He's got this season to prove he's not a bust in my eyes. If he can stay healthy he's shown he can deliver some pressure in some situations. Maybe this'll be the year he takes it to a new level?...one can dream.

Very solid when healthy. Needs a pitch count.

I like that it is in his court to "stick it to the team" and play into a contract BIGGER than the $7.x million they could have optioned him for.

Personally I don't predict that will happen. But I hope it does! Can you imagine if we got that kind of production out of him this year?

Yeah but. That would be a great problem to have next year if he had that kind of production this year.

Yeah, Nick Perry is definitely not a bust . . . yet. He's been a decent player that has been slowed by injuries. But the guy can obviously play. His talent is undeniable. This upcoming season is likely a make-or-break it year for him. He could turn the corner, or he could fade into mediocrity. I can honestly see it going either way. While it's probably more likely that he will not take his game to the next level, I certainly wouldn't be shocked if he did.

Perry might not be a bust, but I think it's fair to suggest he deserves some of the same thoughts/treatment that Hawk got for not living up to his draft position. Hawk while not amazing, was able to consistently stay on the field for years. While Perry flashes once in a while and then he's gone.

Also I keep hearing about Perry's injuries holding him back... he played in 15 games last year. I don't think his lack of plays last year was due to injuries as much as his lack of playing time because he was the 4th OLB as Neal got (and I assume earned) more snaps than him. I know some of Neal's snaps came at DL, but I also think Neal got more OLB snaps. So my thought is Perry needs to do better in practice to get (and hopefully earn) more snaps in games... at least if he wants more playing time.

Guys, he is not going to produce any more this year than we have become used to.

He is the 3rd string OLB.

Can't produce if you are not on the field.

Though, I never thought he was given much of a chance. Our staff seems to hate rookies, and a rookie who gets injured becomes a rookie twice. And by that point, he is a forgotten man.
