They really like him and have spent the past couple years building him up. We about to see. But a different approach is not always a bad thing 

Eating a huge dead cap hit to start a guy who hasn't played and is replacing an All-Pro is a bad thing.

So are we keeping Gabe and resigning Incognito? Wouldn't be as bad (still bad).

I'm assuming James is starting at center.

If we keep Gabe, resign Good and/or Incognito, and sign Kyle Long maybe our OL won't be terrible.

Right now sure but right now we’re not playing games. If James turns out to be as good as they think and they’re paying him pennies. Then it will be a good thing.

But in reality we'll be paying him $15M because of Hudson's dead cap, no?

What a strange thing to do. Sometimes there are aspects to running an organisation that transcend money. As well as his all-pro play, leadership and symmetry with Carr, there is also the issue of how this will be perceived by players. And not just our players, but other players we may wish to sign. Just a terrible look all round.

Yeah will see. I certainly did not think Hudson was the one holding this team back, but lets see how this plays out
