EVERY YEAR, there are comments like Haz\'s made and opportunities missed, and I just cannot understand it.

It\'s a freakin\' fourth rounder, Haz! Don\'t be a dumbazz. What, is it so important that we draft a 4th round Waterboy!?
WTF. EDIT: Sure Sharper is getting a little long in the tooth, and he may cost a little bit, but we do need some vetran leadership on our LB crew and it ain\'t gonna be Ruff. [Edited on 11/3/2005 by JKool] |

I agree completely with whoever said this is reminiscent of the fight to prove we did not need a CB for so long, so we never went after one or drafted one. This is too close to the same thing. This \"we are gonna prove we know our team better than anyone else\" crap has to stop.

If any positive can be drawn from that I think it would have to be that Haslett is at least showing pride in who he has, and what he thinks they can do...
That can sometimes mean alot to people...especially players... Haslett...it\'s your team to lose...I hope you know what your doing... |

Wasn\'t he a LB? I don\'t get it. As I\'ve said before, you take the great defenses of the past and you can see what position made them good. Usually, it\'s the linebackers that stand out. 85 Bears Mike Singletary Otis Wilson Wilbur Marshall 90 Giants Lawrence Taylor Carl Banks Pepper Johnson 2000 Ravens Ray Lewis Peter Boulware Jamie Sharper Dome Patrol Sam Mills Ricky Jackson Pat Swilling Vaughn Johnson I know there were good players at the other positions on these defenses, but to me, and I think to most people, the LB corps stands out as the strong point on each team. Last year when I posted the Haslett comment on linebackers it was labeled \"an obvious smokescreen to allow us to get a first round linebacker.\" From what I\'ve seen over the past couple of years, Haslett doesn\'t have a smokescreen. He has a clear plastic shower curtain. |
