Ask Bill Belichic if feel good stories influence his decisions. My guess is he could care less.......I don't think he has any feelings.

At the end of the day it should always be about production and availability. Which is why it made/ makes so many ponder why Mark Brunell was kept for so long or Chase was added last year. Then you look at Rankins and you recognize he is still so young so he might turn it aorund, but he certainly isn't being kept for production. Finally, you look at the availability of someone like the Sudafed Head and it boggles the mind

Turn it around? I must be missing something here.

Of the six defensive players selected ahead of Rankins, only Bosa and Ramsey were more productive in 2017. Not to mention 2017 was Sheldon's first full season of NFL football.

When you get cut in May, the probability of coming back is slim.
