Detroit makes a lot of sense given his relationship with Rod Marinelli. Of course the first thing I thought when I heard he was released was "maybe the Skins can get him" ... but, after some reflection, I think that might be a bad thing in the long term (i.e. after this season). Of course he won't sign for the vet min, that is crazy, so how would signing Rice affect the Skins ability to sign their own guys (esp. Cooley)? Also, the Bucs apparently released him because he failed a physical and has not recovered from the shoulder injury that limited him to only 2 sacks last year. Do the Skins really want that backage? I'd say we'd be better off to just let him go to Detroit and Chris Samuels can just be happy that Simeon won't terrorize him as he has so many times in the past when we have played the Bucs.
