I'm all for bringing in Osi Umenyiora, that would be a great move.

He really isn't worth the salary he is paid with the current contract... his 2012 cap hit would be $6.26M and that does not reflect his productivity on the field. If Spags feels he can work with Ellis then fine, but I really hope they'll restructure his contract in that case, so that the cap hit would be closer to $3M.

And Cam J would have a real pass rusher to look up to!!!

You've got to admit though, it's a really good trick.
