[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 1057415, member: 6578"] His big swing types are typically this, but we've also seen immense benefits from like Julius Peppers signing, who at 34 came in and gave three solid years and still went back to Carolina and delivered an 11 sack season. I suspect if Gute is going to swing BIG money at a prospect that's his preference and it will come in at CB or iDL IMO...think Asante Samuel Jr from Chargers exiting his rookie deal but really there isn't any bonafide STUD CBs in that situation....which is why I wouldn't be shocked if Gute tries to nab a veteran of some sort (ala Rasul Douglas or similar) and perhaps wait and see if a guy like one of the rookie CBs in Washington that have underachieved Noah Igbinoghene (former first rounder) or Benjamin St.-Juste (third rounder) might be able to be nabbed for a one year or short two year cheap term to try and play into a big contract. If he did that at edge a few names to possibly see him target would be: [B]Josh Sweat[/B] - dude would cost us for sure, but he's sub 28 years old and producing at a high clip. [B]Chase Young[/B] - folks forget he's only 25 years old still...he is also someone I think could be a sneaky pick up. [B]Azeez Ojulari[/B] - Rumors were we were discussing trading for at deadline for him from NYG...he's less than 25 years old, has produced 23 sacks across his rookie contract (four years) but hasn't been active over 11 games except for his rookie year and he hasn't been a big snap guy with only around 400 last two years. [B]Malcolm Koonce[/B] - The dude from LV no one is talking about because everyone is focusing on Maxx who is under contract. Under 27 years old, had JUST in 2023 put up big pressure numbers and looked bonafide elite projection...2024 stolen in injury so there is some risk there but many still suspect he's going to garner a serious amount of change on the market. [B]Michael Hoecht[/B] - Here is a guy that just saw bad luck with the drafting of Jared Verse...he's an undrafted dude who has laid down though four solid years...After making a contract for a UDFA and being there in 2021 for the Rams but not playing a lot he did then start 6 games in 2022 and upped his snaps to over 400 and produced 5 sacks and 24 pressures which was awesome...2023 he started all games, delivered 6 sacks, 43 pressures and appeared to be ready to just explode in year four, then Verse gets drafted, BUT this year he still saw 700 snaps, produced 30 pressures and 5 sacks.
