If he can play

then let’s sign Cam Wake from the CFL. I’d hate to see us miss out on an opportunity.

I wish Woody Paige was our coach!

Hey if he has 20 Sacks the guy can play. I know people are going to say he is playing in the CFL and his talent might not translate into the NFL where players are much better but if you can rack up 20 sacks then you have to be good. We could use a guy like that who shows up on every play and never quits

Love how wiki cites his personal info

Status: active
CFL status: Import Position(s): DE
Height: 6 ft 3 in (1.91 m)
Weight: 241 lb (109 kg)
Jersey №: 91
College: Penn State

I did some quick research and it looks like he’s a tweener that prefers to play DE rather than LB. I think we’ve shown we’re more concerned with performance than size (see Doom).

I wish Woody Paige was our coach!

He did go to linebacker U

Michael Fabiano really knows nothing about football outside of regression analysis and stat extrapolation. If it doesn’t have to do with fantasy football, his opinion is worthless.

Football is football

He is a beast from the clips I have seen so I would love to see what he can do when he is bookended with Doom.

I doubt Denver would be that inovative to actually looks at game film

Seems their defense draft picks are based on combine numbers (such a waste).

Of Safeties

From Denver Post

The toughest thing about safety is the combination," said Marquand Manuel, the Broncos’ starting strong safety. “You’ve got to hit like a linebacker and you’ve got to cover like a corner. There’s not too many of us out there.”

To bad we don’t have any of those guys on our team, our safeties hit like wet paper sacks and cover like an over-weight bumble bees, to slow and take strange flight paths.

LOL!

That same article said Clavin Lowery is known for his big hits more than his coverage skills. I haven’t seen lawery deliver any big hits. I do see him getting pushed around like a little girl though.
