I think it sends a wrong message to the other guys on this team, that they are willing to overpay for unproven players (Randel el, Lloyd,Carter) and overpay for veterans (arch,apparently Fletcher) and not pay their own players they draft. Dock will get paid by another team if we are not willing to give a fair deal to him. There are a lot of teams out there that will pay him if we wont.

I agree it will be a shame but until we some idea what he is asking for there is just no way of knowing who's draging this along him or our front office. I'm glad to see the resignings and would like to see us use Sellors mors around the goal line. I think that in )^ we did not use him as we did in 05 which we should have.
