if you look at the numbers, there is no question. deal is, do we need a talented pass rusher or do we need a big, quick guy who can come in and explode through every ounce of energy he's got at the moment trying to get to the qb? i say the latter and that we've already got 2 of 'em in kalu and thompson.

There are 3 players on the team that I like, which is contrary to what most other people think. Faggins (5th string starter), Greenwood (just overpaid), and Weaver (doesn't do it for me at all).
Weaver was never advertised as a pass rusher. He is a run stopping DE that is big enough and strong enough to move inside. Weaver and the coaches have both said that he never played close to 100% last year, because he was so behind in conditioning from his two surgeries. I can belive that right now but he better come in and play like a mad man this year since he is supposed to be 100%. Although last year he had 41 tackles, which is a career high.

32 tackles, 9 assists doesn't sound like a run stopper to me. mario's 43 tackles, 16 assists with 2 forced fumbles and 1 recovery (and a TD hehehe) does though and mario did all that in between 14 sacks. but it's not the numbers that matter, it's his impact. mario can, does, and will dominate...weaver never seems to make plays...but when he did (the denver game) the whole line played out of their minds. probably not totally related but i certainly don't believe it's just coincidence.
