I get what you're saying. I think it would be a shame for Hatcher to come here only to see his best friend cut.

On the other hand, pro football is a business and Bowen has underachieved based on the value of his contract. Unfortunately, he has been a non-factor in rushing the passer. So now, if he wants to be on the team with his best friend, it's up to him take a pay cut.

Sentimental reasons aside, I don't know why several posters have said they want him back. He's been no better than average since he's been with the Redskins.
