We never should have traded Babin IMHO.
I hope they bring him in for a look.... |

![]() He's definitely not a permanent solution, but he's damn sure better than what we've seen throughout the preseason and 1st game. He sucks against the run, but he could still be utilized on 3rd down situations. Eh, who knows? Maybe they'll keep counting on Mario to do all the pressuring.

This is great news. I was really bummed when they traded him away. He was just starting to get in a groove & I believe he'd be the perfect compliment to Mario. Go get him Rick.

Babin was scheduled to workout with the Falcons yesterday and plans to keep the door open to other calls before making up his mind. BTW, he still lives in Houston.
Looks like the Texans worked out RB Noah Herron. He should fit in perfectly, he is still recovering (as he puts it, "on the shelf") from a hamstring injury.

![]() As for Babin , I'd take a look at him but dont expect him to be the be all end all fix the team needs opposite MW. I think he would be at best a situational player , their 3rd down guy.

Honestly, I think I'd rather have Babin on the field than Weaver....

I would definitely agree. However, let's look at the fact that, at this time, we don't seem to have anyone that fits the bill for even a half way adequate situational rusher threat opposite Mario.

Honestly, I'd rather you or myself be on the field than Weaver. Heck, maybe even my son.
