What do we know about this kid Mario Addison? He went to Troy and played defensive end and was drafted by the Indianapolis Colts in 2011. Don't know whether or not how many playing time he's received if any. It appears the Redskins view him as another converted outside 3-4 linebacker.

He wasn't drafted by the Colts

Smoot, you're right. This kid was undrafted. But initially signed with the Chicago Bears.

Right, because he wanted to play DE in a 4-3 defense, like Markus White. So...I don't get this move

I dont know why the Skins continue to acquire 4-3 def players. Might as well run a 4-3 defense.

More than likely the coaches see something on film with this guy. Maybe they just like the way he rushes the passer.

I like the 4-3 better but MS likes the 3-4 and we won't change until he is no longer the coach. If we can get it to work for us then I might change my mind about the 3-4...

Maybe the coaches are not pleased with Rob Jackson or Chris Wilson.

The Cowboys actually kept this kid on IR the whole year. He then tried out for the Bucs and really it was Connor Barth's job to lose which he didn't. So this kid essentially just hasn't had the opportunity.
Am I the only person that knows Google exists? Just curious.
Ok there in lies my problem.... I'm using Bing. lol.
All I did was go to the article and read how he was with the Bucs and Cowboys. Did I do any extensive searching? no. I'm just pointing out that if he was really good those teams would have kept him or some other team would have picked him up lickety split. It's not like he was cut yesterday and we are picking him up today. How long has he been sitting waiting for a call? atleast preseason?
