Re: Takeo Spikes -- Should we?
 

[IMG]http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/nfl-player-spikes-head.jpg[/IMG]Whenever I see a guy with a 34 inch neck breaking down physically, I start to wonder what type of "supplement" he has taken to achieve his current state. I mean, look at that neck. It actually has to taper back down into his shoulders.

Re: Takeo Spikes -- Should we?
 

We need depth, not a starter. Takeo is a starter and probably wouldn't accecpt a backup role or a small contract. Cincinnati has a bigger need than we do for a LB. I see that as a better all around situation for him.

No way in hell he goes back to Cincy. He RAN from there on the way to Buffalo.

Re: Takeo Spikes -- Should we?
 

I think Haggans is the best guy available.

Anyone know the extent of Spikes & Colvin's injuries? I know Spikes had shoulder surgery last year, but is it expected to be a slow recovery?

Both of these guys may have a couple of good years left.

That was back when Cincy really sucked. They just had a bad season last year because they had alot of injuries on defense.

Re: Takeo Spikes -- Should we?
 

Hell yes we should take him! The man logged in 139 tackles last year for the eagles! He also played along side Fletcher! With those 2 and Washington or Rocky. We have solid backups to fill in too. Blades is young and could use the veteran mentorship. He is also a kick butt defender and speedy.

I say we take him.

Re: Takeo Spikes -- Should we?
 

I like it.As long as its a short term,and low scale contract.

Re: Takeo Spikes -- Should we?
 

Has anyone heard anything about Lemar Marshall? according to redskins.com he a an available UFA. He spent several seasons with the Skins and has worked extensively with Blache. He could provide the depth we need at an affordable price.

Re: Takeo Spikes -- Should we?
 

now Lamar Marshall is someone i would be interested in bringing in. knows the system, and wouldn't command an outrageous salary
