With every bizarre coaching hire (or non-hire) I'm more and more convinced that some guys can just get in a room and blow an owners skirt up. They say the right stuff in the right way. May not be able to coach for shit, but by God they can sell.

And when you're looking at the bottom 5-8 spots on a roster, I'm guessing some of it really does come down to "I like that guy". And it's easy to see why Toney would be hard to like.

So you joke, but shit man, "Skyy has a great smile" MAY just be the reason he's on the roster. The coaches like the guy as he's sitting there with a big grin after spending an entire meeting taking notes, making good eye contact and looking really engaged.

He LOOKS the part of someone you want to succeed.

Then comes gameday and it all just disappears.

But man, "Skyy has a great smile" is as close to a sensible reason as actually exists for him to be on an NFL roster at this point. He's done everything possible to lose the job and has blown MASSIVE opportunities in his first two seasons. So what else is left?
