| Sporting News Unit Analysis: Defensive Tackles May 13: Washington Redskins: "B - Cornelius Griffin is a force; Brandon Noble has good run-stoppin ability." Atleast they give Griffin some credit for his performance last season...

| Re: Sporting News Unit Analysis: Defensive Tackles i mean about time they give him his props. he is a beast with plenty more talent than what he showed last year at times. I would prefer another dt to go along with him. |

| Re: Sporting News Unit Analysis: Defensive Tackles I just hope that Griffin can continue to overachieve. The whole unit gets the chance to show it wasn't a one-hit wonder this year. If anyone can do it, GW can. I'm interested to see how he can integrate the rookies and Holdman.

| Re: Sporting News Unit Analysis: Defensive Tackles Big Joe was definitely pretty solid, hopefully Noble will be stronger too. |

| Re: Sporting News Unit Analysis: Defensive Tackles What is that status of Noble's injury? He'll be ready for regular season right?

| Re: Sporting News Unit Analysis: Defensive Tackles I think our DTs last year really showed what the skins want to be--underacheivers with chips on their shoulders who just make play after play. Real blue collar stuff. I loved watching those guys stuff the run last year. And I was worried about them before the season. I'm actually kinda glad Griffen didn't make the pro-bowl last year--he's still got to prove it, and that's excellent motivation.

| Re: Sporting News Unit Analysis: Defensive Tackles Noble's problem is not with the knee he tore up two years ago--it's with the other knee. It's an infection due to minor surgery. From what I read, he'll be ready, but those things can linger. He's a tough dude though--kind of a lumber jack playing football.

| Re: Sporting News Unit Analysis: Defensive Tackles I have no doubts in my mind that our defense will be ready to go this year. I, too, hope Griffin can continue to impress this year.

| Re: Sporting News Unit Analysis: Defensive Tackles True. I remember Noble wearing that club last year when he broke his hand. If not, we STILL have loads of depth.

| Re: Sporting News Unit Analysis: Defensive Tackles I thought they played adequately for a fill-in. Granted, they won't be playmakers, but I'm not worried about their abilities.
