Skuta has been relatively healthy and had 5 sacks and 3 FFs in 10 games under Fangio. A good depth player, will be cheaper than Houston. Houston supposedly being the starter has only started 10 games in 3 years. I think he will be gone due to reliability more than anything. Report

Houston supposedly being the starter has only started 10 games in 3 years. I think he will be gone due to reliability more than anything. I was just reading where Skuta can play both ILB and OLB, which could free up one spot for CB or S. ILB= Kwiat-Freeman-Trevathan-Timu-Jones-Anderson OLB= Floyd-Houston-McPhee-Young-Acho So we lose Houston, Acho, Jones,Anderson and just keep Skuta to fill in the 4th spot in both positions. Keep Timu until Trevathan is healthy. Report
May 9, 20178 yr comment_164858 Didn't he play in SF under Fangio? I thought we were looking to him a few years ago. Either way, a nice depth signing. Less drop off from starter to subs is another way to improve roster. Report
May 9, 20178 yr comment_164859 Maybe a replacement for Christian Jones, who seems to have occupied a similar role. Report
