He may end up being a rusher for obvious passing downs. I’m fine with that if he excels at it |

I mean, it doesn't say a ton, but it says something and it's not great. They didn't commit a ton but it IS 2 years and $15 million (with effectively a team option for $9 million on the back). Not much, but certainly not nothin'. Now the counter is pretty easy - Omenihu is probably gone into mid-October at least and he'll be a FA next season. So if FAU develops, ideally you still have someone like Danna as a rotational player this year and next anyway. And he wasn't SUPER expensive. Nor do we have anything at all on the way up that could act as that sort of inside/outside rotational DE behind Omenihu and Danna. So ultimately you can find a home for Danna even if FAU breaks out. But if we'd have seen a little more from FAU, I think they'd have probably moved on from Danna and maybe put a little draft capital at the position this past off-season. |

I'll not knock them too much for him. It was a smart positional pick with where we were. I might have taken a different player at the time, but positionally that's where I'd have probably went. |

It was eminently defensible even if it doesn't work out. But it's okay to wonder if it's gonna work out. EDIT: Yup - was pretty damn measured on the pick. Quote:
Which is rare for me. But 'standard' first round pick has about a 50/50 bust rate at best. And we're way back at the back. It's okay to wonder... |

1 Pass defensed and 1 QB hit. He's getting much better. Time for an Old Milwaukee to celebrate.

Disappointing preseason from FAU- didn’t see much from him. I was hoping he’d take a pretty big step forward this season - like Karlaftis did last year. He still might but I’m less hopeful than I was.

We're going to need to invest in DE again next year. Probably DT too.

Yeah, this one is not looking good. Dude was a first round pick and could barely flash against scrubs who will be out of the league after a year in a championship program. Looks like a miss.

Showed some life game 1 of the preseason and regressed the other 2 games. Not going to entirely write him off at this moment, but if there isn't any in season improvement and a significant jump next offseason/season then its probably not happening.

He made plays in limited action last year. Had a really nice TFL during the Super Bowl.
He can get better. There's still time. Khalen Saunders didn't become a good impactful player until year 4. |
