    good. I liked demps, he fits this system better than the last one and we had a glaring hole. its not perfect, and I would still draft a safety somewhere, but its not as bad now.

    I hope they are still working on an extension. Better to lock him up now in a year where not a lot of WRs are getting new contracts then waiting till next year when he has had another baller season.

    So now that Hoyer is gone, and we are 11+ mill over the cap, who could we get going into the draft? We only need 5-7 mill for the draft right? So could we get someone for real cheap? I still want Josh Brown, 1-2 years. I think he is better than Novak.

    I have a feeling this has to do with Hopkins extension. Otherwise they could have kept Hoyer till training camp.

    He's not very good at football and they have no QB. I wouldn't bet on it.

    He was very good on the Texans when they had no QB and was far more involved in Kubes' offense

    He had one pretty productive year when he was 27, he's 3o now and hasn't really been productive since then and wasn't really productive before that. I wouldn't be expecting much.

    If you can get him for less than Hoyer would you want him? I am an Ohio State fan so I'm partial, would like to hear what everyone thinks of him.
