Playing Hard, Playing Smart: The Case For Jamie Silva
I have been talking to people who knew him personally, who are saying we have similar body types and playing styles, Silva said. Nobody can live up to the sacrifice he made, but in football terms, the comparisons to Silva are absolutely valid. Tillman wasnt blessed with major speed or power, but set an Arizona Cardinals team-record with 224 tackles in the 2000 season. Silva does not expect to wow scouts in the speed drills, but compensates with his skills and savvy.
