Andeson done JACK SQUAT since 2006... so yes a player with 47 sacks,,, 2 10+ sacks seasons and even 5.5 sacks last year IS BETTER than anderson..

At least he showed up and played hard. Harris should've been cut instead IMO

the why was he consistently favored over Alex Brown? Then why throw over a million bucks on the bum when we could have saved that money to make a better move?

With their track record? Most likely not.

Angelo is still proving to be a completely inept GM on the offensive side. The only smart thing he did was trade for Cutler. But he is too stupid to put a decent line in front of him.

He is like the reverse of Matt Millen. Millen couldn't draft defense, but knew offensive line and receivers.

because alex was making $5.5 million/yr and with peppers $12 mill+, from a cap( and for this year let's say budget) standpoint made alot more sense to save the $5.5 mill and let izzy/anderson probably do as well for 1/5 the cost..

And ill also add with peppers being moved around and alex only playing the rigth side also made sense to cut him

what track record? the one that got us cutler? the one that got us peppers? the one that did trades for Ogun/tj? or the one that did a trade to get harris out and then back? : )
