Dhani was pondering retirement due to lack of interest when the Bengals came calling. Smart and classy? Sure. "Very good" NFL MLB? I'd say no.

Teams not being interested in a player does not mean he can't be very good. How many players get cut from a team and go on to have great careers, how many players go undrafted (passed on by every team multiple times) but go on to great careers. Teams don't know it all, and at one point having a lack of suitors doesn't mean anything the player does afterward counts less. 

Dhani played here 4 years, didn't miss a game and averaged 110 tackles per year. All while making sure our defense knew their assignments and were on the same page, which is a vastly underrated skill. He made the entire defense better, and everyone was all for moving on from him because Maualuga was gonna be better and we all know how that turned out.

That said we're arguing about the difference between a player being "decent" and "very good" for a guy who retired 5 years ago
