    wtf? not that lemonier was killing it but he was like 3rd on the team in sacks without getting a whole lot of playing time. And we cut him for a RB of which we already have two pretty good backs. Help me understand. If there's anything on this team that shows a semblance of competence it's our running game. Calm down i said semblance. But nothings gonna look spectacular behind that O line. I don't understand getting rid of a pass rusher that's been seen around the QB in a year where we don't see alot of pass rushers in orange helmets around opposing QB's. Another head scratcher.

    It's a tipoff. We ARE going to draft Garrett after we tank the last 3 games. 😉

    I think Lemonier had a sack Sunday ... surprised we didn't cut Atkinson, we never use him.

    Can he block a nose tackle? We could use someone like that...

    I read where his pro day #'s do not match the tape on him. Dances behind the LOS type of guy.

    I understand, what have we got to lose at this point, try him on for size. He looks good getting off the bus. But why not keep the Lemon guy? Would we even miss Atkinson?

    Lemonier is terrible. Though, I'm surprised it wasn't Can Johnson who has been inactive a lot recently.

    Just mining for players after the Reiter and Cooper successes. Basically how I run my fantasy team.

    Ray Farmer used to do it a lot - I remember lots of complaints about how he was more worried about the guys numbers 50-53 on the roster than the starting line up.

    Now, it seems, our FO has had some moderate success on the OL with Reiter and Cooper. So, that's something.

    I think he starts every week and had a sack Sunday too.

    He does start. But I'm yet to see him do much with any consistency. Maybe I'm missing something but it seemed every time a run got bounced outside because of good play upfront, Lemonier was the one who couldn't make the tackle or funnel it back inside.

    Both are raw as fuck. Our 20 game preseason tryout is almost over.

    What does he bring to the table that we don't already have in Duke, Crowe, Winston etc.?

    Don't understand cutting Lemonier of all people. He's probably responsible for 20% of our total sacks, LOL.

    Holy Analytics! So boils down everything except what's between his ears... could be the issue.

    In Winston's case not being perennially on IR is a likely factor...

    I swear... Glenn must have photos of Jimmah fucking a ferret... or worse...

    We should check and see if he has Jeff Fisher's agent.

    He's like a bad penny.

    How many carries has he had for us?

    I can only think of one in which he got like one yard, got hit, hurt and fumbled...

    Instead of drafting at 2, 4, or 22 we get Darius Jackson an undrafted free agent nobody ever heard of. Meanwhile, Khalil Mack is killing it! He leads the league in sacks while Justin Gilbert is where?

    So, you are opposed to this adminstration picking up a RB on waivers because the past administration whiffed on Mack and Gilbert?

    Makes a lot of sense.

    Good teams never try to add talent to the bottom of the roster.
