Agreed. I understand Tad was a popular player with the fans, and he is a great utility player, but everyone seems to be making him out to be some all CFL player or something. Is that from his 1 INT a year? Perhaps his 1/2 a sack? I mean, clearly he had a great year in 2009, but people make it sound like he was getting 5 INT a year. he provided 3 tackles a game and was an emotional leader. Yeah, loosing that emotion is a hit, but I think a guy like Romero can fill that void.
I like Tad, he is a decent player and seems to be well respected by fans and teammates. Was I surprised to see him go…for sure. Was I even pissed off…yeah, at first. But in reflection, something had to give. Unfortunately, that was Tad.
ALSO, for those saying if someone is not signed in 1 week the cap space thing was BS, it might be 6 weeks. Chances are that they want to go after a NFL cut, likely a late cut. By my rough math, they should have about 200k they can invest.
