Probably a defensive tackle could be signed before the bucs game??

[Can we win a SB]

Defensive tackle Johnny Thomas injured his leg in the afternoon practice and left the field on a cart. The team could sign a defensive tackle before Friday's night game.

I got this from the Miami Herald, on the article that says three dolphins going under surgery.. Well at the end of the article, they siad the team may sign a defensive tackle. do you think the Dolphins will try to get that ex-redskin defensive tackle, that was a starter..I forgot his name, but is it possible if we can get him for the league minimum?? should we?

If we sign a defensive tackle before the Bucs game it will be a scrub we are getting a look at, who will most likely not make the team or even the practice squad. Our depth at Defensive Tackle is ridiculous: Chester, Bowens, Zgonina...and then you get into a bunch of pretty good backups(some of whom are listed as DEs)

No way we get Big daddy Wilkinson....Too risky...His history doesn't make him a possible alternative...Wanny doesn't ant another D.G on his hands..
Not that i disagree...He's not worth the risk..
If the Fins are going to sign a DT (one of their deepest positions) it'll be a cheaper and safer option...

I dont want big daddy anyway, he is going to be nothing but problems if he comes IMO.

This, from The Boston Globe, should tell you all you need to know about Big Daddy -

commenting on the Pats tenuous situation at DT-

"The uncertainty has led to speculation that the Pats may be considering what would seem to be a very un-Bill Belichick-like player: former first-overall selection and notorious loafer Dan ``Big Daddy'' Wilkinson. That speculation is baseless.

The Pats may not have the ideal situation at nose tackle, but they aren't desperate enough to go for a 10-year veteran who always has made big money and has long had the reputation of being an underachiever. While Wilkinson (6-foot-4, 353 pounds) certainly has the size to man the middle of the Pats' 3-4 front, it's questionable that he has the motor and toughness that the position demands"

Johnny Thomas wasn't even going to make the team anyway. I think we're set at DT.
