Alright, I have a slightly different statline but none too major.

P. Williams: 16G, 64 Tackles, 2 sacks, 3 PD's
Docket: 16G, 58 Tackles, 9 sacks, 2 FF

Williams has slightly more tackles and creates chaos through pass deflections. Docket has more sacks, and forces fumbles.
You have to consider Pat Williams anchors the best RUN DEFENSE in the NFL. HE, along with Kevin Williams, is the one of the major reasons why the Vikes are allowing the fewest total rush yards in the NFL. They only allow a mere 74 yds a game. Result: Vikings #1 total rank RUN D.
Docket and the cardinals: Not too bad at #9, but can't beat the Vikes.
Pat Williams creates more of a presence as he is a great run stuffer.

Cromartie: 44 Tackles,10 INTS's, 1 TD, 2 def TD, 18 PDs
Trufant: 85 Tackles, 7 INT's, 1 TD, 15 PDs

Trufant definitely had more tackles, BUT you gotta take into consideration that Cromartie missed a few games last season yet has made the most out of chances. QB's are definitely thinking twice before throwing in his direction as he hes become a pickoff artist.

AC had Jammer?
QJ had 61 tot Tackles. Not much more of a help than Jenning's 55 Tackles who's helped Trufant.

Forfeit?
BTW, Cromartie started ONLY 8 games LY, substituted on a few. 44 T's and 10 int's for half a season is impressive.Give him a full season..he'll do better than Trufant.

AK has 2 more tackles(64 to PK's 62), but after that he doesn't do much more.He lacks posting the stats in other def. aspects of the game.
PK contributes more through other facets of the game. A more solid all around DE. Here's proof that he's a better playmaker than AK:

PK: 2.5 more sacks(14.5 to 12)
PK: 1 more INT.
PK: 5 FF's, AK only 1 FF.
PK has 2 PD's, AK has 0.
PK is part of a slightly better rush D.

AK just solely did tackles and sacks, hmm..all if not most DE's can do that.
Kerney is more multi dimensional. No doubt,he did much more.
Not only can he help stuff the run, but in the process creates game changing plays such as forcing fumbles and PD's.

A lot of times, players are defined by how well they perform in the clutch.
Here are stats on KEY 3rd down situations LY.

PK on 3rd Down: 15 T's, 7.5 sacks, 1 Int, 1 FF,1 PD
AK on 3rd Down: 11 T's, 6 sacks

Now,who do you think rises to the occasion when it matters most? I would say Kerney, he's more effective in the clutch.
