I know he's just 1 player, ok maybe 1 1/2 players, but Haynesworth affected the whole line. Drawing double teams, he made average players (Ball, Ford, Vickerson) look so much better. With those players exposed, the Titans went from the 7th ranked defense to 28th in 1 year. Now Vanden Bosch is gone too, I know he hasn't been the same player the last couple of years, but he was still an effort player that offensive coordinators had to account for.
1st round pick Derrick Morgan is a good player. A 3-down DE and one of the safest defensive picks in the draft. But he's still just a rookie.
