skinny21 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 2 minutes ago, Anselmheifer said: That was 3 years ago. Shane Ray is terrible. He has 14 career sacks in 4 years. He's a much lesser player than Ryan Anderson, IMHO, and we have no need for him. Jamie Collins is ok and would be an ok depth signing if he is cheap. We do need backups at both OLB spots and Anderson is our best backup right now. Honestly, I'd rather that we just try to develop Jordan Brailford by keeping him on the roster and playing him in some spot duty. He had 10 sacks last year and 17 TFL at Oklahoma State and had solid workout numbers. I’d keep an eye on McKinzey too. No idea what to expect from him, but at least he offers some speed. Kerrigan/Anderson and Sweat/McKenzie could be a nice, balanced foursome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The poster I quoted mentioned Brailford, I said don’t forget McKinzey, and now you’re essentially saying don’t forget Brailford, lol. But yes, I absolutely hope we have some solid competition there. I seem to recall that we originally carried 4 OLBs last year, but called up McKinzey as a 5th at some point (and then lost him to injury soon after). It’ll be interesting to see how it plays out this go round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were hot on him prior to injury, so his progress will be interesting to follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are trying to ship him out, worth a conditional late round pick in 2020 / or switch of late round picks in 2020...Any takers?

Yes please. I know he's a little undersized, but we could use the depth at the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 I know a lot of 4th rounders fail but Finlay has a point in that with our desire to upgrade safety it seems like most are writing Apke off pretty fast. It did feel like a left field type of pick when it went down and some who covered Apke said he looked lost in camp. But wonder if he develops?

veteranskinsfan Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Hope he can show better in camp this year. Hate to waste a 4th round pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malapropismic Depository Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 He may not become a starter, but could still remain on the team for years as a backup and ST performer. Apke could be the next Deshazor Everett. It's not all or nothing for Apke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickyJ Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 With Reuben out, we need a new LB that doesn't suck. The last list I saw posted for ILBs available was here: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/all/inside-linebacker/available/ I'd be happy with either Zach Vigil or Manti Teo. Zach did all that he was asked to, but never really did more than that. The impression I have of Teo is that he ghosts harder than his ex-gf, but it's not like there's a whole lot better out there.
