I love the note on the bottom of the chart. I didn't know they counted tackling guys who didn't have the ball.

I don't remember anyone saying we should have paid Casey Hayward. I could be mistake, but it seemed similar feelings to when Davon House got his lottery check too.

Isn't Peppers are really good veteran leader on the team?

Best guess, is they meant where the ball got spotted when accounting for forward progress.

We're obviously discussing in hindsight, but that's what one does to learn lessons for the future. I didn't necessarily mind Hayward leaving, but several people complained about Peppers salary. Michael Rodney also was in favor of keeping Hayward under the "you just don't let a good young CB go." Moreover, it was just a general statement that Peppers money could undoubtedly be better spent elsewhere. Peppers is done.

I wonder if in some peoples eyes the rookie season Hayward had gave him unrealistic expectations and therefore we soured on him sooner than we should have. I thought when he was healthy he was solid in the slot. Did we get a compensatory pick for him?

I want to say this "Casey Hayward signed a 3 year, $15,300,000 contract" seems like a lot for a CB3. But, I can see the flip side of not having too many good CB's. I would rather a more punishing Defensive front than ball hawking secondary myself.
