Some reasons for optimism with the pass rush

[hawkfan68]

Nick Perry, Muhammad Wilkerson, and Corey Liuget are still available. Maybe with the Reed suspension, one or more of these guys get a deeper look.

 

[McGruff]

Rubin still there too.

Reed is now officially last years news...show me some bright side now.

Optimism now?

It will need to wait until the pads go on.

I predict however the team may make a roster move or two before being set for the season, as much as they ever are set.

This news about Reed is not good news by any stretch. The coaches will need to be creative, and some younger players will need to step forward and show they deserve to be on the roster.

Yeah, I'm sure they will add someone. Especially after cuts, there's always a really good player who becomes available. That being said, the pound the rock and eat the clock is gonna' be incredibly important this year.
Speaking of adding players, Mike Daniels just got cut from Green Bay. That's a surprise, he won't stay unemployed for long imo.

I am officially in praying mode for a miracle in regards to the pass rush after the Reed suspension.

Different direction?

Let's hope there is a different direction.

 

[jammerhawk]

Well the different direction is DT - Earl Mitchell, see other thread reporting his signing.

It is also now being reported by several sources that Ziggy Ansah has been cleared to practice which is good news and means he could be available at the very beginning of the season.
