Holdman or Barrow?

Who would be a better signing for the team the next 2 seasons or so? I'm not sure if Holdman has expirience or the talent to play the middle lb slot, but I do know Barrow did one heck of a job last year with an under performing d-line in front of him.

I would go with barrow he's a Gibb's type player, and he would be short term and cheap because of his age, the guy has big time instinct's and I think he can still get it done.

I'm torn! I think our guy Clemons can do it without investing any more on the LB's!

[RTerps2002]

I would perfer Holdman because he has more speed

[SKINSnCANES]

Barrow wouldnt come cheap. thats why they didnt make him an offer, he wanted to much money. Holdman is a younger player that has done well. He could be more than a two year solution for us. He doesnt usuallyplay middle but Williams would take that into accoutn with his schemes

[skinsfanthru&thru]

since holdman is gone, I think I'd rather go with the scenario of signing barrow, dump mitchell, and use clifton smith as barrows backup. barrow is an upgrade over mitchell and would be a better teacher to help out smith possibly become our starter next year.

[SKINSnCANES]

I dont think Barrow would sign a deal to play in that scenerio. He probably wants his last big deal. Get mabye a four year deal and get be a starter. I cant see him being effective for more than two seasons though. If the Skins coudl get a two year deal for him that be great. Not at teh expense of getting dlinemen though.
