billnutinphoenix Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 With the cap space we have we could do it....... We just dont have the owner willing to do it, id be shocked if Buffalo grabbed him. If this owner doesn't get rid of Jauron and still wants to people to buy tix - HE HAS TO SIGN SOMEONE OF THE HAYNESWORTH- ILK... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynchMob23 Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Also one thing with Albert that goes back to his college days - he's performed the best when money (the nfl draft, free agency) is on the line. Until then (take a look back) he has been okay. The Titans fear last year was that if they give him 9-10 mil a year, will he play up to it, eat himself out of the league or just be bleh..... Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Cat Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I'd love to see us sign Haynesworth & Peppers. That would be a monster line: Peppers, Stroud, Haynesworth & Schobel. Doubt it would happen, but would be great if it did. I honestly don't think we'd even need an "offense" with that D-Line. We would become a turnover machine. A machine I tell you.

Jerry Jabber Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 The old saying goes, defense wins championships. If we could get Haynesworth paired up with Stroud, plus a stud pass rusher, we'll have one of the best defenses in the league. I think Haynesworth & Stroud could have the potential to be the best DT tandem in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. That would be a dream scenario. If that did happen, we could be the 2000 Ravens that won the Superbowl. Their Defense & Special teams took them to the Superbowl & won it for them. Their offense just did enough to get the job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I know folks have been down on the DB's/LB's for our lack of INT's this year- but I think if you're going to blame ANYONE for a lack of INT's, it's the DLine. QB's NEVER throw under pressure against us. And for the majority of the few INT's we HAVE got, the QB has basically just crapped the bed all on his own. We have not had the ability to impose mistakes on a QB. I think if we did, we'd have perennial pro-Bowlers in Whitner, Poz, Mitchell, Simpson, McKelvin, Youtboty, Greer, and Mcgee!

I agree, I've felt our pass rush has been a problem for a few years now. I feel we need better DE's and if we could land Haynesworth, that would be a big boost to the D-Line. Hargrove is better than Kelsay & Denney, when he was starting (either when Kelsay or Denney was injured- I forget exactly who), we were getting sacks. I know his year suspension is up at the end of the year, but I don't know if he's still under contract, plus with him getting suspended multiple times, it would be a huge risk bringing him back. I'd love it if we could either get Julius Peppers or draft a stud DE in the draft. IMO we need 2 DE's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
