[CBFF] ST - Company line: They got playmakers

[Jim Ferolie]

I think it's the Bears. They are being supportive because he has always said 
he wants to be a DB, and a happy returner is a good returner. But I think if 
he changed his mind, they'd jump at it. Really, how useful is he at DB right 
now?
