Dez Injured at practice.

Dez was a perfect fit.
Without him, if Michael Thomas got injured we would have to lean on Alvin Kamara with 2nd most receptions.

Could still work out for him. Couple practices and bam. SB ring.

For Dez he's 30 going to be brutal trying to come back after an Achilles tear.
That's some unfortunate Bad Karma right there. Strangely enough I was pulling for it to work out for him.

I suppose we could bring in Marshall, but he is older and limited the more I think about it. We need to get more out of Carr and Arnold (maybe he's more of a WR anyway) and/or activate Kirkwood. Curtis Johnson should be able to get at least one of these young dudes to step up.

well then,,,, wasted money for sure. Still doesn't help with the current situation with the secondary sucking as bad as they do. But hey, we still manage to win.

He was only set to make league minimum with a load of incentives up to another $600,000. League min. is $500,000 for this year only.

Really was a great try and we didn't lose much compared to other front office blunders that still sit against dead cap money over the past 5 years or so.

I don't think Marshall can really help this team. He's 34 and hasn't lasted a full season with a team over the last couple of years. I'd rather call up Kirkwood, give him 3 or 4 games to show what he can/can't do, then sign Marshall if it's necessary.

Its week 10, we only need him to last half a season
