    I for one didn't want to see Strait traded. I'm excited that he's back. Who else feels he will even be more hungry now that he was traded to show the Jets almost made a huge mistake? I like that they are playing him at safety as well..

    Ah the fumbled snap. The staple of last year's offense!

    I wish we had suggs instead of strait, suggs could have given us instant production, strait will give us that 2 times a game if we're lucky.

    You are really forgetting about inate ability IMHO. Either you got it or you do not. Coaching up will only get U so far

    But he couldn't even pass a physical. You can't get production out of anyone when they are on the mend over and over again.

    I heard he has a really good chance of being cut.

    I like Strait and am glad hes back. In my mind we are set at DB and theres no need to adjust it in terms of depth. I know hes not the best but hes a trier.
    The words injury and Suggs appeared to often for me.

    Triers never won Super Bowls. Get me a do-er. I like Strait but losing him was not going to effect the team. Countless average DB's are shuffled from team to team and unless you're the Patriots you never hear about them after the first game.

    Booo. He should have let Hartigan stay at least until after that game. Heartless.

    Meh, Strait can sink to the bottom of the depth chart and get cut next year. Whoop-di-damn-do.
