I don't know.  Maybe Shad really is blowing this.  Maybe he does have a weird allegiance to Baalke who is fighting tooth and nail to keep his job.  I'm just surprised that if the Leftwich thing was over we wouldn't have heard that.

Well said.

This is my hope too. Especially the part about vetting Wilson. If they indeed are taking what Byron said about wanting Wilson to heart, they still have to look into him instead of just taking his word (smart).

My only worry here is just the silence on all fronts which is where the pessimistic side creeps in because… well it’s the Jags.
