I have memories of letting Joseph walk and then replacing him by spending more money on Jason Allen and Nate Clements. Granted there are several other reasons to let Glenn go, but being able to replace him with someone we get via free agency isn't one of them.
If anything, I'm keeping him thru training camp to at least make sure we have a suitable replacement.
Yeah, Mike Brown's idea of a suitable replacement is the first semi-warm body he uncovers in an NFL dumpster. Nate Clements wasn't bad, but he was at the tail end of his career and certainly didn't have JJoe's speed. Bobby Hart was little more than a marginal backup player given a 3 year deal to start.
Mike Brown would rather overpay a player he's comfortable with than bring in a key guy who's going to make the team better. We've seen it time and time again.
