Will T.O get a job this year ??? Or has he wore out his welcome In the NFL.

They ought to bring back the USFL so T.O. can play for a team that suits him perfect:

Which is surprising, because I think he's really toned down in recent history, or maybe I've missed something. He doesnt bother me anymore.
But his past has caught up--- it was completely wrong the way he treated McNabb. It was funny when he called Jeff Garcia ghey.

yes skymike he may have zipped it more with age but the reason i read there not bringing him back is because of his disruptive whining and he did so with some success as the bills went away from there running game during the season to try and please t.o. he was slower off the ball, was harder for him to get out of breaks which caused the play to be unsuccessful, he would try and change the route to accomodate his tardiness to the ball,then miss or drop the ball. he can still play i'm sure but in a lessor role which i think he can't swollow so he's probably done.

I think you hit it pretty square right there. He can still play. He'd be hell as a two or even a three if his ego would allow it. I'm not so sure he's done though. I kinda feel like we'll see him pop up on somebody's roster, which, as long as it isn't ours, I'll be fine with. I get a kick out of drama he brings to the league. LOL

one thing u can't overlook is the guy still has talent. He was in a bad system last season with a DII QB and still put up respectable numbers. He stays in great shape and I think he can be a 1,000 yd receiver in the right system with a good QB. The guy just wants to win. When he's winning, he's not a problem. It's the fact he's so outspoken when the team isn't doing well (until last year). So hopefully some team takes a chance on him.

i agree saintfan, he will be on someones roster this season when they come a calling. but i don't see him higher then a low end#2 high #3 reciever this year. remember hes been without a playbook this offseason, camps open up by all next week and hes still homeless. lol. and i know the man still can play if t.o. wants to.
