A good dose of reality for TO will be good for him. It is not a insult, it is reality that the NFL teams are not interested in him for what he is asking for in salary.
On NFL network last night they were talking about a good possibility the door of opportunity in the NFL for TO might be closing or is now closed. I hear he is balking at playing for the NFL minimum. He still has a huge ego where $850k is chump change for him and he will not play for that. Rosenhaus and TO have to gamble on taking what is offered now, or wait until a team suffers an injury and is desperate and might pay more.
On the topic of the Galloway signing. Yes he is old, but the guy is still fast. He fits the mold of the smaller speed receiver that McNabb has had success with the Eagles.
I am not so convinced that Thomas and Kelly are sure things to make on this team. Yes they have skills but they are serious underachievers. The signing of so many receivers is sending a message we are not standing by waiting for these guys to blossom. Their time to make it or show they belong is running out. We cannot continue to waste roster spots for guys that are not producing.
