I guess they are right in wanting to keep as many youngsters as they can for the long haul. The thing that has me going "huh?" is they are still wanting to resign Hampton. Unless he is going to stay at a huge discount to repay some of the millions he lost the team over the last few years, I can't believe they'd even consider it.
