Jason Hatcher to visit Hawks

[kearly]

6'6" 299 lbs. Very similar numbers to McDaniel. I guess JS has really taken to tall DTs.

If Jason Hatcher is visiting 5 other teams, then no way he's not looking to cash in. Come on people.

If we want him the other 4 are irrelevant. Let's just just see if that's the case before losing all hope. And if he actually realizes it also.

hatcher lined up to bennett on 3rd downs makes me drool.

Yes he had 11 sacks, but teams aren't stupid. They will look at his whole career and see that last year was an aberration. They aren't going to throw tons of money at him expecting he will continue to be a 10+ sack guy next year.

It's very likely he could be had on a prove-it deal to show teams that he can produce a lot of sacks again. Depends if he wants to chase a ring too.

Clearly, 11 sacks for DT is an abberation.

Or is it? His first year in a Monte Kiffen 4 man front (guess who Pete credits with a lot of his defensive front philosophy?) and he gets that kind of production? Makes me think Hatcher wishes he had not been in a 3-4 all those years.

It's a valid point. Typically, you don't see guys get really high sack numbers playing DE in a 3-4. 11 sacks in a contract year, with 27 career sacks bothers me, and I'm sure it botherss a lot of other GMs as well, but Hatcher playing 3 tech in a 4-3 for the first time definately has to be a factor. It wouldn't be the first time someone was played out of position.

Id be fine if we cut Clemons and Miller to save 12mil if we were able to bring in Hatcher, Allen, and Finley for eqaul money.

Hatcher looks like he's leaving without a deal.

Defensive tackle Jason Hatcher will be visiting the #Raiders today after his visit with the #Seahawks concludes, according to a source.

Not a surprise, he'll want to check out all his options.

Hatcher signed a 4-year, $27.5M deal with the Redskins.

The skins phoned in a completely absurd deal. Lmfao!

4 years 27 million for that guy is absolutely ridiculous!
