Detailed Midseason Breakdown of Dave Caldwell's Major Moves

#86

Quote:That's got to be the weakest comeback I've ever seen. We signed both players to play the same defensive tackle position.  The only reason you're not using Marks as the comparison is because it would completely defeat the point of your epic little whine fest. 

 

And for your information, Knighton signed a 2 year contract with the Broncos worth $4.5 million.  Marks signed a 1 year deal worth 1/3 of that.  Marks has more tackles, a forced fumble, and the 2 sacks. 

 

Miller signed a 2 year contract that's comparable to what Knighton signed with Denver, and the only difference is 2 sacks. 

 

Neither Miller nor Knighton are setting the league on fire with their play, but somehow you think we got the short end of the deal when statistically, it's pretty much a wash.  You're trying to portray this like there's some huge difference here, and that's not the case.  This is what you've had to resort to in order to whine. 
How is it a weak comeback? I like the Marks signing, and plus Marks was signed to be the pass rushing defensive tackle (the position Alualu vacated when he moved to DE) and Miller was signed to be the gap filling run stopper (what Knighton was before he left). I have never said anything about Marks negatively, because I like the signing and he very easily could have worked out next to Knighton, and our DTs would have been better than they are now. Miller is the one I am comparing to, for all the reasons I stated above. I am not sure how you don't see that. You just keep defending your original point when I have contradicted it several times in several different ways. Get over it.
