I am happy that we got Young back, though. He's a solid player, just needs to stay healthy.

Simoneau is a quality backup and special teamer... hopefully he won't be starting for again.

Young had a good year last season. With the market value for DT's skyrocketing, I'm happy we retained him for a reasonable price. The market is making the draft ever so more important these days.

I still like it though.

Agree 100%...he hasn't even run at full speed yet, though. Let's give him time to rehab.
