    House really played well against the Falcons when he came in in relief, but then he got hurt and did not play as much.

    Maybe he did need extended playing time. He flashed a lot of promise but then again he seemed to play soft oftentimes.

      Didn't realize this, his head coach and position coach from New Mexico State are now on the Jaguar's staff:
      The HC there was Seattle's DC under Carroll for a couple of years also. They seem to like bigger corners in that system.

        If the issue really was the guarantee, and not so much the overall contract amount, House and the Packers might have viewed the situation exactly the same, but from opposite side:

        GB was OK with risking $1.25M/yr but not $2.5M/yr guaranteed to a guy who might not play.
        House, knowing his own injury history absolutely needed the higher guarantee.

          People disappointed that House is gone will be happy a year from now when Hayward is re-signed. He's the better player.

          Hope he's right.

            CB has to be considered a position of need right now. If they sign TW, one starting corner is getting old, maybe showed it a bit last year and will always be a concern going forward simply due to his age. The other starter misses games every year. Behind them is a guy perhaps not suited to playing outside, another who they can't seem to determine if he is a corner or a safety, and the third is a basketball player. Things could be sketchy if they lose one of the starters, and desperate in a game if they lose both.

            Can't wait for that 2nd or 3rd round draft pick to show up in camp!
            My recollection is that House got beat a few times over the top and they lost confidence in him. He had some rough games. Maybe it was injury.

              House's issue is he can't stay on the field.
