Maybe McNAir didn't want to pay the salary, and that's fine with me too. I tend to lean towards the idea that tried to rework his contract and he said no.
Deion Sanders wasn't as good against the run as Marcus Coleman... However, I think I'd take Deion at CB anyway. I know that analogy is a little ridiculous but the point is that playmaking ability and a pass rush are the primary duties for a DE. Particularly with Mario on one side, we just need a guy that can get to the QB- the other edge is set. Our run defense will improve when our DTs do.
