PFW article-Ferguson not long term answer at NT

We are gonna need a real good Future DT because Fergi is defitnetly not the long term answer. I expect Miami to raid the Cowboys again in the offseason and take some of their defensive players.
 
You can wish for Solai but I dount he is the answer. He seems lazy and illprepared to be our starting NT just what I see although I dont see him every day in practice. I agree though ferguson as well as he has played is at best a 2 yr plug.
 
Ferguson contract was extended for another two years.... Who knows... we may win the Haynesworth sweepstakes...

This is 100 percent correct- we need to draft a blue chip NT and we need him fast so that he can learn a little from ferg. If the 2 year estimate is correct I think this is a big time priority.

We also need to get him through the draft. It seems as though it has been a pattern lately- get an OLD DT or NT and then repeat 2 years later. We need someone that will be here for 15 years.
 
I'm not saying Solail is the answer, most NT players are like offensive linemen. They thrive with their second team. I don't know if it is strength training or what, but how many really good DT/NT players did JJ and Shula let go as young guys? They were all over the league.

There was one play I noticed with Solail against the raiders. He swam past a guard and got right on top of the QB and forced an early throw. Other than that, he was invisible.

wow 15 years , hard to get a player at any position that lol. Off hand cannot think of any like that lol.
 
Terrence Cody from Alabama will be our pick if he's on the board when we draft. You have to double him for the sheer fact that he blots out the sun.
 
Cody is the pick if hes there...I keep hearing about the kid from B.c (rabji or something like that) just wondering if hes any good...Didnt get a chance to see him play...

Not with the same team, and not often. I am also thinking that would put the player right around Fergs age. Sign our blue chip NT and pay the player that performs until he is ready to retire.
 
Raji from Boston College is being compared to Vince Wilfork by... I forgot the guys name... the guy that likes to wear pink shirts on the NFL Network.
