build contingent dealt football good hand obviously team
We're going in with the hand we dealt ourselves. We said that going in and we're comfortable with it. We feel good about our football team. If we're contingent on just one player, then obviously we didn't build this team to win.
dedication doubts given good horrific injury obviously situation watch work
Given Marc's situation he had a horrific (knee) injury for really a good 2½ years, to watch his dedication and his work ethic, there were doubts he would ever play again. So getting him back and going and then obviously having to do what we did (Tuesday) was very, very tough.
build contingent football good obviously player sit team tough
If we're contingent on just one player then obviously we didn't build this team to win. So we feel real good about this football team, but it's a tough blow. I'm not going to sit here and say it isn't.
build coaches contingent good locker move obviously sit team tough
If we're contingent on just one player, then obviously we didn't build this team to win. It's a tough blow, I'm not going to sit here and say it isn't. ... We'll get through it. I feel good about our locker room, I feel good about our coaches and we're going to move forward.
brand foremost healthy jerry leading life maybe normal obviously
Maybe he'll be brand new; we don't know yet. The No. 1 thing is we want to make sure, as he does, that he's healthy and can go on leading a normal life after football. That is first and foremost with his agent, with Jerry and obviously with us.
create gives obviously starts
We wanted to create more big plays, and obviously that starts with speed, and he gives us that dimension.
change direction obviously
It obviously would change our direction if we did, in fact, do that.
bulk ends few fit gone good obviously round run second sure third tight
There probably could be two tight ends that go in the first round for sure one we know that. You're going to see probably a pretty good run in the second and obviously the third round. I think the bulk of them will be gone by then. And there will be a few if they fit with what you want scheme-wise that you may like in the fourth.
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.
jerry looking position
With Jerry potentially not being with us, we'll be looking at that position very hard.
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.
guy impressive
Probably the most impressive guy who I've interviewed.
areas experience gained game improve needs rookie
Orton's got to take another step. He needs to take the experience that he gained as a rookie and take another step. There are areas of his game that he has to improve before I feel really comfortable with him.
job period safeguard
We like what we have, but we've got to see it over a period of time. We haven't been able to do that. So my job is to safeguard the position.
