Lightning Bolts hit'm with the Lowest Tender??? 
OK...What's the punch line???
And before anyone says "His knees.", yes, I know all about the 5 Operations on'is Left Knee.
But the former UFA ~ who the Bolts picked up for nothing last October ~ had an absolutely monstrous second half, coming out'f the clear blue sky, and played like he wasn't feeling any lingering affects at all.
Mind you...
~ If he is as healthy as he says he is, then it's hard to imagine his Price staying low.
~ If he is as healthy as he says he is, then it's hard to imagine the Bolts declining to match.
But it's sure's Hell worth a go, eh??
1 ~ 6.5/216 Pound BEAST.
2 ~ Tremendous Work Ethic.
3 ~ Strong, willing Blocker.
4 ~ Brilliant: Walked in off the street and in 2 weeks was DOMINANT.
5 ~ Terrorized Defenses when he finally got healthy: 37/658/7 in half a Season!!
If this guy's truly healthy, and if the bewildering lack of interest on the part of the Bolts ~ combined with his extensive surgical history, which may well be what's causing that lack of interest, as opposed to anything current but currently unknown to the public ~ scares off or at least dampens the enthusiasm of other teams, then we could just possibly be in a position to land a flat out SuperStar just before his career takes off...and do so for pennies on the Dollar!! :rocker:
Just a notion.
I have no expectation of Coach Bill making any such Move.
But if the Price is right, and he checks out healthwise, I would pounce on this kid.
