He was consistently picked on in Philly. I figured they must have thought he had the kind of physical tools they liked and they could coach him up like they've done with so many others.

Unlike our past management and that of most of the typical NFL team's that rarely admits what some would call 'failures' we just view them as an opportunity for someone else to step-up.
I'll bet we still move more personnel on and off the roster and practice squad then most of the teams.
How do you all now feel about Maxwell and Browner? A lot of complaints when they weren't resigned, but turned out to not be as good as we thought, especially Browner. Those decisions of who to sign and not sign, that's another part of the FO that doesn't get a lot of praise.

Aaron Curry for KJ,Flynn for Wilson were a couple of big boy decisions as well. It shows the size of the medicine balls in the FO both bringing in some of the guys and when they cut them.Fortunately we have an owner who apparently doesn't get too upset with eating millions of dollars in wasted bonuses /contracts etc.
Id like to be a fly on the wall in Maxwell's living room though. He was a very good complimentary 2 corner who got top money from Philly and has been getting torched by #1s all year. Should a took less Byron.
I think Shead may wind up being better and we can see Lewis clearly is better than Nowak but a couple of our FO decisions have definitely cost us games the last 2 years.

It seemed to me like the general thought was "good for Maxwell, we'll miss him but not worth that money". And for Browner it was pretty clear that Maxwell, Thurmond and Lane were all better than Browner when he was up for his deal. I know I would have been upset if they resigned him.

So that one bit us hard.
