So if we assume the Skins were offering him ~$2M/yr (almost 2.5x what he made last year), and he had his chance to start, why would he relocate 3000 miles to play for a worse defense?

maybe he was guaranteed to start there?

anyways thought that he was going to decide friday, maybe it was by friday

either way, some people made this guy out to be an awesome player, he's replaceable, just up to us to do it
