I didn't want him, wrong Josh. I will say watching the combine though, you obviously fell in love with his arm and I recall having conversations that I wish he was a bit more accurate, because it would be a no brainer; the accuracy thing scared me off. Rosen was a much safer pick, much lower ceiling; my feeling was I would be very fine with an Eli type player in Rosen rather than swinging for the fences and missing; it was just to much of a boom or bust for a franchise that has been terrible for the last 20ish years.

It's not easy, but they had a good life and the ones with us are having good lives as well. Having them definitely outweighs the pain from losing them, still is far from easy when it's time... Butters was orange and came from South Park, Token is his brother his name came from South Park as well

It's not easy. Lost my first cat 3 years ago, she was 18, lost her sister in October, she was 21 neither were easy, but they had good long lives. Up until March 1,we had a 1yr old pup and 5 cats (2-7 year olds from the same litter, 2-1.5 yr olds and a 6 month old). 28 days ago we lost my favorite little cat man Butters, he was 7. The pup brought flea into the house on Tuesday that week, we had to give the cats a topical and he looked to be in rough shape, lethargic and not eating (which isnot like him and could be a likely side effect from the frontline). Took him to the Vet Thursday and they ran some tests, found out he had an enlarged heart and the cause was not known, but it looked like it might be lymphoma, nope it was FIP (an uncurable fatal disease) he was gone Friday night. We took him to the vet and honestly put him down just before it got real bad as his body was shutting down. I'm still torn up over it. The other cats are too - going around looking for him and staying very close to us. You will know when its time. My 18 yr old had kidney disease as she aged and he had her on subcutaneous fluids, but she just wasted away until she couldn't walk and would fall over. It was time and she knew too. We spent about $3k and we got about 1 extra month out of her, but it was a selfish decision on our part. The 21 yr old had the same ending, but we ended it sooner for her and feel much better we didn't let it dragon...

I agree with your last sentence as that has been my expectation, I have thought possibly up to 7ish when I saw the Lions linked to Oliver because that seemed easily done and even leaves us enough this draft to move back into RD1. To go up that high, we still have like $30 mil in cap space, plus like high $80s to low $90s next year...hmm...yeah it might be ok to give up next year's one, this year's 9 and a third to go up. The only other risk I can think of is - if Allen ends up sucking or gets really injured, you miss on next year's QBs, not likely though
