Albert Haynesworth.

A dominant DT like this dramatically improves your entire defense. Dont think so? See Ngata in Baltimore, Williams(s) in Minn, Jenkins in NY, Stroud in Buffalo, Wilfork in New England...the list goes on.

A massive two gap tackle can free up your ends to rush the passer or push the pocket himself. This is less time your corners have to cover and also subjects the secondary to more plays on rushed, errant throws. In the run game he can play 2 gap and allow your linebackers to make more plays.
