The Bernard Pollard pick explained...
ck_in mentioned that the pick made no sense unless the team felt like Sammy Knight only had a year left...lo and behold:

I'd rather keep Knight and ditch Wesley. Knight is a FS, besides. Unless we're going to move him to FS, which would be a stupid idea, this kind of makes sense, but kind of not.

He's salary more than doubles next year, which I didn't know prior to today.
I'll bet Knight will be cut after this season. |

Wow. It's definitely either cut or restructure.

Whoever is in charge of our cap, or negotiates the contracts has some explaining to do.

this will be Knight's 10th season. I wonder if they look at him like they looked at Maz, possible future coach material

I think this pick makes sense. Knight didn't REALLY impress me last year. He is ok, but an upgrade at the position definately doesn't hurt. |

Pollard has tremendous upside, I love the pick. He's real nasty defensive player, and god knows we could use one.
Maybe the reason DV never had a good defense in his time is that he avoided players with bad attitudes, and the lions share of good defensive players are bad attitude kind of guys. |

I don't consider Knight's contract numbers to be excessive for a starting SS.
