He couldn't take Lindsay's spot?

I admit if he is not ready to retire he would add outstanding depth. If he wants to retire, then let him retire. Should Lavar choose to compete then I say let him compete. IMO he is still one of the most explosive LB's out there bad knee or not.

Just to support my opininon is the fact that most people are supportive of Shawn Springs being our most dominant CB regardless of injury. Why is LaVar any different? Lavar is younger at this point.

Because Lavar never fully recovered from the multiple knee injuries and then he blew out his achilles. Now he has a deep cut and a broken arm. Not to mention it took him 2 weeks or more to get out of the hospital.

Springs was never fully healthy but he could still check Steve Smith. I will take that all day long.

How are they similar, again?

Because when LaVar actually played at the end of 2005 he was making plays and he actually revitalized a defense that was struggling at that point in the year. Just in case you didn't remember.

So let me get this straight. At this point in their careers, you would rather have Lavar Arrington?

No, no, no, no, I am merely saying that if we had a chance to get him let him compete for a starting job. If he doesnt get the job then at least we know that he adds great depth.


Call me crazy, but I value Smoot and Rogers over Springs any day of the week. That is just my opinion though, and I know that it is not a popular one.

I completely agree with the with the Rogers, Smoot statement.
