Did Brandon Williams even play?

They made a mistake when they chose to sign him instead of 80/20ing it with Pierce, who I think at this point you can make a solid argument for being a better, more all around player than Williams is anyway. It's going to suck when he walks for similar money while we're stuck with a slug.

Per Brian McFarland:

Probably pretty tough to get out before 2021. The two restructures have made it really hard.

Do you think it's a good investment to pay 50 million for a space eater?

And one that sits on the sideline for 50+% of defensive snaps...

Ideally no but the game is won in the trenches on both sides of the ball. That was the market for a guy like BW at the time. The numbers show that we clearly do better against the run with him on the field than we do without him off the field.

Maybe give him a $100 gift certificate to his favorite buffet for every game he makes 2+ tackles or collapses the pocket?

Pierce, on the other hand, dominated the LOS.

I thought the same thing. I thought I missed the injury report..but then I saw him out there just running into linemen like he normally does..practically invisible

I mean, we shut them out and we have people bitching out the defense? Really?

OP was just wondering and it's a fair question. BWs contract is a good example of some of the awful contracts this team has given

It absolutely wasn't the market
