And you're right... I'm assuming this move has a lot to do with their faith in Butler. Since I wasn't on this board last August/September, there is no history of me being bewildered that they kept Studdard and Salaam around at the expense of what I thought appeared to be much better players- cetainly players with more potential and a better fit of the pure ZBS. I'm simply encouraged to see that the organization has raised their expectations. My problem with the team keeping Salaam is that they knew exactly what level of play he would give them- and, IMO, that level is unsatisfactory for a team attempting to win... Meanwhile, they exposed Frye to the P.S. That, I think, was a big mistake and I'm elated that they aren't exposing Butler to the market in order to keep Salaam this year.
First I would be really excited about our OL if we were to draft Oher. That would be sweet. Second I agree about Fry. I guess the coaches seen something we werent privy to. I sure thought he would turn out to be a quality backup at worst.
