Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 675317">I would not assume this to be a last minute decision; more a measuring of pros and cons over a period of time.  Once they paid Sitton the $300,000 roster bonus, there was no financial advantage to acting earlier.People don't change overnight.  The locker room is not a pre-teen sleepover; some thick skin is required.  Peccadilloes are tolerated if the game day play is up to snuff.  If there was a pattern of bad locker room behavior, then the question becomes a balancing of expected performance, cost of any disruption, and cap cost.  This guy's been around a long time; if he's an a**hole in the lockroom, that did not happen just last week.Questioning the head coach's judgement is always a checkbox on the negative side, yet they brought him back at that $300,000 cost.  They could have cut him before the draft and picked a guard instead of 2 tackles.Something may have happened recently that tipped the scales, but it's reasonable to think the measuring of pros and cons was ongoing.</blockquote>
