"The four quarterback thing a lot of people said was a luxury and were wondering why we were doing that," Taman said. "Well, if I can get another quarterback to come in that we think has a future, there are going to be four quarterbacks there again." [b]Other gunslingers on Taman's neg list include Casey Bramlet (Atlanta) [/b]and Tyler Thigpen (Minnesota), and free agents Zac Taylor and John Stocco.

John Murphy, Winnipeg's director of player personnel, called the acquisition of Jones a "win-win" situation on and off the field
Yes. He's the guy that was supposed to be the great returner but his first game he was "overwhelmed" by the size of the field, the wind, etc. He played 2 games at receiver before being injured. Once he was healthy he was released.
The "Database" brought us defensive backs who actually intercept the ball...the napkin gave us a secondary that watched passes get caught left right and center.
You make it sound like the ex-riders are no good! He may not have scouted them, but he did acquire them. Database has assembled one dangerous defence so that should never be a part of the debate. From the coordinator to the players, this is working pretty good. A tweak here or there (ie: Craver) and some time playing together, imagine how scary this D could be in the next few years. (even if Simpson is not a part of it)
