Dallas looking to trade Everson Griffen (2 Viewers)

[Saint Droopy]

Griffin has been horrible for Dallas, but who hasn't looked horrible in that defense. He has one of the lower pass rush grades in the league... if it were up to me I'd stay away from him.

 

[Saint Droopy]

Not necessarily. I’d look at how he’s being used, first. Certainly it’s a cause for concern. But it could be that he isn’t being used properly. Or, maybe he just isn’t surrounded by good talent. FWIW, I don’t know the answer to that.

They stick him outside in a 4-mam rush and he just can't win against blockers. Or at least he hasn't won much. Maybe another team can get him back to his pro bowl form but he just hasn't done much in dallas.

PFF isn't the end-all when it comes to evaluations, but they grade him as a 56... https://www.pff.com/nfl/players/everson-griffen/5624

Can he play safety? Seriously, the way Hendrickson has played, and the fact that Davenport looks like he won't be too affected by injury, I don't think we need to trade for a DE. That's just me. The larger problem is the back end.

GO. GET. HIM.

We are at the point of asking why every time we bring some one in they regress, so not sure more trades are the answer until we see the staff actually do something sustained with what they have.

The more crazy people the better!

It's like people have forgotten that this dude ain't all there.

But we've literally turned the defensive coaching staff over through the years. And it still happens. Does Sean Payton have some input to the defensive game we don't know about?

Makes you wonder how do the Ravens (who have changed coordinators and coaches) still field a good defense EVERY year?

 

[Saint Taysom]

Griffin doesn’t come here and replace Marcus Williams... and that’s what is needed more than anything! Competent FS play

 

[Saintsphere]

People lamenting we need safety help is good and well but you can never have enough defensive line depth. We learned this the hard way when we lost Davenport and Rankins in one game last December.

We will see Quinn when we play Los Ozos.

I do not want to see Quinn again. That man went beast mode on our O Line.

 

[Treybad]

we can trade next years second for Dallas 1st and griffin?

You shouldn't watch this Sunday's game.

I don't know what I don't know.

Like most you can only look at the results and the patterns over time and look for the common denominators and try to fill in the blanks.

I wonder if Griffin regrets his decision to sign with the failboys

 

[St.Dan]

Heck yeah. Saints gotta make a move dont let tampa, G.B or Seattle get him. Inaction cost the Saints last year as the 49ers got Sanders. That move singlehandedly propelled S.F to the Superbowl.

....well, along with the cheap shots on Jared Cook when we played them and our secondary's general inability to tackle.
