I'm not surprised and I sort of expected this. My only real concern is that Demeco is there early enough to get on the same page with Bush so that he is prepared for all the changes on the defense. He's the QB for the defense and needs to be prepared. The best thing I read in the article was that Kubiak has spoken to both of them and they told the coach they could count on them.
I've got a little more patience with Demeco than Dunta right now. Dunta got a decent deal as a rookie, and turned down what was apparently a pretty good one before he was tagged. I understand the injury risk the players go through, and Dunta is very aware of that risk now...so I can see wanting to get as much as you can while you still can. He still turned down good deal though. Either way skipping some workouts is the only tool he has, so it's no surprise he's using it.
With Demeco, he's been vastly underpaid relative to other players of his caliber. I don't remember what kind of numbers the Texans threw at him, but this is his first big contract. Not saying that he's been living off Ramen noodles the last few years, but again this is the only tool he has to use so I'm not going to blame him for using it.
I just hope it doesn't hurt the team.
