Buccaneers | Lawrence Sidbury re-signs Mon Mar 9, 05:33 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers DL Lawrence Sidbury re-signed to an undisclosed deal Monday, March 9.
| Footballguys view: We'll continue to see Sidbury--and his trademarked spin move--in Tampa. They brought him in late last year after he began 2014 with the Houston Texans. Sidbury is a reserve player and part-time pass-rusher at best. |

Buccaneers | Make roster moves Wed Dec 17, 11:54 AM
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers signed DE Lawrence Sidbury (Colts) Wednesday, Dec. 17. Terms of the contract were not disclosed. In a corresponding move, the team released CB Crezdon Butler.
| Footballguys view: Sidbury was an interesting prospect years ago when he came out of Richmond. His devastating spin move in college has not worked so well as a pro. Sidbury has failed to further develop his raw skill set, and that's why he's bounced around to several different teams. |

Falcons | Team considers bigger role for Lawrence Sidbury Sat Dec 3, 01:22 AM
Atlanta Falcons DL Lawrence Sidbury is tied for the team lead with DL John Abraham with four sacks, and the team is mulling a larger role for the reserve. "He's still a young player. I know he's been here some years now, but he's still a young player," defensive coordinator Brian Van Gorder said. "He's starting to finally get a little bit more comfort level with the NFL and our system. Again, the production, the two sacks (in Week 12) were outstanding. We have to take a good, hard look at him."

Falcons | Three to compete for snaps at defensive end Fri Jul 2, 12:54 PM
Atlanta Falcons DEs Kroy Biermann, Jamaal Anderson and Lawrence Sidbury will compete for snaps at left defensive end during training camp, according to D. Orlando Ledbetter, of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
| Footballguys view: Biermann was a good playmaker last year, but he will probably be too up-and-down to trust in IDP leagues. Sidbury is the guy to own in dynasty leagues, and he could make a big step forward this year. |

Falcons | Sidbury signed Thu Jul 16, 10:30 AM
The Atlanta Falcons have signed rookie DE Lawrence Sidbury, a fourth-round selection in this year's NFL Draft. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Sidbury probably needs some ramp-up time because he played a lower level of college football, but he has the energy, quickness, and wide repertoire of pass rush moves to be the complement to John Abraham that the Falcons hoped they were getting when they took Jamaal Anderson eighth overall in 2007. |

Falcons | Other ends seeing more work with Abraham out of action Wed May 27, 06:02 AM
D. Orlando Ledbetter, of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, reports with Atlanta Falcons DE John Abraham (undisclosed) missing action during OTAs, the team is able to give more snaps to DL Jamaal Anderson, Kroy Biermann, Chauncey Davis and Lawrence Sidbury.
| Footballguys view: The Falcons selected Lawrence Sidbury in the 4th round of the 2009 NFL Draft and he is certainly a player to keep an eye on because his potential as a pass rusher is huge. In the FCS Championship Game Sidbury had an amazing performance with 4 game-changing sacks to help seal the victory for the Richmond Spiders. He was at both the Shrine Game and the Senior Bowl this year and stood out from the crowd in both Houston and Mobile. He is a tremendous athlete that has perfected his "Sidbury Spin" move to get after the QB. It could take a few years for him to develop fully as a pass rusher, but it's likely that the Falcons got a steal in the 4th round. |
