It seems to me that to have a hope we'd have to do serious cutting, not just cosmetic cutting, elsewhere. We'd have to give up big names, not just someone like Thrash.

We have to get him[Hill signed] this would be big for us. Now yes the cap is full but next year looks to be not a cap year right? So back load it with a big amount coming next season. The numbers can be moved around to get him in if Danny wants him. But it looks like Vinny is happy with the LB's he has so I don't think we will get Hill. Tell you something Hill has way more up side then J.Taylor had and we broke this years draft for him. Hill may cost us some of Dannys S money but Hill is better then most of our LB on the roster now[Fletcher and Mcintosh is really all we have]. I sure love to see Hill[6-1 235], Fletcher[5-10 245] and Mcintosh[6-2 233] as our LB's! I guess I can dream!
