sandtrap made the correct point and you guys are missing it. He's got an automatic 8 game suspension. Now if it's November and our line is battered, we are potentially in the playoff hunt but giving up big yards on the ground each week then this would at least be worth discussing. But as it stands now, Tank is not going to be playing for anyone until midway through this season at the earliest.

Yes but we could sign him now with it in our minds that we would have him after this season.

Well we could also sign Jeff George with it in our minds that he would lead us to the superbowl. However, I don't think we'll be spending a valuable roster spot on either of them.

Point taken, but we would have to spend as much on Tank.

I hear Ray Caruth will be paroled soon as well, we should start negotiating with his agent now!

Hell, while we are at it Michael Westbrook isnt doing anything right now either. Lets just go get them all. Look I was just saying for the sake of argument that it could be looked at as an investment. Personally I could care less either way.

Signing him would be sending a real positive message to our hard-working overachievers that keep their noses clean. I give better chances of us signing Deion Sanders over Tank the Shank.

What's the big deal?????? It worked in the Longest yard.

The flip side is our d-line could not rush the passer for crap. Plus if I remember correctly, the last game of the year, Tiki ran for somthing like 235 yards. You just don't see that very often in the NFL. So our d-line is VERY questionable at best. Yeah it's good to have great character guys, but if they aren't any good then we gotta look at all the options.
It's not going to happen on Gibbs' watch but I would try and sign the guy.
