Re: 2009 Free Agents
I like Kevin Burnett as our replacement for LB. He is young and a goo blitzer, just what we need. Has good size and can cover. Here is what NFL.com says about him.
Kevin Burnett, OLB, Dallas Cowboys: Although he was a backup last season, he actually saw a good deal of playing time in nickel situations and handled himself well. As the year progressed, he made his mark in Wade Phillips' defense as an effective blitzer. Burnett enters the open market in search of a starting role, something he couldn't get in Dallas. Judging by the steady improvement he showed, another team could very well be catching him on the rise. |

Re: 2009 Free Agents
Nice 44. Davis or Olshansky don't look to bad but signing Evans who is already familiar with us and is a good locker room presence is probably our best bet.

Re: 2009 Free Agents
I really like Davis, Good stats. no injuries and only 26 years old. only down side may be his height at 6-2 but Im not to worried about that.

Re: 2009 Free Agents
Davis was re-signed to a 4 year 14 million dollar deal to the falcons. Seemed like a rotation guy. Def. not an upgrade to Daniels in my opinion.

Re: 2009 Free Agents
anybody else kinda shocked that we didn't have a followup signing on the heels of JT's release. Maybe I am used to the 5am wake up deals like Friday, but I really thought once they released JT a move was imminent.

Re: 2009 Free Agents
I don't see Willis in the list of OT FAs. Is he signed somewhere and I missed it? Statistically from what I could tell he was the best guy on the market for what it's worth. Probably a legit starter at RT for many years, especially under the heal of Bugel
