Preston has been a consistent and reliable cog in GB for years. I have more times than not been one of the first defenders of how valuable that was to us here on this board. My first thought when I found out we traded him and didn't work out a deal elsewhere (I know for a fact Gute tried) to bring someone in - this sucks and our front just got worse.Now having had some time to remove my emotional biasness out of it, the truth is Preston was becoming less and less in the picture for our defense and this move also indicates there was NO 2025 with Preston in it. With the lessoning snaps and how some have said he wasn't fitting the new system - for all we as fans know Preston and the team may have already discussed and this was more a move/gesture respecting what he's done, sending to a contender, wiping some money from the books and getting back something rather than nothing "nearer in the future than otherwise". It's a make or break move for the young guys....Enagbare, Mosby and Cox are hungry for their NFL futures...hunger can cause some elevated play and we gotta hope that pans out. If it doesn't this move is going to hurt us this year for sure on the field despite how much fiscal sense it made. I still think a released veteran is likely to be added at some point...just clueless who that might be.</blockquote>
