If you could add one former Cane to the current roster

[mikedeep97]

Kam Kinchens because he could actually be here and with him, I think we have a top 20ish defense and would be favored to win the CFP this year

 

[CBurrr93]

Kenny Phillips

 

[ThomasM]

Jerome Brown, Warren Sapp, Vince Wilford, or Rusty Medearis.

Meh, I'll just take Ted Hendricks so we have a HOF DE/LB hybrid that causes problems for every O we face.

 

[Kempo Cane]

Give me Rusty Medaris!

 

[Rellyrell]

I love the board when we’re asked “what one…” & 10 names r given. Lol.

For me, b/c of the weakness, it’s Ed Reed. Ed was not only a ballhawk, but his leadership & IQ was next level. Having an alpha on O (Ward), & Def (Reed) will change the entire team.

 

[Da Jumbo Mutombo]

Obviously wouldn't be the best pick, but I see others naming more under the radar players.

One that never gets any mentions is Brandon Meriweather

 

[drewm3i]

Any of Antrel Rolle, Sean Taylor, Phillip Buchanon, or Kelly Jennings. We need speed and coverage skills back there. ST would help clean things up, but the corners would lock down one whole side.

 

[Ozymandias]

One of the safeties...

Ed, Jaquan, Brandon...while I love Sean the most of all of them, he'd have been a little TOO physical. Wouldn't like him getting ejected **** near every game.

Let's pick one...Ed

 

[Ohio Storm]

I think we can all agree that we NEED defensive help, so how about we do it this way . . . one player for each level of defense. Give me Jerome Brown DL, Ray Lewis LB, and Sean Taylor DB.

 

[StPeteCane]

2-0 E Reed boyyyyy

 

[Empirical Cane]

JIMMY MURPHY.

Close thread.

 

[Trav]

Some of you maniacs aren't picking a safety or corner?

Anyway the obvious answer is Ed Reed, all day every day.

 

[CanesFan93]

Why not go with a wildcard Kamikazee at LB - Eddie Johnson....

You stole my answer. I started following the team during the Shannon era so I missed all of the GOATs but I'd imagine EJ would have been in those same conversations had he stayed in school.
