I'm not sure it's about just getting younger. I think it's more about getting better quality players in. Our OL and DL has been hogwash for years. Younger almost naturally means healthier but as we can see it didn't help out the WR's when the team drafted Kelly.

If the dude is healthy, and can share the duties say with Bryant for a year or two since AH most likely will be gone and Kemo didn't live up to his billing then I'd say get him. Then either next yr or the yr after the team can go after a NT when there might be one worth going after. I keep hearing how this yrs draft really doesn't have a bonified NT to be worth reaching for and basically they are not NT's and would have to be converted.

But the guy isn't any good. If he was Detroit, and Cleveland would've kept him around. To me this is just more band aid football when we need surgery.

But you can't just look at it as this team needs "one surgery". It actually needs several surgeries and the doctor has to decide which ones can be held off for another day and which ones need immediate attention. It's like a client who can't afford all the surgeries at once. The doctor will pick the once that need fixed immediately and hope to resolve the rest at a later date.
