Shocker, someone doesn't like a move

You could have paid Smith about the same as Lawrence and gotten a way better player.Shocker, someone doesn't like a move![]()

Yes. Too bad he is not a baseball player where that matters.Home run.
I don't get this move. This guy is 6 years removed from double digit sacks. JS should have gone after Za'Darius Smith. I'm really starting to lose faith in him. You need at least one guy who can give you 10+ sacks a year on your DLine!

You’re high. Smith isn’t remotely close to the Elite talent Lawrence is.You could have paid Smith about the same as Lawrence and gotten a way better player.
He’s solely talking about sack production and ignoring everything else. That’s gotta be why he made that claim, which is just ridiculous.Way better player? It's not even really close, Lawrence outclasses him in almost every way.

Excellent point. Would Leonard Williams and his 11 sacks last year like to chime in? Boye Mafe has played 3 seasons, 3, 9 and 6 sacks in his first 3 seasons. Think he can't continue to progress? Derrick Hall has played 2 seasons, 0 and 8 sacks in his first 2 seasons. Think He can't progress? I am not even including Uchenna Nwosu.I don't get this move.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda. MEH.You could have paid Smith about the same as Lawrence and gotten a way better player.
You of all people should be keen to let people have their opinions, man. Why are you antagonizing people for it? At least argue the facts rather than just starting arguments.Coulda, woulda, shoulda. MEH.
Seems like you might just be making stuff up because they didn't do what YOU wanted.
I saw a post on twitter from PFF saying the same thing. I also watched Brian Nemhauser look it up and there were only 3 above 90 and he was 2nd right behind Maxx Crosby. Either way, 90's are all-pro level.I can't remember where I saw it but out of all the guys that played edge in 2023 only 4 guys had an above 90 grade in tackling and this guy was one of them.
Hey, sorry about the rudeness yesterday. Go Hawks.I can't remember where I saw it but out of all the guys that played edge in 2023 only 4 guys had an above 90 grade in tackling and this guy was one of them.
How so?? The only stat in your very basic comparison shows Lawrence has more tackles than Smith over his career. These guys are edge rushers, so the stat that means the most are sacks and Smith has more sacks than Lawrence over fewer years. I understand Lawrence was injured last year but he hasn't logged a double digit sack year since the 2018 season and he only has 2 years where he did at all. Smith has had 5 seasons of 10+ sacks including last season.Way better player? It's not even really close, Lawrence outclasses him in almost every way.

Dude, lighten up. I'm just messing with him, having some fun. And a reference to the Meh thing yesterday.You of all people should be keen to let people have their opinions, man. Why are you antagonizing people for it? At least argue the facts rather than just starting arguments.

We don't need a bunch of edge rushers that put up 4-6 sacks we need at least one definitive edge rusher (10+) and then depth guys that can give you 4-6.
Smith has proven he can pressure the QB and has better pass rush grades than Lawrence and he's a year younger.
Yep. One Bosa is not necessarily just like the other Bosa.I am not sure how someone can pan this signing and call for Bosa in the same breathe.
