couple tampa
It would be something you'd want to think about. We did it in Tampa a couple times. It would be something we'd entertain.
agreed common couple created found ground longer point quite
This did take a lot longer than what we had anticipated, ... We never really found that common ground. Usually, you find that common ground at some point the first couple weeks. We didn't really find anything that we agreed upon for quite some time. That created the long holdout.
couple eight guys picks prepared seven work
We had a couple guys in mind. Unfortunately it didn't work out. One went about seven or eight picks before we were prepared to take him.
couple good last players sundays training truly
I said this really the last couple years: Saturdays look like Sundays now, and that's good for football. They truly are training the players the way we want to use them on Sundays.
good partly
I'm very disappointed, partly because I know he's a good player.
competition create ends guys indictment last tight
It's not an indictment on the tight ends we have, the same guys we had last year. We want to create more competition at all positions. We just weren't able to get that done (drafting).
bought conviction everybody knew liked tim
Everybody liked John, but everyone said he was too slow. But when Tim had a conviction on a player, you knew it, and you bought into it.
leave talked
These things take time. There are always two sides, and we're working through it as we speak. We've talked about proposals, and I'll leave it at that.
agreement contract failure fair huge reach reasonable
The failure to reach an agreement on a fair and reasonable contract has been a huge disappointment.
best great last player position process sit year
I'm not going to sit here and tell you that I feel great about our quarterback situation, ... I'd be remiss to say something like that. I feel this, though, I feel we have the best player at that position playing, and that's very important. There were times last year we really didn't know that, and we had to go through a process during the season.
brand concerned fact given jerry maybe monitor
I'm probably more concerned about Jerry than anybody, just given the fact we had to monitor things with him. He did have surgery. Maybe he'll be brand new. We don't know that yet.
change direction obviously
It obviously would change our direction if we did, in fact, do that.
felt john matter player
It was a matter of another player in John St. Clair that we felt was a better player in his role,
evaluate obviously offense receiver running team unique value
That's a lot of money, but that's a unique offense. A receiver in that offense is obviously of more value than, maybe, a running back is. That's what each team has to do. They have to evaluate the positions.
