That's completely not true. Just because he's been injured this year doesnt mean he's "been injured for years." The past 3 years he started 15 games, 14, and 14. He was injured in 02, before that he started 16 games, 16, and 16. Oh and by the way, to all of those saying he is aging, he only played in 2 games this year but yet had 3.5 sacks and a forced fumble. Of course he is aging, but I think a veteran along with Schobel on our line would be a good thing.
He forces a ridiculous amount of turnovers. 22 forced fumbles in 5 years.... I'd love to see that production here in Buffalo.
If you want to make a case against Kearse in Buffalo then tell me that our problem is our rush defense, and Kearse is definitely a pass rusher and would make our run defense worse. Or tell me that he's never really played in cold weather, even in philly. But dont tell me that he has nothing left or that his salary would be high since we will have like a gagillion dollars to spend next year. There are better reasons for why Kearse shouldnt come here.
Personally I would like to take a shot at him if he is cut. Regardless of his age or w/e.... he still is a fear to the opposing offensive tackle, and can still come up with the big sack and/or forced fumble. He is a veteran, a leader, and a hustler on defense. He has great work ethic when healthy and is the type of leader I would like to see on our very inexperienced defensive line.
