Old addage.

Players always get the first nod the year after.

So he was probably better the year before Hamlin came to the Cowboys.

Hamlin doesn't make enough plays from his spot.

Like I said. His production is down and his salary is going up.

Businesses fold in that scenario.

He's an average safety. If you want to say he's starting quality or solid I won't argue with you.

But I don't think you'll get a lot of people saying he's a lot better than average.

You don't necessarily need better at safety but this team needs, somehow, to get more turnovers. Not sure you can argue against that either.
Did you know there are only 5000 Snow Leopards in the wild now and they are confined to Central Asia? However, the effective global population (those likely to reproduce) is less than half that number.

Is he worth $5.5 mil this season?

No. What's laughable is you(r argument) just got leveled to the ground and yet you still come back disregarding statistics as well as general football knowledge; the most basic of knowledge at that.

Oh, well, BZ, what's new?

Bye, RGIII

Are you kidding? Newman made the pro bowl because of Hamlin??? Not because of a team record 13 wins? Not because of a career best 4 INTs, 3 FF and a TD?

Now I have heard it all, Ken Hamlin is just so damn good he makes pro bowlers of players around him.

What's wrong w/Keith Davis. He started alongside Ken Hamlin. Wonder why he didn't go to the pro bowl too?

Alan Ball.

Some people in the organization wanted him to keep the job even when Hamlin was healthy at the end of the season.
