Since Columbus bought out his contract, is he worth taking a flyer on (no pun intended, really)?
I've been a fan of his from his Philly days when I was living just outside of Philly and got to watch him a lot. He has some of the edge that Ott had like the ability to get under the opposition's skin, but he could score as well. I have to admit that since I like him from years ago, I haven't really followed him, so he may be more like Ott than I'd be happy with.
Since he's being bought out, would he take a bit less than if he were a UFA?
I'm just throwing this out there. I could be way off base, but I think he'd be a good fit to replace some of Reaves physicality and grit.
Feel free to tell me to take a long walk on a short pier.
