[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 537477"] That's about as true as you can get in comparing two players. Besides what you said, they're both bull rushers who made some hay against lesser OTs but then disappeared for games at a time. Neal had some nice pressure stats at times but not a lot of hits/sacks...being a 1/2 step slow in the NFL is the difference between "good" and "marginal/expendable". Neal says he'll be happy to drop more weight if that's what the coaches want. That suggests he sees the issue, and that he's not been made any contract gestures to date (no surprise there). I think we can expect Neal going elsewhere in FA unless he agrees to something very cheap. I say this knowing Neal was our second best OLB this past season. His situation is comparable to EDS. Perry is under contract along with a rationalized "upside" that comes with inexperience...so he must get the nod. [/QUOTE]
