[QUOTE="DILLIGAFF, post: 273380, member: 1719"] I never said that both players need to be cut together, but the combination of the 2 players do not compliment each other well. IMO we have enough talent at the LB position right now to fill the position, the only thing Hawk brings is depth at a very high price. However I feel Johnny Jolly is very good against the run where as Hawk is average at best against the run combined with his lack of pass rushing and pass defensive skills in the 3-4 defense. When Jolly and Hawk are in together they are a liability against the pass. IMO we need another player to compliment Jolly. Hawk is just not a 3-4 LB. Other teams feel they get the same skill sets and abilities of Hawk in the 3rd rounds and lower in the draft at a fraction of the costs. I believe Chillar/Bishop/3rd rookie can fill the position next year. As far as the long run Hawk will defiantly not be around the following year unless he renegotiates his contract. Unless Hawk has a big break out year how does keeping Hawk now help this defense in the long run? [/QUOTE]
