#Chargers have signed edge rusher Kyle Van Noy.

Ex Patriots Free Agent.



EDIT: Added info

[wu-dai clan]

K9 is better in coverage.

:couch:

[Bearded14YourPleasure]

Added versatility to the D. Staley is gonna be able to throw a lot of confusion at opposing QBs. This is not going to be last years defense.

Great signing...

What else do we need???

R-OT ???

[Boltgang74]

Vet RT and we are set....pretty much.

Welcome to the Chargers @KVN_03 !!

Rings.
Wisdom of experience.
Production.
Versatility.

You fit in nicely with this operation.

That takes the sting out a little of skipping over Nakobe Dean that I promise I will only bring up again a few more times.

An edge rusher with 10 passes defended last season (as well as five sacks)? Sounds more like an ILB who can blitz, but Popper must mean that the Chargers intend to play him outside.

Career (8-season) totals: 28.5 sacks, 26 passes defended:

Long way to get here; I think Telesco meant for Van Noy to become a Charger in 2014 and would have nabbed him in the 2nd round in that draft if he had still been available.

[bartman83642]

Think this is a nice pick up. He should really be able to help out. From what I have seen he is a solid tackler.

[equivocation]

His job is to eat snaps, fill gaps, and be consistent. Good rent a vet signing for this stage.
