Maybe if Young could prove that he is ready to focus on football this move would happen, but if that is the case there will be plenty of teams interested. It's too bad. I think if Young was dedicated, he could be a great fit here. The dimension he would bring to an already dynamic running game could buckle defenses. Also, Young throws a damn nice deep ball. In fact, in 2010 Pro Football Focus charted him for having the best percentage on deep passes (they ruled a deep pass as any ball traveling over 20 yards down field in the air)
