Re: Offseason Focus: Defensive Line

But that didn't happen.

We were not in as favorable a situation with the cap last season and our defense hadn't yet performed like a sieve against the run yet again, so there wasn't the same sense of urgency that exists this season.

This season Harrison counts $10.6M against the Giants cap and he is guaranteed $24M over the length of his contract. Apparently, the Skins didn't want to carry that kind of cap and financial burden to sign him last year.

It doesn't matter if Harrison is better than Williams because we can't choose between the two of them. We can only learn from what the Giants did to improve their DL last season. I think we can find some DL help in FA this season if Scot decides to go after one or two of them.
Snacks is a damn boss...he ended our season with the play against C Thompson screen pass. And ill never forget how he effing dominated our oline 2 seasons ago when we played the Jets.

The guy is worth the money, no question. All pro last 2 seasons.
