Yes, the bolded guys need to come out. And seriously I have never seen Andre Carter described as a ferocious pass rusher.

They all were good for us though...some were great finds in FA too such as Roy Barker. I remember when Rickey Jackson literally, knocked Emmitt Smith out on an outside, in stunt right up the gut. Awesome!

Andre Carter is a solid player we crapped out on...just another let go...JP ect ect...but he is not an all time great and there are only choice few in this list and it all ended with BY...bottomline...this team has sucked since the nineties and BY was the last of the Champions from an era where all of these names were doned and witnessed...too many names...shouldve been a top 10 post...
Was watching some pass rushing drills and guys were being taught to sink their hips and burst around tackling dummies. I saw one guy who just ran over the dummies. Hahaha I got the funny feeling some of the raw guys we got were in that class. Screw technique I am gonna plant him types.

I really like the Aldon pick. I don't see any reason why he can't get as good as those guys. Some people say his combine numbers were low but when I watch him on tape, he looks pretty explosive. I'm guessing his injury held him back a bit.

You gotta love his arm length and the fact that he's still young and growing. That was a knock on Manny, that he couldn't get big enough.

He should be good at knocking down passes, wrapping up runners and sacks. Not as good as Manny at wrapping up runners but hopefully makes up for it in sacks. I really liked how the guy looked so if I had to pick a sack leader for next year, then he'd be it...this year I duno. Some people take longer to get adjusted then others.
a solid pick for a non existing pass rush
