although it would be great to snag Romero, it will mess up our ratio, we need to find a NI tackle, and i would rather it not me Belli, hopfully Steele steps up in training camp and can play with Kirk
Bolden sucks, he’s a big part of the reason that our secondary has to cover for like 25 seconds before anyone get’s a hand near the opposing QB.We need a better IMP DT and we need N/I DT depth.A new DE for the rotation wouldn’t hurt either.If we don’t get anyone, i’d much rather start Gibbs over him.He played very aggressive and although the stats don’t show it, he was in the QB’s face often
I disagree with the comment " Bolden Sucks". I believe Bolden played hot and cold last. I like the enthuasitc play Gibbs brings. I hope Obie finds another Rush End to compliment Stevie Baggs and a NI that can play in the middle and stop the run and provide effective pressure when required. If I read the current situation regarding Bellie - I beleive the Cats will take a pass and someone younger - cheaper.
Hey, Montreal has a pretty good runningback on their roster right now that might not make their team. If they cut him at the end of TC, we should take a serious look at him.
Bolden certainly doesn’t suck. Are you one of those people that expect DE like stats from a DT? 39 tackles and 2 sacks last year for Bolden is a decent year for a DT. The most sacks I can ever remember any Ticat DT ever getting was 8 for Darrel Adams in 2008.
Just look at all the DT’s stats in the NFl and CFL. They are all in single digits.
If you expect a DT to get a lot of sacks then you’re just setting yourself up to be disappointed and don’t seem to understand the position.
Did I say a good DT needs to get sacks or he sucks?No.I said Bolden hardly if ever get's pressure on the QB and is a big reason that our secondary has to hang on for forever and a day.We need a guy that can shove the OL back and get to the QB in a hurry, whether he sacks him, rushes the throw or forces him out of the pocket doesn't matter.Pressure starts from the interior and Bolden creates little to none, thus he sucks.
