to be a restructure and extension for Barnett now, because there's no way we're paying him 10million dollars this year. People saying we're definitely getting a corner too, every roster move so far makes that less likely, my guess is at very best they pick up a vet minimum final cuts guy, unless Howie really gives Barnett a 'Cox Johnson special' dummy years out the wazoo extension.

Try 17-18-19-20: 2017: Jonathan Allen 2018: Daron Payne 2019: Montez Sweat 2020: Chase Young That’s a lot of first round beef. Four 1st round picks in a row on the Dline.

Just saying, overall that line is all first rounders. I see Kerrigan as a 3rd down specialist here rotating in with Barnett. Hopefully can squeeze a solid year out of him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metal Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 He's clearly on the downswing of his career, but if he can be a part of the rotation and contribute I don't have any complaints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoop Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 He's not what he was, but I am all for this. He's still a solid end. Barnett - Cox - Hargrave - Graham Sweat - Williams - Ridgeway - Kerrigan Nice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diehardfan Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 5.5 sacks the last two years and turning 33 this summer. Doesn't seem to be declining at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
