Redskins agreed to terms with DL Clifton Geathers, formerly of the Eagles. | ||||||
Geathers appeared in all 16 games last season, making one start. He played 254 snaps, generating no pass rush. Geathers is a mountainous 6-foot-7 and 320 pounds, but has only one career sack. He'll be "just a guy" for the Redskins. | ||||||

A mountain at 6-foot-7 and 320 pounds, Geathers has the height and size 3-4 teams want at defensive end. The 2010 sixth-round pick has appeared in just 15 career games, notching five tackles and one sack. Geathers has bounced around the league, spending time with the Browns, Seahawks, Cowboys, and Colts. The 25-year-old will compete for a roster spot in Eagles training camp. | ||||||

The Seahawks have done an admirable job of talent collection under first-year GM John Schneider, and Geathers possesses plenty of potential at 6'8/281 with nearly 37-inch arms. He'll compete for a spot at the five technique. | ||||||

He goes to make room for Chris Baker. Geathers is a physically imposing prospect at 6'8/281, but the Fins think they'll get more production from the undersized Baker. Geathers is likely to resurface on the practice squad. | ||||||

First-round pick DL Jared Odrick (foot, fibula) was recently placed on injured reserve after missing all but Week 1. The Dolphins, possessing the No. 16-ranked run defense, used the available roster spot to replace Odrick on their front seven, and have a daunting matchup Week 7 when the Steelers come to town. | ||||||

Geathers has a lot of work to do to reach his full potential, but he's a mammoth of a man at 6-foot-9 and 280-plus pounds with a sub-5.0 second forty-yard dash time. He'll be developed as the Dolphins' fifth end this season. | ||||||

A boom-or-bust prospect with freakish length at 6'8/281 with 36 3/4-inch arms and a sub-5.0 forty, Geathers has Calais Campbell-like upside. His motor ran hot and cold at South Carolina, however, and he certainly could've used another year under Steve Spurrier instead of leaving school early. | ||||||
