Awesome...just what we need...another DLman
nothing wrong with signing many for "futures" contracts now, i'd bet see som olineman, cb and wr's also soon, esp with everythin needing to be done before march and end of the CBAQuote:

why? maybe no good OL that havent been signed yet, maybe the DE agent got his contract before 2-3 OL agents did.. think you are making a mountain out not even a molehillQuote:

Settle down on futures contracts, none of them will ever see the field (well, more like a lottery chance). Practice squad stuff at best,/camp fodder.
Oh, i am settled. Not upset at all...more amused then anything.Quote:
