I know the defensive line is a big strength of this team, but I'm somewhat surprised we haven't gone after Robaire Smith. I'm assuming we're going to lose either Wilfork or Warren to free agency sooner or later -- probably Warren -- and behind our big three we really only have Jarvis Green and Mike Wright, who are good players but wouldn't inspire confidence if there was a long-term injury to one of the starters. Smith is a big 3-4 end and a tremendous run-stuffer, and if I'm not mistaken BB has said some nice things about him in the past. I remember games against the Titans where we ran at Haynesworth to stay away from Smith...
Of course he may want starter money, and the team might just be banking on landing a cheap d-tackle in the draft. But if more time passes and his price tag goes down even more, I'll be surprised if we don't take a pass at him. Any thoughts as to why he's not being brought it?
