Can't get caught up in the whole "he's 32 should have just kept Whit" argument. We would take Whit back in a heartbeat. I don't even care like some do on here about how much Brown would demand, not coming out of my pocket. We're not saving money to keep good players anyway. We screwed up with Whit, make up for that mistake here. I say go get him.
The Whitworth argument is that most tackles decline when they hit around 32. Whitworth didn't. He's the exception.
We may end up paying a premium for a guy that has declined a lot.
As I posted above...his pass protection got worse last year. He gave up something like 26 pressures.
