[QUOTE="mradtke66, post: 837547, member: 4199"] In three games? Mo got injured midway through week three. Poor sample set. Mo may have turned into a great addition, but claiming that he was the difference for 2.5 games, never making it to 70% of snaps played? Incredibly premature. Wishful thinking? Any by week 6, Lowry and Daniels start swapping back and forth for who's taking more snaps. I think many remember Daniels for how good he was, not how good he finished 2018. He's probably only got one more year left of good play. What's the old saying, "Better to cut a player a year to early rather than a year too late." Lowry is an adequate starter. Possibly even above average, but it's hard to tell exactly. He hasn't gotten as many snaps as a 3-technique rusher. He's a good, strong-side 5-technique DE. His Backup is (likely) Keke, but that's a guess. Not entirely sure who projects to backup 5T. Clark is Clark. Ascending player. Clearly the best player of the group. Lancaster is the presumed backup. Adams is my guess for the starting RDE. He's the "risky" projection, but keeping Daniels at 30 and a foot injury was probably just as risky. Brown or Looney might project as the backups, but it's hard to say. I don't know enough about them to say that confidently. So the top 4 are obvious to me: Lowry, Clark, Adams, Lancaster. Of those 4, only Adams is the gamble. The rest have shown a lot of solid football. From the remaining 5 DL currently on the roster, we [B][I]have[/I][/B] to find 1 more guy and no more. Maybe keep 2 if their performance demands they stick around. Carrying 5 DL, ( and lets be honest, they're really ALL defensive tackles in a 3-4. Typical 4-3 base teams only carry 5 defensive tackles) is about right. And with Smith and/or Gary chewing up a few snaps at 3-technique here and there, 5 be their max. Especially if no one steps up and demands a spot on the roster with their play. Is this a group of world beaters? No. Average without Clark? Probably. I'd say Above Average to Good with Clark.
