Warren Sapp

The 2004 season was a chapter in veteran Warren Sapp's eleven-year career that he would surely erase if given the option. When the signed the 300-pound defensive lineman to a 7-year, $36.6 million deal back in 2004 they expected much more than what followed the deal. Yet, Sapp's 4 Brett Favre White jersey
struggles were conceivably the consequence of a 3-4 defensive scheme that simply had no place to accommodate Sapp. This year, with Oakland shifting their focus back to the 4-3, Sapp is showing signs of the Pro-Bowl player that he was back with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.Last year, Sapp had a career-low 2.5 sacks-along with just 32 solo tackles and zero pass deflections. Following his shift from defensive end to defensive tackle, Sapp already has 12 tackles, a sack, three pass deflections, and an interception. As well, he has been instrumental in making the the eleventh best rush defense in the NFL; despite facing running backs Corey Dillon, Priest Holmes, Larry Johnson, Brian Westbrook, and Julius Jones.With Warren Sapp's shift back "home" to defensive tackle, look 6 Super Bowl Champions jersey
for his refreshing intensity to amount to several big stands for Oakland's defense this year. In the Raiders' first win, Sapp was appropriately in the middle of one of these enormous defensive stands, as Oakland kept Dallas out of the endzone in a late fourth-quarter stand-securing a 19-13 victory over the Cowboys.Sapp is now free to run his big mouth again-as long as he keeps up this energetic play and the organization can keep finding ways to win.
