Bowen and Hatcher weren't starters on the 32nd ranked defense, for one thing.You said the same about Bowen and Hatcher, nobody should take your evaluation seriously.
So let me get this straight using your logic the whole defense needs replacing because they all played on the 32nd ranked defense.
If Selvie was a former first round pick of Parcells we would be hearing about what a force he is against the run and what a great young player he is. Since there is minimal investment the player is now horrific.So let me get this straight using your logic the whole defense needs replacing because they all played on the 32nd ranked defense.
Nobody ever said Hatcher was a bust he was 3rd round draft pick so lets stop making shit up.
You want to tell us all again how Spears was a elite run stopper.
No, that's not my logic. At this stage I'd be surprised if you ever managed to get the point correctly on the first try.
That is not true, Booze I know for sure, as well as others. In fact I remember when the Bowen debate was raging Booze was telling me "Hatcher is the one who has sucked, he's the one you should be ranting about getting rid of." Others were also supporting the "Hatcher is the one who sucks, not Bowen" argument.
I can tell you about how people like you undervalued him again if you'd like.You want to tell us all again how Spears was a elite run stopper.
I said it and honestly, with one decent year in a Cowboy uniform...I think I was pretty much right.
Between him and Crawford...we don't even need any DT.
Spears was a bust and a progress stopper Hatcher should have started over him 2 seasons before he did.
Hatcher was injured all the time, how exactly would he have accomplished that?
By starting him when he was healthy like Ryan did when he got here.
Weak reasoning. He started because he was drafted in the 1st round. Our esteemed GM then deemed the position set. No need to further address it.
Was Barry Church catastrophic? Huh? Huh?
Size as DE in this defense is not really the same as the 3-4. He's big enough for the strong side. But historically, two fleet DEs, a quick penetrating undertackle and one big NT is how Marinelli has gone. Not really sure where Crawford fits in that because he put on a ton of weight his rookie year for the 304 and then shed a bunch last year for this.
Selvie did an okay job at that last year. Not that I am saying keep him a starter, but you don't necessarily have to be big.
