It's not hate for Griffin. He's a good player, no doubt.

But to be in the running for the best defensive tackle in the history of the Washington Redskins? Not a chance in hell.

I'd have to go with Butz too

He's not top 4, but I've always felt Tim Johnson was underrated during his time here

MTK · 07-01-2009, 09:41 AM

For one year wonders how about Sean Gilbert and Daryl Gardener?

I was also going to mention Daryl Gardener who came from the Dolphins. He was a beast for the season we had him. He was playing for a new contract but he had some back issues. Denver signed him after the 1 monster season and he never played for them cause his back was injured again. We did do something smart by not resigning him for big money.

Butz with Hayneworth taking second

53Fan · 07-01-2009, 11:22 PM

I was thinking Haynesworth may be the closest DT we've had to Butz. Butz could do it all, including sacking the QB. If AH can have the impact Butz had, I'll be one happy camper.

I like Dave Butz and I cannot lie, other fans cannot deny...Sorry I got carried away.

...that when a DT walks in with a gigantic waste that's up in the oline's face you get SPRUNG.
Gotta love the sir mix a lot reference!

I am shocked this is even thread worthy. I would think if a poll was done here, Butz would be 80% or so. (of course you are going to have the trollers and idiots voting for others which would reduce Butz's dominance) I just don't see anyone in the same league as Butz, he's the dominant winner.

Dave Butz was a Warren Sapp and the man played forever. Truly a 'Skin Hall of Famer and with Diron Talbert a close second.

Correction: Warren Sapp was a Dave Butz. Butz was the first huge DT in football and the one to set the standard to today's DT's. When George Allen got him from the Cards it was huge.

Butz.

Diron Talbert was the Dancing Bear & when I was about 12 I loved the Over The Hill Gang. But the best D line the Skins ever had was Manley,Mann,Grant & Butz made it all happen. I remember Madden saying that nobody runs on these guys.

I couldn't have said it any better. That line was scary and unlike today's front line, opposing QBs and RBs were petrified when playing against Manley, Mann, Grant and Butz.
Maybe we get some respect this year. We'll see.
