Re: Redskins Best Ever Defensive Tackle

Since a team neeeds two DTs, I would pick Butz at #1 by a wide margin over Diron Talbert at #2.


Daryl Grant played with great hustle and energy but was not in the same class as Butz or Talbert.


Cornelius Griffin cannot even be in this discussion...

I'll never forget the beautiful sight of Grant scoring against Dallas in the playoffs. Take that Danny White!

No brainer...DAVE BUTZ. That dude was a man amongst boys. Totally dominant. I hope Albert Haynesworth is that type of player for the Skins. If so, the Skins defense will be the best in the league.

Re: Redskins Best Ever Defensive Tackle

I already voted for Butz and think Talbert is the clear number 2. I am not getting the C. Griffin hate going on though. No, he is not in the Butz, Talbert class but he is certainly up there with D. Grant in competition for the 3rd spot. Who else would you put at 4 besides Griffin?

Griff has had his injury problems true enough. But he has been a solid producer for us -- he strikes me as one of those guys who can generally beat his own guy but struggles when doubled. I may be wrong, having not studied the tape, just going on what I think I have seen. If true, he and Haynesworth may be the best tackle tandem we have had since Butz, Grant.

Re: Redskins Best Ever Defensive Tackle

I'd have to go with Butz too

He's not top 4, but I've always felt Tim Johnson was underrated during his time here
