6 Thoughts on a Thursday

Upside. Potential. These are words that inspire optimism and they are used to describe the two players who are going to be replacing Jay Hayes at defensive end. Khalid Kareem and Ade Ogundeji have greater potential than Hayes to be more disruptive forces at end. That upside lessens the blow of Hayes deciding to leave.

It is a blow, though. There was no guarantee that Kareem and Ogundeji were going usurp most of the reps at end from Hayes.
