I meant this year.

Probably the best example in the league of why sacks are overrated.

I believe we are short on DEs right now?

Definitely worth kicking the tires, especially with Cunningham's suspension.

No. Whomever picks him up would have to pay the remaining 1.64 mil of his salary. And he does have to pass through waivers (all according to twitter)

You may argue he isn't worth the contract he signed, but he's a good pass rusher. He isn't elite or anything, but as a situational guy he'd be a great fit for us. I see no reason why he couldn't be a better version of Mark Anderson, and that'd be pretty valuable.
and like this.

Surely someone will claim him.

So... do I have this right, guys with 4 years of service are free agents when waived, unless it is after the trade deadline, in which case they are also subject to waiver claims?

This must be the case, since when Branch was cut he could have been claimed on waivers, but wasn't.

He'd be 0.5 sacks off the Patriots team lead, despite the fact that his playing time has been cut into by Graham. I don't expect him to clear waivers, but please explain to me how he wouldn't be an upgrade over Cunningham.

I don't see Cunningham and Babin as analogous players.

Now Trevor Scott? Yeah, sure.
