Not only can Spencer get after the passer, but he had 93 tackles drom a DE spot and 26.5 of those were tackles for a loss.

Combine this with Ware and proven commodity defensive coach in Phillips who's staple is bringing pressure, Im licking my chops.

The best line I saw was a reaction from an Eagles fan

"We just made a trade with hated rival Dallas and allowed them to draft a guy who is going to kill Kevin Kolb."

Awesome!

The only thing that pissed me off about the pick were the moron Dallas fans at the draft who were pissy that we didnt draft a corner.

WTF?

For over a decade, since Haley retird (the 1st time) all we had was a secondary that to cover all friggin day because we couldnt create a pass rush because of bozos like Dave Campo and Mike Zimmer and idiotic draft choices from Jerrah

Retards

Dallas' front 7 was pretty tight before the draft. There need is on the offensive line. If Spencer works out, great for them but that won't make them a threat to go to the Super Bowl.

Marten and Free were drafted to replace Adams next year and Columbo the following year.

This also allows a guy named Pat McQuistan, a 7th rounder from last years draft, to slide to LG and compete with Kyle Kosier.

As you may now, we resigned out PB alternate C Gurode and RT Columbo and broke the bank to sign Leonard Davis.

We got finally numbers and quality prospects

You don't really believe that Davis and a 7th rounder are the final pieces to the puzzle do you?

Larry Allen has more talent in his nutsack than Leonard Davis and you couldn't get anywhere when Allen was your guard.

I like Davis @ OG only--he's a human turnstile @ either OT spot as evidenced by his stay in AZ.

I have to admit, when we signed him (before resigning Columbo) I was deeply concerned with him @ OT going yp against Strahan, Umenyiora, Kearse, Tren Cole and even Daniels

Kosier, according to what our OL coach says, graded out as our most efficent blocker

The 7th rounder from last year provides a reminder to Kosier to continue to play @ a high level and depth as do Free and Marten

LA is a once in 25 year kinda guy.

He was a pro bowler @ 3 different OL positions, including LT in '98. before he got too involved in power lifting--he lost his agility his last 4 years while in Dallas

LA in his prime and John Hannah (IMO) were the 2 best guards in NFL history

I don't see this trade as being anything overly significant, Dallas gave up a #1 and recieved a #1 next year, along with a #2 this past draft, essentially all is equal other than an extra #2 pick, both teams were able to get thier guys, if Spencer turns out to be the real deal at DE then it's a great deal for Dallas, if he's a typical DE then it's an ok deal, I am not a big Quinn guy but if he turns out to be a top 5 to 7 QB then it's a great deal for the Browns.
