He definitely does. I was in the camp of, "Ramsey has BEEN the starter so why not give him his chance?"

Andre Dyson is a FA. I guess we just got to live with Brunell. If only some team wanted him. Not gonna happen.

Iam not nconcerned with who is a classie person or not. I want players who are able to perform at a high level and get us another Super Bowl title.

Randy Moss performs. Plaxico Burress performs. Sometimes people just have to have a certain level of class. Talent is the biggest part of it, but when one is lacking in class, that can be VERY detrimental.

If you are only concerned about the players that perform at high levels then as an owner you might be able to afford 8 players and 45 scrubbs. Football is one of two sports in the world that require a "team" effort. You need at least 44 PLAYERS on a team. A starting offense and defense. A backup offense and defense, and pray that you have enough players in between to play special teams. "So how do you get these type of players?" you might ask. You have to find the guy without the big head that realizes that he needs a team surrounding him as opposed to the guy that thinks he can do it himself, and that takes character.

Brunell Restructures, Saves 'Skins $1 million
 

Considering we have no leverage, I'd say this was a pretty decent move on Brunell's part. After trading Gardner, we'll have $5 million in cap room. That's enough to sign our draft picks, have $1 million in emergency cap room, and sign one starter.

That's all?

Re: New Signings!?!? (Brunell Restructures)
 

Hey guys lets get this straight about the incentives...
According to the article only one of the N amount of incentives is team based. That could toally be wrong since it is the kind of detail the post almost always gets wrong the first time around. Who knows he might only have the one incetive. I do think it is relatively safe to say that not all of them (if there are more) are team based but who knows. Second off the money has nothing to do with next year. The money comes THIS year in the form of a year end bonus should the incentives be met. So this does nothing to our cap next year. Next year Brunell probably still ends up a Skin based on his cap number being release prohibtive but the following year he'd save us some good dough to release. Something tells me we won't be releasing him though since Gibbs and he seem really buddy buddy and I don't see Gibbs dropping him like a hat after what he did for us this year.

PS: The post is never right the first time around on this stuff so everything could be totally wrong. It is based on what has been reported so far.
