I'm with you on Robinson. I posted about him last week. He isn't the pass rusher Buckner is but he is a better run stopper...and at least one round cheaper in draft picks.
Buckner is the sentimental choice but would cost more at a time when we can't be sacrificing too much in future picks. I even wonder if the owner/GM would be willing to make a deal.
Buck is still a prime pass rusher and that will always be valuable (especially at IDL).
if they're content with who they got rushing the passer inside, then I would look elsewhere. Buck was always serviceable more than good at stopping the run.
I know we should be getting West back at some point and he was pretty good last yr, I just think he was playing hurt this yr.
I'm looking down the road, and I see Kansas City and Kenneth Walker in our future. If we cannot shut down Walker, we won't beat Mahomes and KC and grab a Lombardi.
I agree Buckner is still more than serviceable against the run, and would fit the locker room perfectly.
unfortunately on a collision course with the KC right now.
