course days few good next revisit talks
We probably will revisit that here in the next few days or week, what course we're going to go into. But we've had some pretty good talks with him and nothing has really come to fruition.
jerry looking position
With Jerry potentially not being with us, we'll be looking at that position very hard.
build contingent dealt football good hand obviously team
We're going in with the hand we dealt ourselves. We said that going in and we're comfortable with it. We feel good about our football team. If we're contingent on just one player, then obviously we didn't build this team to win.
couple tampa
It would be something you'd want to think about. We did it in Tampa a couple times. It would be something we'd entertain.
guy impressive
Probably the most impressive guy who I've interviewed.
areas experience gained game improve needs rookie
Orton's got to take another step. He needs to take the experience that he gained as a rookie and take another step. There are areas of his game that he has to improve before I feel really comfortable with him.
job period safeguard
We like what we have, but we've got to see it over a period of time. We haven't been able to do that. So my job is to safeguard the position.
best everybody guy looks mind mindful obvious though
Even though there's a guy out there that looks obvious to everybody here, it's not necessarily in his mind his best option. We have to be mindful of that, as well.

Everybody else saw him as a role back. But we saw him as a featured back and our money stood behind that assessment.
certainly fits quality rewards time whether wonder worth
At the end of the day when you're making any decision, you wonder whether the rewards are worth the risk. And in this case, they certainly were. We got a quality quarterback that really fits into what we do offensively and makes us better. And that's our job. We feel good. Now time will tell.
best bit everybody latitude player says stay true
We have a little bit more latitude this year. We want to stay with the best player available. Everybody says it, but we really want to stay true to that.
certain draft investment irrelevant needed pick player sure terms time
We wanted to make sure any time we draft a player we've made an investment in him and we're going to play the investment out. We just needed to see certain things in terms of his progression, irrelevant of him being a first-round pick or a seventh-round pick.
agency free happen
I would like free agency to happen after the draft. The union, obviously, would like free agency to come before the draft.

Mike Brown has been such a catalyst for us emotionally as a leader, anytime you take an emotional leader off the field it impacts you.
