Avril Has Little Leverage

What other 3? LoJack might be better against the run. That's it!! You're telling me Young is too? You kidding me? He's a '3rd down rush the QB' specialist. That's all, bro...lol.

Who's the 3rd guy?

I think he was referring to Babin, Johnson and the other dude..

Young makes less than a million...
 
That's the one I remember, the Babin deal. It was a steal.

because Babin is a one trick pony like Avril, he's a rusher, period. One of the reasons Philly moved up and took F. Cox and added V Curry in the 2nd

And they still have B Graham. Homeboy needs to get healthy.

They have Trent Cole, Brandon Graham, Babin, Cullen Jenkins, Mike Patterson and now Vinny Curry(to replace JuQua Parker) and Fletcher Cox. Dangerous Dline

Then why are people talking about 9m for him. Why not get Avril a Babin type deal?

Btw, you know another high profile DE that can't defend the run? Dwight Freeney, the Freak.

you said the answer in your question....high profile. Babin was on Sportsnation this week. Avril isnt even in your local newspaper.
 
If Babin were a FA this year, after the year he had last year, he'd be asking for over $10 million a year.

But didn't he just sign the deal last July? After a 13 sack season? I wonder why he didn't get a big deal. Granted he had a hell of 2011 season but he was still good before that..

One hit wonder. 4, 4, 5, 2, 0(injured), 2.5, then 12.5? You can't expect him to get the top bucks for that.

Now, backing the 12.5 sacks up with 18? Dude would get paid BIG-TIME today.

Avril, in his four years, has racked up 5, 5.5, 8.5, and 11. Much more impressive.

maybe Philly showed him the tape of guys running through his vacated spot. Avril is a notch about Babin and that is what he's worth
 
How dare you say a Western Michigan Bronco is a one hit wonder!

Onward for the brown and gold...push em back push em back....bring us fame!!!!

Over 1, over all...we wil REIGN! FIght broncos fight...fight with all your might. WESTERN WIN THIS GAAAAAAAMMEEEE!
 
Good for him. What's your point?

I think you were confused on "the other 3 guys" comment and thought I was referring ot the Lions, In turn I thought you were comparing Young to Avril as both bad against the run. My point was Young isn't asking for $8-10 Mill/yr...
a little miscommunication I believe
