Without going into go/no go upper limit spending guesses, what Snead says seems to bode well for resigning Dotson.
Let the other teams pick the low hanging fruit in free agency that costs too much. Snead always has a shrewd eye on the FA market. Value must be there in any signing.
I have a couple of Les Snead quotes copied and pinned above my desk, along with others from Teddy Roosevelt, Dag Hammarskjold, Gordon Lightfoot, and the Bible:
Wake up sprinting –begin each day striving for excellence
at top speed
Don't be scared –Have the
mental and moral strength
to venture, persevere,
and withstand adversity, fear and difficulty.
- Les Snead, GM, Los Angeles Rams
There is more to Les than meets the eye. This is a man of character, depth, and substance. He has a unique and encompassing overview within which his mastery of detail functions. What may seem impusive or rash to us is the enactment of carefully thought-out plans beforehand.
