    Admittedly I don't know much about the guy, but his stats don't jump out, so what makes him great? Honest question

          You know how hippos are made out to be sweet and silly, like big cows, but are actually extremely dangerous and can kill you with stunning brutality? The Pacers are the NBA's hippos....Matt Moore CBS Sports....

            I saw the dance, but it seems a lot of money for a 4-5 year pro who has 3 career sacks.

              He plays NT there job isn't to put up stats. One of the most unrewarding jobs in football. Kind of like an OL man don't judge on stats. I don't know much about him ethier but stats for NTs don't tell the story. Especially if the stat you are looking at is sacks that isn't his job.

                on Ricky Jean

                Adam Caplan ‏@caplannfl
                Reason why as many as 10 teams were on him earlier this week: Only DL capable of starting at all 3 positions on 3-man DL.

                  Damn, the man is close to 300lbs. Once again it appears the Colts braintrust loves them big guys in the trenches. Just kind of strange (in a good way) after years of underweight but fast.

                    The connection is that our DC Greg Manusky was with the Niners when Jean was drafted. IF I had to guess thats why we went hard for him.

                          Seems light to play nose unless everyone is still reporting his college weight. I wonder if he's targeted to play DE with Moala backing him up.

                            Ya we will use him as a DE more than a nose. We have guys to play nose but he don't have guys who are healthy and can play DE in our system.

                              Very happy with this i think this is a guy who was kinda thrown under the bus with all the stars in the 49ers

                              think he could really brake out for us
                              Counting down the days untill DJ Augustin's contract expires.
