Obviously a pick lower than a third would be better, but I think I would pull the trigger on this one with a third, but with conditions.
1. It is a short term contract - preferably 2 years, but would consider three.
2. It is structured such that we don't take a shot to the shorts cap wise if it doesn't workout and we have to cut him.
3. He make some sort of personal comitment to do at least 2 years if he is able to play. I know that has no force of law, but I would just like to hear that he will give it his best for 2 years. This is the thing that actually would worry me the most. I think he may allready have mentally left the game of football.
