Ok, we need some shelf stock with the way it's been going for Geno and Daniels.

At least he has had some NFL starts somewhere. Can’t hurt I guess.

why not Dareus or snax?

Dareus has always had 'tude problems, and Snacks probably wants to play for a SB competitor.

Sign him sign anyone and quit carrying two kickers

He's produced some stats when he's played and we're thin at DT. Sign him or sign Peko, or both whatever. We definitely need some help on the Dline.

Dareus developed attitude problems as soon as he got his extension. In 2014 he notched 10 sacks. In the 6 seasons he played following that year, he has a grand total of 9.5 sacks.

Suck it up and sign Peko.......

Tells me that they know Daniels will be out a while and Geno might be very slowly progressing.  Don't know too much about the player, but probably needed for depth.  

Andrew Brown flashed a few times last week and Covington has been alright. Hopefully one of those two continues progressing and helps us out more.

I always thought Brown fit best rushing from the inside, so I assumed he was being groomed to eventually take over for Atkins. I don't think the switching between DE and DT has helped him though. Keep him at 3T so he can learn just one position.

If they're going to add someone at DT, they best get to it. Harrison already signed to Seahawks.

That was his knack and Virginia; not the greatest run stopper, but a good rusher from the interior; he indeed looked good on Sunday.

sign him for 6 months.

Didn't Amani Bledsoe have a nice game as well? I mean, IIRC his PFF score was damn high.

I don’t think this would be a signing to the active roster. He could easily be signed to the PS and be brought up for games. He probably needs some time to get in football shape anyways. Similar to Harrison just signing with Seattle.

Played real well from what I saw, I like Bledsoe. I don't think this is a big signing but is good insurance with Xavier.
