Tim Jernigan is NOT a Texan.

Jernigan lands a one-year deal worth $3.75 million with $1.25 million guaranteed according to his agent Bill Johnson.
Timmy Jernigan has been known as a run-stuffer since arriving at the league in 2014 with Baltimore. He has made his way in the NFL that way with Philadelphia but 2019 was littered with injuries. He is going to have to show he is healthy but with the team unable to take a look at players due to the COVID-19 situation and his deal with the Texans will be complete when he takes a complete physical.

Better than nothing.

Yeah these are the type of player contracts that I prefer with low-cost and High ceiling.

I liked him in college. In the NFL some said he had an attitude issue. If he plays 70% of the snaps or close, it's a good move. If he is 100% and can play like he has in the past, it's an amazing deal. Then either let him go after the season or ink him to a cap friendly deal.

Or at least someone who can be a solid rotation guy on the line. I’m curious to know what CnD’s analysis is on his recent injury woes, what we can expect on that front.

You always worry about a lineman who has had surgery for a cervical disc issue.............it was minimally invasive surgery in May 2018.............essentially returned in week 16, and although his reps were limited by the team, he played pretty well, obtaining a half sack in each of his playoff games. Week 2 last year, he suffered an uncomplicated simple cracked metatarsal foot stress fracture (not a Lisfranc) which required no surgery............when he returned, he was again limited by the team some, but performed well..........and with no apparent recurrent problems with his back.
The Eagles released him because they were looking at an $11 million contract this year. There is a good chance that he has no further problems with either of his previous injuries, and if so, I believe we will have picked up a player that likely picks up where Reader left off.................but a heck of a bargain.

I like the signing only because it takes NT out of the category of musts in the draft. Jernigan and Dunn can hold down the nose next year if we do not happen to find good value in the draft at that position (like Davin Hamilton at 90 or Bravvion Roy at 171).

High motor guy. Considering they just gave Brandon Dunn (who? Lol) 12Ms @ 4M per the Jernigan deal looks much better for a much better player and guess what? It was the first contract that Emperor NoBrien utilized provisions! Lol.
Good deal among a swarm of horrible ones.

Yes
No offense to you, but these radio guys haven't been right about much. Not impressed with Stoerner, especially.
You are feeling very optimistic tonight.
Reader showed for every game and played nearly 60% of the snaps. Even a young, healthy Jernigan didn't produce near Reader's level. A smart GM still finds a young nose in this draft.

IIRC he never played nose even in college and coming out of Seminoles he was ranked a bit above average. He is just over 6'1 1/2 inches and listed at 295 but has build to hold more if Weaver wants him there. I see him on outside only but remember that Reader played DE frequently. On 610 radio Stoerner and Shorts talked of him playing DE across from Watt and think he will take some attention off JJ.

just passing on info not giving sources polygraphs. They are as correct as I am so...
Makes sense. The DE opposite Watt is more an UT than DE. The OLB provides the edge rush.

Predicted to play DE for the Texans. He is 295lbs not really a NT more of a tweener but nothing wrong with that. We have had a few who can get it done at DT and DE. Plus, it's a base 3-4 D. However, like New England we play a multiple front. It is a 3-4 base and some games it's for 100% of the snaps and others it is for 20%. We also nickel and dime a lot.

He will not be much as a sacker but hopefully eats up some blockers time. He lifted 225 at combine 27 times and my understanding he has gotten stronger as most vets do. That does sound like Reader.

Fandom 101 brother. But the thing is Billy is doing more stuff we all disapprove of starting from his terrible game management all the way to these insanely trades.
You pretty much understand the way things work around these parts.
That’s interesting. has this been verified?
it would be nice to finally find a replacement for the ninja assassin. A base offense can double two guys to keep the QB clean. A third guy who can beat one on one matchups is going to help.
True dat !

get what you pay for generally, who’s to say what comes of this move as opposed to locking up one of the top young NT’s in the game and building around him with cheap upside guys like Jernigan.
That costs money and the McNairs don't do this. But hey, they're winning that salary cap championship.
We’re almost always up against the cap.

Wade Philips 3-4 is not similar to Crennel's 3-4 in the way they play their DL especially.

For me it's not so much but how they spend.
How did Rex Ryan's 3-4 compare to RAC's/Wade's?
I'm hoping that Weaver's defense is more like Rex defense.

Unless im stuck on his NYJs run, I believe most of the pressure derives more from the interior than the edges
Jernigan should be a good fit then.

LBs Preston and Zac Brown were tremendous in Buffalo. Lorenzo Alexander had that monster year.
LB David Harris/LB Bart Scott/DE Shaun Ellis were phenomenal in NY
Ellis was pretty good off of the edge if I remember correctly.

Wade plays an odd 3-4, if I recall correctly you have the DLmen in the gap of OL. Meaning a smaller NT/ DT can be used like a DE. In concert with an OLB/s. The idea is to get pressure before the OL can get a body on the DL. I use to have a link to an article about it.
