Stills didn't like to practice but he really didn't need to.

I'm a huge fan of Art Still and think that his career was damaged a bit by being on such bad teams through most of his career. Even so, I would be willing to gamble a career like his in hopes of getting someone with a better career.

It pains me to say that, though, because I really liked him as a player.

I loved his big fumble return in the pro bowl, which is one of the more humorous plays I've ever seen, and I remember one play against the Jets on a goal-line stand where the Jets RB headed to Art's side and all of a sudden the OT just exploded backwards into the RB and knocked him down. Art had a burst that was enviable.

If Sanchez and Stafford are gone before we pick I might be willing do it.
