I'm surprised that Fitz values himself so highly. I was fine with keeping him for the right price, but I'm glad we're not overpaying here. It's a bad habit to get into.
I was lukewarm on bringing Fitz back, but if that's what he wants or feels that he needs to do then whatever. I'm all for athletes trying to get as much bread as they can, but I think everyone knows that this year was a product of Chan and Decker/Marshall. This is what Fitz does though, has one average-good season and then dupe the next sucker. I'm all for Geno and Petty duking it out with whatever third option we draft.

I had a sense he was a goner. Snacks is basically the best run defender in the NFL and that has to count for more than we are able to give him. All things considered I'm OK with it inasmuch as we get some return out of Wilkerson and sign Henderson. Our run D is usually the most consistent thing on our team.

Eh, I'm not too mad about it. On one hand, Snacks was a great run defender and was great at eating up blockers. But on the other hand, he was a 2 down tackle that didn't offer much in the passing game. I'm not keen on giving somebody like that big money.

Let him walk, we'll get a nice comp pick for him. Sign Terrance Knighton on the cheap and call it a day :manny:

Who is a three down plug in the middle outside of two or three players in the league?

It's rare you find a player that's great any one thing...snacks was great at his thing

Ladarius Green would be an obvious upgrade from Cumberland.
