Re: Redskins Sign DT Anthony Bryant
I think you may be closer to the truth than anyone else. Montgomery can begin the season as the nose tackle if Ma'ake is not ready but Bryant should provide some insurance just in case Ma'ake has a setback because he may not be at full strength until October or November. However this is a pretty good sign that we are passing on any defensive tackles in the draft in place of offensive linemen and Inside linebackers.

Re: Redskins Sign DT Anthony Bryant
I wish we could grab some O-linemen from the dumpster too. Even though they also would be gone by the season, it'd at least make me feel better.
I'm sure there are some big dudes eating their lives away in Miami that could lose 100 lbs by the start of the season and be a starting O-linemen for us...

Re: Redskins Sign DT Anthony Bryant
Well he is young and if he gives it 110% he can be a good stopgap for the season. You never know he might get coached up.

Re: Redskins Sign DT Anthony Bryant
The guy looks the part (as a NT). The question is has he played the part before. The Bucs and Lions are a 4-3 D and only the Fins are a 3-4, though he played in only 1 game. Hope he has hidden abilities that Bucs, Lions & Fins have missed that we can unearth.

Re: Redskins Sign DT Anthony Bryant
I guess as long as he keeps the LB's clean.

Re: Redskins Sign DT Anthony Bryant
I highly doubt that signing a guy who's done nothing is a pretty good sign that we'll pass on DT's. We may not address the position in the draft (at least high picks.. err.. pick so far), but this isn't the reason why.

Re: Redskins Sign DT Anthony Bryant
His lack of tackles really doesn't bother me because a nose takle is nothing more than a space eater anyway. Judging from looks something tells me that this guy can eat a lot of space. Hell, it looks like he can eat a lot of things.

Re: Redskins Sign DT Anthony Bryant
It looks like they are building competition for the nose tackle position. They have Kemoeatu, Montgomery, and now Bryant to fight for 2 spots as a NT. Golston could also play Nose on passing downs. They could move Haynesworth all over on the line to give him some mismatches.
Losing Haynesworth would crush our D-line. I am ok with a 3-4, but we have to keep Albert, or this could be a complete disaster. |

Re: Redskins Sign DT Anthony Bryant
I found an interesting write-up on Mr. Bryant from USA Today for the 05 draft.
I'd link it but I'm new to the board and a hamstrung rookie. Maybe someone else can. Kinda interesting quote from the analysis: "He has been only an adequate performer throughout his career and with his size and strength, might be better suited for nose guard or switch to the offensive line. " Finally: \o/ First post on the Warpath! |
