The Giants won because of Justin Tuck, Osi Umenyiora and Micheal Strahan. Jesus Christ, I am tired of casual football fans that only want to acquire college kids who have never played a down in the NFL. I don't care if you have the 1st overall pick....he's not guaranteed to do Sh*t. Skins fans are largely paranoid and myopic because of some bad deals that happened a decade ago. A dominant DT can improve your entire D-you don't need elite corners that have to cover all day if your D line is constantly in the face of the QB. This would be worth a lot of $$ to me.

instead of answering one of 3 or 4 issues and calling anyone that doesn't agree with you an idiot, why not try to be a least a little bit more constructive, instead of beating up strawmen. If defense wins championships, what happened to the titans? or the ravens post dilfer? It's hard to win without a good defense, but there's a bit more to it than that, or else new england and indy wouldn't waste so much money on a quarterback.
is he going to help us win a superbowl in 2009? is danny really going to give him six years and 100mill? can we be competitive that way? no concerns about giving that much money to a guy that has character concerns and the titans and his ex-defensive coordinator don't seem super-eager to go after?
I think he'd be a good addition myself, but I don't think AH by himself is going to push us from average to amazing, and his contract and the way the skins work the cap doesn't really seem to work logically... I mean, if we hit on 6 or 7 draft picks and cheap FAs (to replace the guys we'd dump and the weak spots on the roster), but i don't really see it happening.
