the thing about Dupree is what do you do if you " don't " sign him. youre back to drafting another olb-de and that in and of itself is a crap shoot. you waste another first rd pick, you wait another 4 years for said draft pick to learn an overly complicated system, and wait again to be in a position that you will have to over pay him. we went down this road with worilds and Woodley. not much to show for. many of the coaching innovations in coaching and winning in the NFL have come from coaches and front offices trying to figure how to win and manage the cap. look at chiefs. steelers have one the highest payrolls of any team that didn't make playoffs so obviously we are not too good at figuring this ***** out. well sign Dupree cause we are in no position not to, most probably tag him causing bad blood again. you have to trade these guys before they become free agents or sign them. all the strife on this team has been because they haven't figured that out. mostly we need a defensive scheme that doesn't require 11 number one draft picks to be average and we are going to need an offensive scheme that can at least be 8-8 without an 100 million dollar qb. Dupree is the least of our worries. he worked hard did all that was asked of him learned a ridiculously hard defense played well both as linebacker and de so fuking pay him I say... we don't have much choice.
