      He might come back. I expect them to go DT in the first round either way.

        I want to read Derek Barnett released.
        500 internet fights, that's the number I figured when I first joined igglephans. 500 internet fights and you could consider yourself a legitimate internet-tough guy. You need them for experience, to develop leather skin. So I got started. Of course along the way you stop thinking about being tough and all that. It stops being the point. You get past the silliness of it all. But then...after...you realize that's what you are.

            Not trying to be argumentative or a Debbie Downer at all but I do not see anyway in hell he comes back. He was clearly displeased with his role in the defense last year and was kinda vocal about it. He had a down year because of it (by his standards) and someone is going to throw massive money at him. He's still got a few great years left in him I suspect he would like to try and win a title and not be a part of a rebuild / retool. That and not really liking the defensive scheme (and already walking away with a huge payday for being cut) means there is a very low chance he comes back.

            Edit to add: Also want to echo what 3rd an inches said, please God do not sign Barnett fuck no.

              If a team wants to throw Cox massive money, they can go right ahead. He was on the decline before Gannon came around. I don't think any team is foolish enough to think he'll regain his 2018 form. We'll see.

                This...I love Fletch, but he has been going downhill since the SB year.

                  A good GM would have traded him for something before he got to this point. It's not like this team was contending for anything the last couple of years.

                    Not trying to nitpick here but he was first-team All-Pro the year after the SB. Still great in 2019. Realistically though his 2021 performance was probably partially scheme, partially age. Would be nice to have him back but I understand why he was cut.

                      I'll miss the adolescent chuckles I'd always have after hearing Merrill Reese making an indiscriminant comment ie. "That Cox sack was huge". or "Great gap penetration by Cox" that this adolescent-humor dude would find funny.

                        Welp already out there that they have a deal in place to bring him back on a 1 year deal. That being said, same was said about Randy Gregory so let's see. I think he still has some shit left in the tank. If they aren't a contender, he is gone at the trade deadline I would assume.
