I tend to think along these lines

We have Cam with Grabbs as very capable backup for Striker Type One.

We need Striker Type Two - maybe Hoops could be backup for him. Destro sounds like he'd fit that bill. We don't need another Cam/Grabbs type as we already have, well, Cam and Grabbs.

From what I've read he'd potentially be a good signing. Still need a CB but I'll shut up about that ;-)
