Foote needs to go.

I can see that but thought once healthy they came together a bit.

Foote is not a playmaker but he is a decent tackler and isnt hurt every other week so why dump him?

Wish steelers wouldve took hightower instead of decastro honestly in the draft... woodley is glass

Alec Ogeltree ILB Georgia ...
he can cover better then Timmons ... and would let Timmons Attack Attack Attack which he is a beast at doing (not bad in coverage either)

I like the outlook for Spence, just sux he missed the entire year of XP, does anybody else agree that McClendon is a beast and with more playing time he's only gonna get better. I sure hope Timmons makes the pro bowl, I know I'm gonna vote for him until my computer explodes, if Woodley could be healthy and 1/2 as good as LT, next year should be fun to watch. As for Foote I thought he had a good solid year, James Farrior he isn't, but a solid tackler and durable should be enough. I've never thought of Foote as a playmaker, he falls in the category with Clark, just solid starters that do their job.

This was a big year for Foote, but he and Timmons have been trading the lead in tackles all year long. Next year Spence will be back, I'm excited to see him play but I thought Foote played as well as we could ask for.

I know you cant blitz every play i mean id to see how it would work, just bc Timmons is strong and fast!! thats why i said outside. But the D played good this year i mean we dont need to get rid of anyone really, if we do draft its for the next man up type deal. DB's tho we could draft one and make that rookie start, but we dont really like starting Rookies on D. I dont know we just need to do something, this is the most frustrating season ive seen in a long time. i mean im only 25 but still i hate this S***!!! haha
