Takeo Spikes

[kentjett]

I heard that Buffalo was thinking about releasing him if they didn't get any trade offers. He had a achilles injury in 2005 and was a little slower last year. If you look at other athletes that have had the same injury, it takes a year or two to regain full strength. Vince Carter was subpar the year following his injury but stepped it up the next year. I think he will be back to his old self for the next 2-3 years and he would provide leadership. I think we should offer a fifth round draft pick and dump Thornton. He is scheduled to make 4.5 million/year over the next 2 years, not too high compared to some other LB's his age ala Porter. We need to figure out a way to get Takeo back, I would be so pumped if my wish were to come true.
