Too much $$$ for a 4th/5th WR.  He's got speed, and I was impressed with his guts when he was here.  He'll make a team happy as a WR3.

Wouldn't he immediately be the best Dallas has?

He showed a lot of heart coming back after his injury.  It was a painful one to see.

Yeah. I liked the guy, and although I think he naturally has the dropsies to some degree, I think having to shag Harrington's poorly thrown passes made him look worse than he is. I thought he was going to be a pansy when the Lions signed him, so I was pleasantly surprised in that regard.

 

I wish Az much success wherever he ends up... as long as it's not GB, Minny, Chicago, Dallas, Washington, or Philly.

Why cut them now? Isn't there a bigger cap hit if cutting prior to June or am I thinking of something else?

This is how I understand it: cutting prior to June 1 accelerates the entire cap hit for the signing bonus to this year. Cutting after June 1 means the team takes only the 2005 portion of the signing bonus cap hit this year, and the remainder is accelerated in 2006. The Lions would cut Hakim now if they have extra cap room and don't want to be burdened by the cap hit next year or if he's in his last year of his contract, in which case no portion of the signing bonus could be spread to 2006 anyways.
