IIRC, he re-signed one of our kickers for just way too much money. I want to say its Colquitt and I love the guy but you have to look at positional value there. The difference between a top 5 punter and an average one we could pick up for 1/8 the cost is just not big enough.

Then he signed Dwayne Bowe to top 5 WR money. We're not paying the guy for what he's done in the past but what he'll do in the future and, at 30 years old, he's likely barely worth top 15 money at this point.

I don't consider those contracts exorbitant, they aren't budget busters. You can argue Daniel...but how soon we forget not having a backup quarterback (2012).

I thought Pioli signed Colquitt....


Bowe is a bad contract, but he had us over the kitchen table....and he is still by far our best receiver.


I don't like losing talent...I just know you can't be precious with any player in the NFL. We'll be able to judge Dorsey via his drafts, if you don't have young guys able to step up.... you're dead and so will Dorsey/Reid.
