Now, just how do you embed the above into the Poll question?

This will probably sound hypocritical, or double standard, or something else basically wrong, but

Since we aren't bringing him in to be a staple and leader for the team, he is merely a bit player, and getting paid as such, I can live with the signing. I don't think he is going to be a go to guy, and he may not make it past training camp unless he produces on the field. So I can live with it, he isn't getting a hero's welcome, and he is allowed by the nfl to play, so I hope his signing helps the Skins. If he does mess up, than he is off the team and we say see ya to him. I don't think this will be the last person of questionable repute that Shanahan brings in, he is not cut in the same way as JG was. As long as we don't become a revolving door for the shady underside of the NFL like Cinci or Dallas, I can deal with this one.
