has he grown up enough, has he matured enough, has he seen enough to make a decision which is/could be bigger than being a starter RIGHT NOW? He seems to have a meshing with Matthew, has he had a guy with that pedigree and knowledge in his other stops? (much less a HC like Sean) it seems to me he has gone to places where that starter spot was open he got chances and none worked out.
IMO he needs to look long range as he is still young it's not like this is his last ride on the carousel. I think the RAMS would/could make plans for his money as a #2, he would have a good learning curve opening up for him as well.....
