I can't wait to watch ARE and Moss run circles around him.

I have gotten the same read as you on Hamlin. A big hitter, who likes to lay the wood.
it is a one year deal so i don't know if that means that Dallas still has faith in their young FS Watkins, or if they think that they have a chance at Reggie Nelson at #22 in the draft.
Watkins started to come around after his benching last year, or seemed to.
I don't like the signing. We still don't have a Defensive QB like we did when Darren Woodson was back there. (It is no coincidence that Roy Williams had his best years while playing with Woody, who would constantly tell him where to line up)
(The Redskins had a Safety who used to tell ST where to line up, that you lost in FA, right?)
So really I think we are still looking for a FS in the draft. I don't know what Hamlins signing bonus was, but it is only a 1 year deal.
