Northcutt, Going, Going...

Over the weekend Policy stated Northcutt was going to try free agency no matter what. Not surprising. Now it's a matter of whether there is one team, especially a West Coast or at least warm weather one, who will pay him like a starter. I think the odds are 50/50.

Last offseason the Redskins paid Chad Morton and it turned out to be a mistake -- Morton is a solid player but not in that class. I think Northcutt is more explosive and a team could really make a case for paying him similarly. But perhaps the Redskins experience will give teams pause when considering paying a punt returner too much. There aren't yet any teams reported to be interested yet, but it's a matter of time. I think Arizona would make a great fit.
