Other teams cuts - and the obvious should we get them question.

Bring in young studs, play them and in a few years most of them should shine. We will not be SB bound til 2012 at the earliest, so why bring in an older guy that won't be around then, when you can groom a young WR that will peak at the right time?

Oh, bring in young studs, why didn't I think of that? Of course there's a hope that works out (ex. Kelly, Thomas) but when it doesn't then you need to supplement to help you win games. Bringing in Housh on a 2 year deal wouldn't have any negative impact on the teams fortunes.
