There is no more gamble with Mathews than with anyone else available with the fifteen. Too short corners....tweener cb-safteys, dupicate Dt's whom we already have on the roster.

We've seen A.Smith and M.Jenkins start and play exceptionally well for several years now. That's a lot less risk than Mathews 1 year as a starter where he may have overachieved to rack up an eye popping 56 tackles in 13 games against a bunch of guys who will never play a down in the NFL.
The guy everybody wants to replace had 66 tackles in 8 games against NFL talent.

4.7 can run with 4.2?

I think he gives us a shot at an additional fifteen turnovers in '09

Is that you Bruce?
