Sounds like he'll fit right perfectly in the Packers defense. ;)

What happened in 2009 when he got 6.5 of em? Anything different?

Fluke. That will probably be the highlight of his career. Lawson is just terrible at rushing the passer. Terrible.

Asked if he had an update on negotiations with Alex Smith, #49ers Jed York was silent as he walked to his car. Not even a "no comment."

If he doesn't sign with SF where Alex Smith go? the browns don't want him.

He's a sure tackler which is what Detroit needs at MLB in our wide 9.

Demco Ryans to Da Iggles.

No way? He was a FA?

Traded. Makes a ton of sense for them.

Trade for a draft pick per Jay Glazer.

mightytitan9 03-20-2012 06:12 PM

LOL at the Texans, scrapping their team after one good season

Matthew Jones 03-20-2012 06:13 PM

Whoah! DeMeco Ryans for a mid-rounder!? One of my biggest draft man-crushes ever.

yep, that would be his one-trick. If you can look by the terrible coverage, blown assignments, and inability to make plays behind the line of scrimmage.... then he is the perfect linebacker.


I'm sorry Detroit fans, I really do like your team (KVB, Suh, Stafford, Delmas <3). I just have a personall vandetta against Tulloch.

Ness 03-20-2012 06:15 PM

What the hell Houston.

I wish my name was Kamerion, but that's another story.

I've asked that question myself, but I really think Babin just wanted to follow Wash.

And I don't think the Titans ever really intended to sign Jones, he doesn't fit the scheme. He wasn't a good DE for us, and we've already got the pass rushing DTs in Casey and Klug, we need the big NT next to them

b316 03-20-2012 06:16 PM

He wasn't a great fit for the 3-4, but man, only for a mid rounder. Did he have an injury history?

Ness 03-20-2012 06:16 PM

LOL Texans board is pissed.

DoughBoy 03-20-2012 06:17 PM

meh, Demeco is a little overrated. Brian Cushing was the real force.

asdf1223 03-20-2012 06:19 PM

Its a decent deal really. He tore his achilles last year and was not even close to the same guy before. Its a good flyer for the Eagles and a decent way for the Texans to clear salary.

He missed 10 games, didn't play real well in the new scheme last year. Still a good LBer though

I think they'll miss his leadership

He could always pull a Carson Palmer and retire.

I actually thought this was a strong possibility.

keylime_5 03-20-2012 06:26 PM

Ryans was always better in the 4-3. He didn't fit in Phillips' system as much. He is a perfect guy for the Eagles. One of the best MIKES in the game so they can slide Brian Rolle outside to WILL and use Chaney at SAM to cover tight ends. The Eagles can focus on bringing in DT and OL help with their top picks now - something they badly needed to do anyways.

Ness 03-20-2012 06:27 PM

Texans might come out on top. Hopefully it's at least a 4th round pick.
