Give Mr. young legs aka Chris Wilson an opportunity to rush the passer. With the attention going to the 100 million dollar man, Wilson should have one on one situations quite often. I never understood why they didn't give that young man an opportunity to begin with to have more chances to sack the QB.

Yeah, I agree with you on Chris Wilson. Do you think though that the front office has their eye on someone else at that position?

We probably should resign Evans with the cap space we just cleared up so we have him and Phillip Daniels as insurance policies if Chris Wilson doesn't succeed at the spot. I would much rather take Andre Smith(if he falls) or Michael Oher than Orakpo.

The team was willing to keep Taylor at his $8 million salary, but asked for a workout clause to be added to his contract.
The workout clause would have required Taylor to attend 25 of 39 days of the offseason program, and he refused.

Does that mean he's FA looking or resigning, though? I still think he's a cog in our machine if healthy. I also liked Rob Jackson last pre-season. A full season with the skins, I'm interested to see what he's bringing this year.
