If shifting to the 3-4, a big 0 technique NT is needed to occupy 2 O-linmen on every play. This guy has that size and in the past has shown that motor.

But the fact that he only signed a two-year deal shows caution, which is a good thing.

But looking at his career I see a guy that has not been on a foootball field in a year. Has not been in on a sack in 5 years. When he was good, he was real good. As the Panthers defense was a good one when he was clogging up the middle. After he went down with that achilles, that defense suffered.

But a guy that big that has not been on a football field in over a year, that just screams of a big man that will take a lot of effort just to get back in football shape.

And as history shows, with an achilles tear, the rehab and return to action is approx 1 year. But it is not until the second year the player returns to form.

So signing just a 2 year deal was a smart move by the front office. A lot of wait and see wrapped up in this if you ask me.
