problem is we HAVE a pro bowl NT. Ratliff isn't a DE. How often do we need to discuss this.
Where are you going to put Rogers when you have Rat? You can't pay two players top salary at same position.
I am actually one of the few who likes Rat at NT. But the additions of Rogers and Seymour would allow the Cowboys THREE catalytic d-lineman who could be moved around to create spectacular mismatches. All 3 are strong against the run and pass rushing beasts.
Besides Rogers is not a full time player, Rat would still get plenty of reps at NT. In fact, when they go to a 46 or under 4-3, Rat and Rogers would play DT with Seymour at strongside DE and Ware at weakside DE. That lineup would wreak havoc.
Again, this is pure dreamcasting_with the upcoming uncapped year, salaries be damned. Make a run for the SB NOW, figure out if you want to pay em or let em go AFTER WINNING THE RING. My thinking is Instead of looking to shore up a weakness, I would rather muscle up a strength. Even Hamlin can look like a pro bowler behind this front 7.
