exactly
He makes one statement about the 2010 defense and the media blows it out of proportion, and that's all some people remember

Is he a cancer in the locker room? I know he had some off the field issues but I forgot what he may have done to piss team mates off. yea he said a few things about old team mates but when did that become such a big deal?

Losing Galette for any length of time is not a good thing for the defense. Can it be overcome? Possibly. However, the defense would have been a surer thing with Galette than without him. We need to hope that the injury does not require surgery.

"Don't sleep on..." "Cancer in the locker room..."

Payton considered cutting him early this off-season after they were unable to trade him...

Loomis contract with Galette was definitely premature...

That said, we had a good draft and free agent addition that, at the least, could rotate and find matchups that will be more than effective...

I'm not sweating this also because early in these OTAs it was reported that his role was going to be specific to pass rush situations...

Losing some depth may be a concern, but you can only keep four OLBers anyways with NFL roster limits...

How are we any worse without him. We were the worse defense on the field. I also recall him running his mouth about going up against a rookie. That didn't work out at all. He does bring a lot of intensity but skill alone, maybe slightly better than average. Where it really hurts is depth. If the defense is going to get better have to have it.

If he was our leader he did a poor job of it last year. No leader lets that crap happen. People forget Browner is our new locker room enforcer. Also, Ellerbe as well has veteran leadership experience.

So because he's voted a captain that makes it right???? Its a reason management wanted him traded this offseason...if it wasnt for that big contract he'd be gone right now.

Locker room cancer
Contract too big
Tried to trade....

....Lost of speculation fellas. But it's just that. Listen, this kid busted his rear to become a starter (remember all rooting for him?)

He may be more of a situational player but he's a good one. And not his fault we had zero depth behind him!
