Updated: Jaguars Claim Jason Babin

[CultBrennan59]

Poor babin, now he's a jag. We can stop debating if he's gonna be good here or not.

I am shocked that a team with a 4-3 D picked him up. :confused-

Good read on him, and they actually suggest the skins. He is what we need right now, but not long term. Plus some motivation for contract again, and he gets to face the eagles again also.

Pigskin report suggested the Skins too. Amazing that we run a hybrid D like the Steelers and some people think there is no way he would have fit our D. Like any team that typically runs a 3:4 laughed at the idea of signing him. Its just not that simple.
Edit: also amazing that some people who are laughing at the thought of signing Babin have not noticed we run a 4:3 sometimes??

It all made sense but this writer also makes sense.

Jason Babin: Why the Washington Redskins Should Take a Chance on Ex-Eagle | Bleacher Report

Babin was picked up by the Texans to play in the 3-4 and failed, then got picked up by the Eagles, played well and got double digit sacks each year, then got cut and picked up by the Chiefs (I think) and cut again, then the Eagles bring him back and he got hurt last yr and only has single digit sacks this yr. A fan pointed out on the Junkies that Babin is a one trick pony and is not trainable and basically was told to just ... go after the QB. Plus the Eagles ran a 4-3 defense.

BUT.... Haslett has been implimenting more 4-3 to our scheme and it seemed to work better against the Eagles and Cowboys. I think if Babin clears waivers and we can get him on the cheap, then I could see picking him up for 3rd downs when utilizing the 4-3 scheme to rush the QB while keeping the LB's back to stop the run and passes to TE's. This way teams would have to adjust their protection towards him and that would give Kerrigan a better chance at the QB.

But we are a 3:4 team - dont you know that - this is crazy talk? 4-3 mixed into a game and needing a pass rushing end to get to the QB? - Crazy talk I tell you! / Sarcasm meter turned way up.

When they released Babin I thought he said he wanted to sign/play with/for a contender.

Doesn't matter if a team claims him

[SmootSmack]

The Redskins did put a claim in, by the way. Don't know who else did

Atleast he went to Jacksonville. Better than an NFC team we are fighting for a playoff spot. Not that he is a hall of famer but he could have made a difference and probably would have played more inspired out of spite for getting released by the Iggles
