Birthdate
Bell - 7/02/1980
Hartwell - 5/27/1978
Claiborne - 7/26/1978

Only 2 years separates Bell and Claiborne, and Hartwell is actually older than Claiborne.

Stats over the past 4 years
Bell - 47 games, 240 tackles, 18 sacks, 1 int., 6 pass def., 2 FF
Hartwell - 64 games, 337 tackles, 3 sacks, 1 int., 7 pass def., 4 FF
Claiborne - 56 games, 355 tackles, 12.5 sacks, 4 int., 18 pass def., 3 FF

Avg. annual salary for Coakley and Claiborne combined = $6.6 million
Avg. annual salary for Pierce = $6.5 million
-and Pierce is supposed to be the cheapest of the big 3 (Pierce, Bell, Hartwell)

I'd say we did pretty good.
That about sums it up. Nice summary, bison.
