    i think toussaint has played well when called upon. he's not a KR but we have other guys that can and should be doing that. :cool:

    Despite the other guys they have in house I still think they will be reluctant to walk away from high draft pick guys who have shown solid upside and have in system experience. Remember they kept Sylvester Stevenson on the roster for what 4 years and he showed very little upside beyond special teams and Ross Vetrone who is a special teams demon but never really sees any playing time beyond that is constantly released, resigned, released, resigned and so on. They will make Wheaton and Jarvis Jones offers but won't get into a bidding war for them. If they choose to go elsewhere that will be their choice but the team will give them an offer.

    How is Nix stealing money?


    For that matter, are people really devaluing a long snapper that much?

    It is a common belief on the board that long snappers are a dime a dozen and that the million dollars spent on resigning Warren could be better spent elsewhere. It's a wrong belief but still it's out there like the wasted roster spot myth.

    even though retkofsky did the job two different years and through a super bowl without missing a beat. most didn't even notice. i like warren though. he still gets down to help on tackles but not like he used to. he's still good at what he does. :cool:

    I know the OP mentioned the tweet by Boswell, but it was finally announced yesterday. It was a 1 year exclusive rights contract.
