    its amazing that someone that un-talented could have an nfl career that long

    and "marginal" is giving him more credit then he deserved for most of his career

    No, I'm pretty sure marginal is exactly the right term to describe Colledge.

    No we just need to get Bush signed up, and ST will be all set. No more fuggups like the one in Seattle that helped cause the loss.

    yeah, cause bringing all the same players back is a great way to improve

    Hawk, Jones, Lattimore, House and TWill are gone as well. There will be a lot of new faces on ST in if Bush returns.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    In the NFL, that all depends on ceilings, years of experience, position on the team. TT/Stubby teams often improve dramatically by bringing back 'the same guys' because they have another year of experience under their belts. You're probably glad they brought back Rodgers after 2008, right? Nelson after 2010? etc.

    then you can just emote. Saves you from all the pain of 'thinking.'

    Doesn't specifically apply to Bush, though I agree with the logic. He's on the wrong side of 30. Maybe he can still contribute on ST for another year, but better to cut ties a year too soon than a year too late.

    Does it mean anything that he's not signed back yet? Did they move on from JB, or are they waiting until after the draft? Nobody else seems to be in a hurry to sign him either. Perhaps they told him to go looking and see what he and his agent could come up with.

    Usually needs to pass a physical. Unless you are Peyton Manning.

    Not going anywhere, honestly. If we cut ties, his best hope is for a vet min contract somewhere. Bush would definitely prefer to stay in Green Bay where is (relatively) established.

    Wrong and right again. I should run for mayor. More money upfront, team can kill the deal earlier. Everyone wins except the kid who got an All-Day jersey for Christmas.

    Essentially it makes him happy. Vikings win because they can cut him next year with no dead money, Peterson wins because as PFT said, it forces the decision at the beginning of free agency which is to his benefit.
