Another great move by Dimitroff!

Much like (I think it was) Clyde Simmons who played opposite Reggie white and with Jerome Brown. He had a shoot ton of sacks one year with Philly. Following year he signed with Arizona, and as they went so did his career.

I remember them talking so much s*%# after that signing. Wonder how they feel now?

Probably a lot like they felt yesterday when Lofton broke up a pass on a third down killing an Atlanta drive. Exactly what they said he couldn't do when they lost him.

Bring him in for a week or two just to piss the Falcons off.

You'd be doing the other team a favor. You'd be getting absolutely no rush from his side of the line. I don't even remember the last time he had a sack.

He would fit in Spags system to a tee, could take Smiths spot and do a much better job. He is a 4-3 player not a 3-4.

Interesting read on Ray Edwards, red flag has to be his off field stuff, like being a party animal. Maybe a change will do him well, he is only 27, and did have a nice career for the Vikings.
