Hoecht was good as a sub DL- got shoehorned by need into the edge. It was a really poor job by them not to find a veteran replacement who could do what he does - wouldn't have cost too much. But They decided to run him back - that is the issue. and to be clear - I'm not talking a star here just a journey man OLB whose actual position that was.

Sounds great! With the limited resources they had available, who would you have recommended? What SPECIFIC player? And at what cost? What if you had to choose between Dotson and your imaginary OLB? What if you had to choose between Witherspoon and your imaginary OLB? Or what if you could add someone and still add those players? That's one too many players on the roster. Who would you cut?

Anyone can complain about a situation they don't like. A smaller group can provide realistic solutions.

Perhaps Ochaun Mathis is the solution and he's on his way. He's not the journeyman you want of course. He might be better than your imaginary player, and he might not be.
