He's younger, thus there is hope he can continue to improve and possibly be a player worth signing long term, but right now he's no Michael Bennett. But I personally question if Michael Bennett will be Michael Bennett once he cashes in.

Selvie more or less disappeared after getting 5 sacks in the 1st 7 weeks. Idk, maybe it was because of the increased work load for the 1st time, but I need to see much more from him before I make a claim like that.

umm Bennett played in 569, and Selvie played in 662. How does that come out to 144?

Well once Wares production went south where do you think they concentrated on? the right side? Im not saying that Selvie is anything special, but seeing people swoon over Bennett and his production equals Selvies. No better no worse.

Seattle reminds me of the 90'scowboys on defense. They have so many pass rushers they are unstoppable.

Just like the Giants had. We need pass rushers.

Nobody was game planning around or double teaming George Selvie, nor will anyone ever.

I can't be the only one who sees Greg Ellis when I watch George Selvie.

Even down to the finger tape.

But it wasn't 1 1/2 games was it? More like less snaps (rest) over a 16 game season which should actually help them. Seahawks had a very good rotation similar to the 90s Cowboys. Something I would like to see the Cowboys employ-again.

I want them both. And two more.

Fair argument, but that wasn't the original point.

Maybe the better comparison is Ware.

629 plays. 40 Tackles, 6 sacks, 0 FF, 1 int


No one will argue that more and better players is a negative.

Let's see how Bennett plays after he gets his big payday. Might continue to put up good numbers. Might not. Has a much better defense around him that Selvie had.
