But, we didn't give away a draft pick! Get VC on the line pronto!
We could use DL help and Al Haynesworth is free. We should offer him $41 mil.

Based on the ARod situation....seems like a bargain
barnett led the bills in tackles last year i think.... not a bad signing at all IMO

I really like the Nick Barnett signing. I know he is over 30, but he and Riley could be our ILBs for the next few years once Fletcher leaves until the Skins draft a younger guy. I am worried that time is going to catch up with Fletcher this year and he will miss some games with little nicks here and there. The knock on Barnett is that he can't cover but is a great run stopper. Fletcher can't really cover either, so there may not be much of a downgrade if Barnett has to play some.
I dont think Fletch misses time due to injury... the guy is a freak of nature, if his play slips tho, we could see more of barnett than we are thinking now..

Like the Barnett signing. Good stopgap/backup. As others said, he may by us a year or two after London to develop a long-term replaceement.

i dont understand why barnett was available and was left sitting on the shelf in the bargain aisle.
admittedly i havent followed the NFl as much over the past 2 years but i thought barnett and matthews were going to be a LB duo for the pack for years to come . . maybe the rodgers signing really crunched their cap space .. but to be able to take a flyer on a nick barnett and see what he can contribute is a very nice luxury imo.
im just worried why no other team picked him up earlier.
