I would rather he not go back to Philly as I believe he would do well in Johnson's system. On the other hand, he may really have lost it the last two years and would only be an average guy for them. Regardless, I don't think they have anyone decent in the middle now and even an average MLB would be an upgrade. As I was originally excited by his signing, I am disappointed that Trotter didn't work out here.
I like Barrow and think he will fit into Williams D better than Trotter would. It just a shame that the whole Trotter/Barrow thing is causing such a huge cap hit for a position of less importance than good pass-rushing DE. This is an area where we undoubtedly are paying premium cap price for a less than premium position.
