Me too. Clay isn't the same player and doesn't get big sack totals but he still can pressure the passer and that's what we need.
Welcome aboard Clay and family!

His cap hit was around $9 million - but cap savings was around $6 million
As i've often beaten a dead horse about...i don't care about the money. Free agency is overpriced no matter who or what.
I'm kind of meh on the player at this point. I like the experience factor. That's about it. I look forward to seeing on the field what he's got left.

Wade liked Ebu and Longacre as starters on the edge last year, tomas.
Let that sink in for just a minute.
It took Wade 10-11 games to figure out how the hell to use Peters last year.
Both Brockers and Suh underwhelmed in ‘18.
Wade insisted on Barron at ILB.
I like Wade, myself, but he’s NOT infallible.
lol..
you sound like I did up to the playoffs last year...Like Wades...Loved his Pops..but I was honestly ready for us to move in a different direction..but we made the right adjustments...
in his defense... Longacre and Ebu were our best options at those spots when the season started.. it's not like we had much of a choice...
and although I wanted us to move on from Barron at Inside LB years ago... Greg Williams had Barron there before Wade did

I love this signing. Our LBs weren't exactly good last year.
Our defense just got a lot hairier.
Our defense just got a lot hairier.
it certainly adds some versatility to our front 7...
if Ebu and/or Obo play well.... Wade can get creative for us to keep Clay on the field more

Agreed! I think (Hope!) that Matthews will bring even more intensity and experience to the Rams Defense!!!

Clay may not be as fast anymore, but I'd rather have someone that's proactively diagnosing a play instead of reacting and overpursing. Hopefully Weddle and Clay bring that discipline to the def.
I think he's referring to all the hair growth on our new players. Steinbrenner hated long hair and beards.
Contract initially sounds too much, but let's see what it comes down to. My guess is he plays ILB predominantly. Wade wanted veteran leadership, bam, got it.
I think Kiser may have potential, but Clay is a huge upgrade on experience and recognition alone.
Rams trying to put themselves in position to field a BPA in early second round. If Pats don't trade for Rosen, that phone ringing will break a pace maker!

One of the worst roughing calls IMO...
