By the time this was done, both TM and HH were with the team and  known commodities by the staff....in fact, as I recall, HH was really impressing with his smarts and was being asked to add a little bulk...and I am sure by that same time TM's lack of grey matter had also become common knowledge among the staff. But, how would it LOOK to throw away a 3rd rounder to keep a 6th? Seems there was some face saving and politics behind that move.My, my...it is getting testy on the forum today!!</blockquote>
