Too bad, I really liked Mike, when he was in Carolina at least.

Almost forgot about this guy. He had a good first year here.

I liked him too but it seems we dumped him at the right time.

Well said. That sums it up perfectly. I don't recall his measurements, but I think he was a bit undersized, especially for our new XXXXL sized O-Line.

Yeah, I also remember thinking that he was a good leader for the offense, but then later I found out that his teammates were rolling their eyes when he was talking. It was a great move by the Panthers to let him go when they did.

That revelation caught me by surprise when I first heard it. I was under the impression that he was one of the leaders in the locker room and yet, when those comments came out, it made me wonder whether the guys were losing respect for him or never had it in the first place.

he was one of the "addition by subtraction" guys.

whale and lucas really worked out very well in 05 and just kind of fizzled from then on. Injuries will do that to yah.
