Re: Time to trade for defensive help?
Exactly. We're only short 1 pick and we'll be OK cap wise especially with Bushrod (2013 UFA 8 mill this season)
Will Smith (due 15 mill in 2013, ain't gonna happen) Roman Harper (due 8 mill, will renegotiate or bye bye) Sedrick Ellis (2013 UFA, 8 mill this season) Malcolm Jenkins (due 4 mill, will renegotiate or bye bye) Thats over 40 million coming off the books next season. I'd imagine we try and resign all at much lower salaries. |

Re: Time to trade for defensive help?
Would Ingram even bring anything? He's hot garbage if you ask me..

Re: Time to trade for defensive help?
Yeah I am struggling to like him more and more as the games go by. I do think Carmichael is handcuffing him though. It is common knowledge now that when Ingram is in the backfield it is a run. Hard to surprise a D when as soon as they see your face they adjust the D play.

Re: Time to trade for defensive help?
Exactly. I haven't been a fan of this thought mainly because I still don't think we have seen him used to his capability, but what about Ingram?

Re: Time to trade for defensive help?
To think we traded up just to get Ingram...

Harper is playing out of position...he'd be a better lb than Shanle. I think we could upgrade these positions for the same price
