DT Earl Mitchell thread | Page 31

Yeah I saw that, and laughed, and people were complaining that we signed him to 4yr $16M deal, STEAL IMO when guys like Brandon Williams and Johnathan Hankins got $10M+ a year.

It's so good to have a vet like Mitchell in the middle...he's setting an early example to the youngsters how it's done. Sure looking forward to seeing him lineup alongside Buckner & DJ Jones (and quite possibly others). I see our DL as an early and sustaining strength...Saleh has so many options and the depth to execute many of 'em. Lynch is building a solid defense from the ground up...just the way he should. I'm likin' it a lot.

Seems like Mitchell is motivated, in shape and Hungary looking like the 2013-2014 version of himself when he was one of the better DT's in pro football

Every time one of the beat writers shows videos of D-line drills from training camp where guys are hitting the sled, Mitchell really jumps out with his weight and strength. Wow. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in action.
