Re: What is your main gripe with the proposed Briggs deal?

I chose all three, and for one simple reason: Value, specifically the lack thereof. This is a cover 2 outside linebacker whose stats benefited greatly from playing next to a perennial all-pro in Brian Urlacher and more importantly, behind a d-line that 4 or 5 times as good as ours. What's going to happen when he's asked to take on blockers on every snap because golston, salavea, daniels, wynn, carter, etc, just aren't good enough to consistently require the double team. In chicago, their D line was strong enough that the backers could really fly to the ball because the oline had their hands full blocking the DT's and DE's. That ain't happening in DC anytime soon, especially if this trade/sexual assault goes through.
