However, Maualuga is a favorite with the kids, team likely feels like he puts people in the seats. Too bad it's not adults wanting to watch him destroy the opposition.
Michael Johnson, they feel like they are getting good value for the money out of him. We should just be counting our blessings that Hunt is on the open market.
Adam Jones is also a tremendous value for the money at his position. NFL.com had him rated as one of the top 5 (I believe) CBs of 2016. Even though he is a piece of garbage as a person, his play on the field (aside from helping to snatch defeat from the very jaws of victory in a playoff game) is a steal. And until either WJIII emerges as the next great thing, or Dennard comes out in camp and blows everyone away, we will be stuck with Jones.
Peko is way past overdone, he should have been let go or retired a couple of years ago. Again, kids love him.
Pat Sims? Why the hell is he even still around?
That is my opinion, anyway. However, the only caveat that I would apply to this situation, is that if they draft some rookies at those positions that come to camp and absolutely blow the doors off of any of the incumbents, you might see someone cut.
If any one goes to the game to see Maualuga I want them tested for
A. Mental deficiencies
B. Drugs
C. Some relation to him
D. All the above.
