Ah, ****.

dall-assblows · 03-23-2007, 04:51 PM

that is a goos signing for them.

Beemnseven · 03-23-2007, 04:59 PM

He's a nice signing, but I haven't lost my lunch over it or anything.

Seattle would have kept him if he was all that.

I liked Hamlin, to bad we couldn't bring him here to compete at SS.

Big C · 03-23-2007, 06:04 PM

not suprised that he went to dallas, he could have even grown up a cowboys fan, he is from arkansas i believe

Dallas brought him in to play FS. He is a SS, sounds an awful lot like an A.A. type situation, this makes them no better in coverage, just a fearsome hitting duo. Let me restate, he is better than who was there before, but he is by no means an elite FS. He can be an elite SS, but he will be torched in space. I can't wait to watch ARE and Moss run circles around him.

I have gotten the same read as you on Hamlin. A big hitter, who likes to lay the wood.

it is a one year deal so i don't know if that means that Dallas still has faith in their young FS Watkins, or if they think that they have a chance at Reggie Nelson at #22 in the draft.

Watkins started to come around after his benching last year, or seemed to.

I don't like the signing. We still don't have a Defensive QB like we did when Darren Woodson was back there. (It is no coincidence that Roy Williams had his best years while playing with Woody, who would constantly tell him where to line up)

(The Redskins had a Safety who used to tell ST where to line up, that you lost in FA, right?)

So really I think we are still looking for a FS in the draft. I don't know what Hamlins signing bonus was, but it is only a 1 year deal.

I've got to agree here. He is Roy Williams part 2. He's a great hitter, but definitely not known for pass coverage. For that reason I LIKE the signing. They need a safety who can cover sideline to sideline, not another guy to blow up RB's and WR's in the middle of the field. Also, I hope this means they won't draft Reggie Nelson. I hate seeing my Gators go to the Cowgirls.

And I haven't even talked about the incident in Seattle where he got his head smashed in by a street sign, and his assailant wound up dead four hours later.
