I'm not opposed to exploring alternatives but wouldn't we just end up replacing one overpaid player with another overpaid player and have some more dead cap?
It is possible, just stating my opinion. The tackling by Kirkpatrick has been embarrassing to say the least. I want Corners that
can tackle and cover, Dre doesn't do either great or even that good. I don't find Dre to be a terrible player, he tries hard but
that isn't enough for what he gets paid IMO.
Agreed on the contract that it was not a good one and Marv handled the Will Jax/Peerman situation wrong.
