This is just a reminder of how organizations have to balance risk/reward. This could have happened on our watch. Thankfully it didn't. Corey had one highly motivated year for the ages for us, then basically tanked. Whether it was injuries, the extension, or he just plain wore out. At least he limited his disappointing behavior to on the field. Bill has said it's difficult to predict which guys will age gradually and gracefully and which will simply hit a wall and be toast. Particularly amongst running backs. It's also true that a leopard never changes it's spots and these guys are by and large who they are before and after their NFL careers. The trick is in picking enough good guys to surround the obviously flawed ones with and hoping with that kind of support they will restrain themselves for upwards of a decade or at least during the period you retain them under contract...
Dillon has apparently come full circle. Too bad for all involved, particularly his kids.
