Actually, I think Davison would fill Fairleys role as a run stopper. I believe that Onyamata is better against the pass. We don'tknow what we have in Zimmer but we have been successful raiding other teams practice squads.

We won't get any relief. We'll be paying him his guaranteed $14 million regardless.

By doing it this way, the cap hit for what will be his retirement will be spread out over a couple of years...

Somebody needs to explain why this known ailment wasn't explored more thoroughly before signing him...

Local Sports Show Host Eric Asher has really been pressing the question if it's not time to move on from Ochsner Sports Health...

I wish Nick the best.

My guess is they have placed him here so not to get hit with the cap in one shot this year. Sadly i doubt we see him again. Pure speculation but it will be hard to declare him fit imho.

Wish him all the best. The man has alot of life in front of him amd thats more important than football

I hope his life is good and long and that he is able to get this resolved fully.

Dizzle, guess there was something to that Tony McDaniel signing after all and it wasn't negative as much as honest. Nice job!
