Thanks for givin the guy some love. He has gotten better each game but it would not surprise me if they run a lot of plays at him sunday. He's a California boy if I remember right....should have some fans in the stands and some proving to do on the field...after all he was a 7th round draft pick.

Not sure about his contract status but count me in on hoping he stays too. He's turning into a solid LB. I'm sure he's on some other teams radar too.

Why is it that a player starts to be productive and Bam; his contract is up?

Bam isn't going anywhere yet?

TBC was a conversion project, four years to transition to a starting role isn't too bad.

I'm not usually a big sign 'em early guy but who else was in the pipeline at linebacker.

They might have cost themselves some money. TBC played very well against the Jets in a playoff game and some teams just go by that even if he isn't as good a fit for their system.

If TBC was willing to deal, they should have rolled the dice on this one for a long term contract IMO.

Given that TBC, after four years of instruction and training, has had a half dozen games of starting and is now becoming a FA.

And then you wonder why BB doesn't like to draft LBs?
