Greenseed4 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Nick Fairly is bomb. He's no Snacks, but Bowles' defense isn't predicated on getting QB pressure from the NT. In fact, I don't think ANY defense draws up the kind of pressure that Snacks could bring; but everything Harrison brought to this defense has been icing on the cake. At the nose, we just need a plugger, and that is something we could have in Fairly. What we really need for this defense to shine, is some speed at the second level. All those tackles (72 combined), forced fumbles (1), and sacks (0.5) that Harrison brought to the team last year can be replaced (and improved upon) by better linebacker play.

jetscrazey Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Fairley will do just fine with guys like Wilkerson, Richardson, and Williams next to him. I love Snacks but he's a luxury at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate this line, but it legitimately works here: Praise Jah you are not running the team, that's horrendous. My opinion has a basis in the reality of Harrison getting taken off the field half the time over the past two seasons and his value being tied into stopping a less valuable and used aspect of offense. There is no basis for your opinion here beyond more opinion (NTs are rare and indispensible, I assume). Dropping $13+ million on Harrison might be the single worst idea in an offseason full of horrible, misguided, and misinformed opinions on the DL so far.

joewilly12 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 ESPN's Adam Caplan reports the Raiders are "one of a bunch" of teams with interest in free agent Chris Ivory. According to Caplan, the Raiders are "looking for a power back to pair with Latavius Murray." Roy Helu flopped as a free-agent signing last offseason as the complement to Murray, who looked like he was wearing down during the second half of the year as Oakland's workhorse. Ivory is expected to have a strong market and should be able to net $3-4 million per year on a new deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
