bit jump patient players sure until
Until we know for sure all that's out there, we're just not going to jump the gun, and we have to be a little bit more patient and make sure we know what players are out there.
agent good problems relationship since tampa
We've always had good working relationship when I was in Tampa and since we've been here I find him to be a very, very good agent and (have) no problems with him at all.
antithesis certain drafted mike needed playing third year
When we drafted Mike we were in a different scheme. We were the antithesis of what we are now. Now is that to exonerate him not playing because of the scheme? No. Part of it, he needed to get better at certain things, but he didn't. He's got the tools. We got into the third year and we didn't see a big advance.
possible situation
We're going to look at every possible situation at that position. Always have, always will. We've got to get it right. We know that.

We're going to look at anybody that's out there.

We feel that the history of (Benson's) position as a rookie bodes well (for learning fast), and that was partly why we did what we did on draft day, too.

We've spoken to Lance's agent about doing that. These things take time. We're optimistic, but again, there are always two sides and we're working through it as we speak.
problem
We've never had a problem with him, going back to when (he was in) Tampa.

We're going with the hand that we dealt ourselves. It's unfortunate; Rex will be missed.

We made an investment in a player, and I believe you play your investments out. Is that 100 percent sure he's gonna be on our team's opening day roster? I can't guarantee that, either.
history position rookies
We feel the history of his position for rookies bodes well.
