Quote:- You apparently weren't aware that Greg took  slightly less money to play for the Texans because he wanted a shot at the playoffs - his agent turned down better offers from the Jags.  

 

- Most of us wanted to see Daryl Smith back -  but passing on an aging LB coming off of an injury that made him miss 14 games before looking like a shell of his former self in the last two ...... perfectly understandable.

 

- Are we really concerned about losing Knighton?   I'm not.   

 

-  We got better at Cox' position for less money.  

I didn't know that about Jones.

 

Smith I can understand all the negatives about him being old and injured, but it's not like he was tremendously expensive. He would have been a bargain to have at the position playing at his level, and if he doesn't work out we cut him in a year, with hardly any drawbacks. We could have signed him and Geno and still had more than enough money to do whatever we wanted this year. I am concerned that we lost Knighton when we are paying his replacement the exact same amount he gets paid to be worse than him....

 

Dunno about better than Cox, but I will agree his move made the most sense, as he really did get overpaid by San Diego.
