Re: Free-Agency Dreaming...

The problem is most people have no clue who are the big impact DT. They have the job of doing the dirty work and getting no credit. They plug up the middle taking on 2 or 3 O Lineman at a time and let the DE's, LB's, and secondary make the tackles and sacks.

I watch as much football as I possibly can on Sunday and could not tell you who the best DT in the league are? Sure I can throw out some names I've heard over and over again such as Sapp (past his prime). But think about it how many more DT do we actually know outside of the Rams?

Defensive Ends get the glory and it's very easy to fall short and seek out these guys but if you really want to make an impact in the running game you better start on the line in the middle.......

Just my 2 cents
