but Tampa has been one of the leagues best at stopping the run. Interesting that he is just over 300 lbs.
Still think the big get is the DE. This may still come in FA or in the draft with a premium pick. Campbell and draft pick would be a nice get for that third starting DL.
I have no idea what role Nunez-Roches played in the Tampa run D, but I do know that Vita Vea is the reason the Tampa run D has been stingy. He is completely unblockable.
And then add in the extra ingredients with White and David behind him.

If only the Giants had a dominant DL for him to play next to.

We got gashed every time Dex was off the field, and we cant have him on the field as much as we did last year either. This seems like someone who knows what he is doing and can hold his own in run defense.
Every position we pick up is probably going to be ones that we still look the draft but some of them are going to be on day three. Don’t want to be forced to draft higher than necessary and need to give time for rookies to develop. This is the kind of guy you need to hold the fort.
What are the difference in skills required for stopping the run versus pass blocking/rushing?
Stopping the run: be a fat f***, get in the way.
Pass blocking: have long arms, wave them around.
Seriously, I'd like to be enlightened on this subject.
I don't know a lot about him, but Lord knows we need depth @ DT. I don't think it's sustainable for Leo & Dex to log as many snaps as they did last season.
play next to Dex some. He penetrates decently, a better version of N. Williams. His contract would indicate they see him as a rotational piece at least.

Nunez-Roches agreed to a 3-year deal worth $12m with $7.5m gtd.
Nothing outrageous.
It’s a pretty good deal for a depth guy. Shows he’s valued much more than a vet min guy like Ellis was. Based on that number, they see him as a guy who will play ~30% of snaps.
I’d rule out Zach Allen, who some are still hoping for. Probably add another DL in draft and roll with Dex, Leo, RNR, Davidson, Rook, and possibly Anderson/Butler
would be hard for him to not upgrade ellis but they paid him better
than id have guessed. hopefully a find but historically we have havent had great luck with these types.
the bucs were paying him somewhat comparably and he was a known quantity for them, but i think i'd have preferred to spend this $ plus whatever feliciano gets on bringing back gates.
when he commented that they don't have to look at just minimum guys. Someone who costs roughly 2.5-3 million a year he said "we can afford that!" as we see here.

Former Cardinals’ DE Zach Allen reached agreement on a three-year, $45.75 million deal that includes $32.5 million guaranteed at signing, per source. Allen is reunited with Denver DC Vance Joseph.

And that’s why we were not interested. Unless you are like a player or two away from a SB, the good GM’s will do what Schoen did today. Sign a player like Okereke, who is young and ascending to what will look like a bargain deal in a few years if he continues to develop and then sign low and mid level guys like Nacho to fill gaps while you wait for the drafted players to develop.

Please tell me that you are being sarcastic. Seems like a decent price for a good rotational d-lineman
Since dexter gonna get 4 yrs 90 million. Nah. It’s what you pay someone who u think can get some PT. And not have a big drop off. Probably Austin Johnson level, which we misssed. If we are lucky, bj hill.

Excellent work. Thread winner.
lol
Nice! Don't think he'll get #56 with the Giants, though (-:
Probably for AAV purposes. Supposedly last year is easy to walk away from.

YEP better than jelly (who was bad) and t williams too (was was so so at best)
It's comments like this that shows how much fans do not understand NFL contracts in the slightest.
Nice

I wonder if he has been to Wish Willy's on Caye Caulker...

He also seems to be good at locating the ball.
