I didn't feel like we were going to keep up our end of the bargain of playing time that we had communicated to him. I didn't feel like we could and still put the best team on the field.

I don't think he showed us the true Jason Dubois when we got him. I'd like to think this is the real guy, but the truth is he's probably somewhere in between.

I doubt that Brandon will clear waivers, but it's not impossible.
|
I feel good about our 25-man roster. And also about the next 10, which is also important.

I feel ownership will allow us to make a very competitive offer, ... Will we pay more and offer more years than we're comfortable with? Yes.

|
I know I've got attractive players. We are also at an advantageous position to acquire a player off the waiver wire because teams lower in the pack than us are not going to put a claim in.
|
I know we were certainly among the finalists. But, dollar-wise, we offered above what he signed for.

I love his approach to hit. He's short to the ball, plays hard and fits in very well with our team and our culture.
