He's good. Not superstar good, but good nonetheless. He signed a one-year prove it deal with Carolina after 12.5 sacks with Arizona the year before. Followed it up with 11 last year.

 from PFF "2022 NFL Free Agent Rankings: Top 200 players expected to enter free agency"

25. EDGE HAASON REDDICK, CAROLINA PANTHERS Reddick has successfully made the transition from off-ball linebacker to edge rusher — it’s now just a question of how high his ceiling can be. He is a bit undersized as a full-time outside linebacker at 6-foot-1 and 235 pounds, but he has a knack for bringing the quarterback down and has racked up 28 sacks since 2020 — the fourth-most among edge rushers. He is also able to set the edge moderately well in run defense, earning a 70.4 grade for the 2021 season.

Strengths: – Explosive first step and quickness – Wins tend to result in big plays – Speed in pursuit

Weaknesses: – Size – Counters after tackles engage

Scheme Fit/Role: OUTSIDE LINEBACKER IN AGGRESSIVE DEFENSE: Reddick is at his best on blitz-heavy defenses like Carolina's and Arizona's that can create unblocked opportunities and pass-rushing reps against tight ends and running backs. Reddick hasn't matched his 2020 pass-rushing production this year for the Panthers, but he has earned positive grades against the run at one of the highest rates at the position.

Recent Injury History: Reddick missed the first game of his career since he was drafted in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft on the COVID-19 list late this year. He's played 600-plus defensive snaps for the fourth consecutive season.

Contract Projection: Three years, $35 million ($11.67M per year, $18 million total guaranteed)

Bottom Line: Few edge rushers have sacked opposing quarterbacks at a higher rate than Reddick since the start of the 2020 season. His size limits what he can do schematically, but we've seen that a blitz-heavy defense can make use of his first step and quickness off the edge.

Good signing, but I really like the DE draft class. I hope they still draft one this year.

He'll be 28 in September

Will we put him at LB because we desperately need help there or is he staying at DE?

Oh hell, now I remember him. Back to back sacks the game Jordan played RT

Very good player, good fit. Will fill a role in JG‘s system we couldn‘t fill so far. Money is decent, and that he is happy to ‚come home‘ is a nice cherry on top.
