[The Goat]

I'm not surprised there's a fair bit of disagreement about Daniels/Wynn. My take is if we have the cap room it's smart to sign both i.e. as long as it doesn't preclude us from signing help at our other positions of need (OLB and OT). Daniels still brings something to the table: bad-ass run stuffer, fantastic locker room guy, experience. Last year seemed like a freak injury but obviously age is a concern, which is why we need a legit guy to rotate at the position. I believe the only guy currently on the roster who can legitimately handle LDE is Carter, not any of the young inexperienced guys. That's why we sign Wynn too. Then we draft a DE in the 3rd or 5th round... Sidbury would be intriguing. My guess is the drafted guy beats out one among the current youngsters for the final DE spot on the roster... probably Buzbee or Jackson goes because Wilson has shown some flash as a speed-rusher RDE.

... from what others have said Blache really likes Daniels, however Blache is still a professional and clearly he believes a healthy Phillip is better than Evans. I'll trust his judgment. I would also guess Blache knows we're gonna f'ing fly on defense this year, and if Zorn can make something happen on the other side of the ball it could be a special year for the Skins... so maybe he also thinks Daniels deserves to be in on this cuz the guy has given heart and soul to the franchise in good times and bad. Maybe we're seeing loyalty where it's well deserved. Or maybe i'm just being sentimental.
