Before he signs with someone, do you want Witherspoon?
Its easy to take a position in hindsight so, as we wait for him to make a deicision, do you hope Witherspoon chooses the Rams?

Highest reward-to-cost player at that position available, that we could(should?) afford.

Re: Before he signs with someone, do you want Witherspoon?
I voted yes. I think Witherspoon could man the strong side, but if he doesn't and Haslett thinks Pisa can play there, then I'll trust in Haslett's assessment on the defense. Either way, Witherspoon would be a huge upgrade to the defense.

Re: Before he signs with someone, do you want Witherspoon?
I voted yes as well. He's a very good player. Let the coaches worry about where to put him. The Rams need more quality defenders, period.

Re: Before he signs with someone, do you want Witherspoon?
Voted no primarily because I feel that we'll be paying far more than we should for him (If some of the figures I've seen are accurate). Having said that I'm aware that he'll be an upgrade over the incumbent.
Maybe I'm just playing the humbug because I had high hopes for Claiborne last year?
We'll see.

Re: Before he signs with someone, do you want Witherspoon?
I voted yes, it would be a HUGE piece to the puzzle of Defense, and we could really use this guy, he'd be a great fit for the Rams.

He's still young and has plenty of up side. I think he will make an impact.

I just have too many reservations about bringing in a 230 pound SOLB considering how much money it's going to take.

Has anyone picked up Arrington or did he go back to the skins?

I want him to be signed just so we can get someone under 30.

Re: Before he signs with someone, do you want Witherspoon?
Will Witherspoon was offered a $13 million signing bonus from the Rams in a deal that averaged over $5 million a year.
The Rams are spending outrageous money. Witherspoon is a solid young starter, but never a Pro Bowl candidate. He's still going to visit the Saints Sunday. Somewhere, LaVar Arrington is smiling.

Re: Before he signs with someone, do you want Witherspoon?
25 y/o, proven to be a highly regarded player who makes tackles, is quick, has a great motor, heck yea I vote yes. I think he fits well with Haslett's scheme as well. Go Witherspoon and Pisa!
