Yeah, hiring someone else's disgruntled employee with an injury history and a year off the field getting out of football shape?

Did we just want to throw money at bad ideas???

He isn't the only player that left the Redskins upset about the conduct of the team medical staff. Apparently it was a real problem.

Seattle did it.

Big difference between Greg wanting to go elsewhere and Williams' last season conduct. Biiiig difference. Olsen showed up for work, did his job and left after the season was over, with no bad mouthing of the organization.

There's two ways to go about it -- Williams did it wrong, Olsen did it with class.

But he did throw an epic fit. And that skin cancer thing, if I remember correctly.

I mean....you wouldn't be furious if they misdiagnosed something that was cancerous? It apparently went on for years that he voiced his concerns about it and the team doctors told him it was fine and then when they finally tested it, they found out it was a rare form of cancer. It's a growth, it really doesn't take much effort to just take a sample and send it off to a lab to get it tested.

I'm not arguing that the Redskins did him wrong, I'm just saying let's stay out of that situation. We've got a team to rebuild, it might not be the time to bring a guy in to rehab from another team. Especially at the high dollars he will want. Let someone else roll the dice on that high chip count.

That is soooo much better than many would say in the same situation. He let his side be known without going into some kind of diatribe or creating a sh!tshow.

Heck, I wish we still had him for the upcoming season, but when everyone calls for regime change, it gets messy.
