How much are they really going to miss him? Aside from less than 20% of their 28th ranked sack count, doesn't sound like that much with 15 tackles in 16 games. Suh suspended and Fairly injuring his knee Sunday puts Detroit in a much deeper hole. Especially with Dallas's offensive line.

He has just 15 total tackles in 16 games this year but did record five sacks. Melton's presence will be missed on a defense that ranks 28th in the league with 28 team sacks.

Stats don't always tell the complete story. He was one fifth of their sack production, but what does that really mean?

He could also be the straw that breaks dallas defenSive back.

Melton has looked good for them in the games that I have seen. I've kept a closer eye on him since we were linked with him in FA.

I know it's my relatively untrained eye but I think he would have beasted for us with our current defensive group.
