In one word...no. If he had truly wanted to stay here and believed in continueing to build something with his teammates he would had stayed and not jumped ship. He pretty much bailed for money he would have gotten over a couple years instead right away if I understand all the talk about his contract. He was definitely a good player while here but didn't understand his role as the #2 cb and instead wanted #1 cb money. Springs was our unquestioned #1 cb last season so I'm cool with the stance the team made by finding out who truly wanted to wear the burgundy and gold and seemed to have made a good choice in Smoot's successor and I possibly an upgrade by as early as next season.

Plus why the heck r we dilly dallying about this right now any way? BRING ON NEW YORK!!!! BRING ON THE PLAYOFFS!!!!
