What about.....

Um, The Bucs, Giants and Panthers ALL have DTs that take pressure off their ends. The Saints do not. So just picking a "running mate" is not a sufficient discussion of the lack of talent along our D-line. I think the DTs allowed for them to be able to still put up numbers, and especially the players that played alongside them. NOONE gave a crap about our DTs. And I still don't see where Peppers, Rice or Strahan were ever asked to play DT, do you? SO disagree all you like, the facts stand for themselves. Also, how many times did you see Grant play last year? Just curious.

As far as all the what ifs about this year, what if we still don't have a DT worth a damn? What if we don't draft a LB and this is the best we're gonna get? What if we don't draft a corner and that's the best we're gonna get? What if we draft Mario Williams and Grant is back in a rotation and asked to play DT again? Is that enough what ifs?
