Waiver wire watch

[TFG]

Clearly, we need some help here in KC. As is the truth of the words of wisdom,

"That the conclusion of every weekend in the Fall must be that football and idiocy are, in fact, one and the same."

there will undoubtedly be some very stupid cuts coming from the other 31...


Instead of just posting who you'd like to see, wait until the player is actually cut, and then explain why the Chiefs should claim him.


1. Josh Mauga - LB Nevada - just cut by the Jest. Heck, great times, size, production, injury issues... but, the reason the Chiefs really need Josh = he had the lowest score on the Wonderlic test for a MLB at the Combine. Hence, the philosophy behind claiming Josh would be a hypothesis of an inverse correlation between football and intelligence. Anyone and everyone who has cheered for Vanderbilt over the past quarter century can attest to the reality of this particular hypothesis...

[booger]

Mauga just signed sometime this month too didn't he? Undrafted and didn't even get a tryout. I was suprised by that.

[milkman]

Mauga just signed sometime this month too didn't he? Undrafted and didn't even get a tryout. I was suprised by that.

Yeah, just a couple of weeks ago.

Didn't really get much of an opportunity, but I can't sese the Chiefs going after him, given that he was out there for so long before being signed.

[booger]

Yeah. Also of note is i think he is more of a thumper at ILB. Our pass drops have been very bad from those spots and he probably wouldn't upgrade Beisel or mays, probably not even belcher. This is a spot that Demo Williams needs to step up as that could be a role for him to fill as a coverage/nickel backer.

He had a torn pec that forced him to miss the bowl game against Maryland. To get signed, you must first pass a physical.

Mauga is a player. Fast and agile. I'd grab him now and attempt to stash him on the PS next week.

The Redskins released five players on Sunday, including linebacker Alfred Fincher and offensive lineman Devin Clark, to get down to the roster limit of 75.

Along with Fincher and Clark, the Redskins released wide receiver Marques Hagans, safety Michael Grant and defensive lineman Michael Marquardt.

Who has made it so far? All of the club’s draft picks and undrafted rookies remain on the roster.

Following this Thursday’s preseason finale at Jacksonville, the Redskins must reduce their roster to the NFL-mandated 53 by Sept. 5.

Fincher’s release was a mild surprise, but the Redskins drafted two linebackers in Cody Glenn and Robert Henson and have been impressed with undrafted rookie Darrel Young.
null

Fincher was on the Redskins’ roster all of last season and played primarily on special teams, recording nine tackles in 15 games.

"To us, there was kind of a ceiling there on him, compared to the other guys who are coming on," Jim Zorn said of Fincher. "He may have been more seasoned, but sometimes in a younger guy there is a potential there that you like."

Clark, a 6-4, 325-pound offensive lineman who lined up at tackle in preseason, played in two games for the Redskins last year. He spent the first 14 weeks of the season on the team’s practice squad.

Grant and Hagans were also on the Redskins’ practice squad last year. Grant originally joined the practice squad on Nov. 27 and Hagans originally joined the practice squad on Dec. 9.

Hagans was thought to be in the mix for the No. 5 wide receiver job, but he did not make an impact in preseason games, catching just one pass for nine yards.

Marquardt joined the Redskins in the middle of 2009 training camp.

The San Francisco 49ers have complied, two days early, with the requirement that they reduce their rosters from 80 to 75.

Gone are receiver Mark Bradford, receiver Chris Francies, kicker Alex Romero, cornerback Carlos Thomas, and cornerback Jahi Word-Daniels.

The team made the announcement on Sunday afternoon.

None had much of a history with the team. All become fodder for the UFL.

Pats dump Kevin O'Connell
Posted by Mike Florio on August 30, 2009 4:29 PM ET
Last year, there was much speculation that the Patriots might cut backup quarterback Matt Cassel, who was having a preseason most league observers regarded as rough.

If rookie Kevin O'Connell, a third-round draft pick in 2008, had been ready to fill the void in the event starter Tom Brady became injured (which, obviously, he did), maybe Cassel would have been cut.

Cassel stayed, and we know the rest of the story.

This year, O'Connell surprisingly has gotten the boot, despite his third-round pedigree.

The news comes from Mike Reiss of ESPNBoston.com Future, who for now is still working the beat for the Globe.

O'Connell will be subject to the waivers system. And the team most likely to make a claim will be the Kansas City Chiefs, given that G.M. Scott Pioli was the V.P. of player personnel in New England when O'Connell arrived from San Diego State a year ago.

The only teams with priority over the Chiefs in the waiver process will be the Lions and the Rams. Given the uncertainty of the quarterback depth chart in St. Louis, we wouldn't be surprised if the Rams put in a claim for him.

If the Chiefs get O'Connell and move Tyler Thigpen, they'll have the same trio of quarterbacks that the Pats had last year, post-Brady: Cassell, O'Connell, and Matt Gutierrez.

MECCA and HAMAS BOTH said it in the draft thread, said dimitroff(sp) was in charge of drafts, pioli was in charge of signing free agents. it was about 290 posts in

[SAUTO]

He's actually right Pioli was pro personnel...Dmitrov was the head of college scouting.

Yeah at getting PRO free agents. Atlanta's GM was the college guy.

Sorry, Jason, I was involved in many of those arguments, and I don't recall seeing that claim.

the quotes are backwards, then later hamas chimed in.

[TFG]

I was thinking the board should have a "stuck" thread on this topic, with specifically posts about specific players cut, and nothing but that to clutter up the topic. If you have watched player X and he gets cut and you think the Chiefs should grab him, tell us why. Clearly, Mauga's Wonderlic score was an attempt at humor that didn't exactly set the planet on fire...

The kid doesn't have what I call "trajectory assessment." He doesn't adjust to a thrown ball. If you hit him in stride, he looks like a second rounder. He's blazing fast and can turn. His eyes and brain just do not properly assess a thrown football. He also turns it over.

[TFG]

Yes, he had a long return for a TD and a long catch for a TD. I believe the throw was "perfect" and the kick or punt he returned was not a "difficult" one. In Tampa, you have to catch punts in the rain sometimes. In the Shrine game, it looked like he had trouble adjusting to thrown balls.

[TFG]

One of the shocking things about Dexter Jackson's college stats was how few catches he really had. A Second Rounder at A-State should have 100 catches. He didn't. He never had more than 33 catches in a season. WHY? Because the ball had to be perfect or he didn't adjust to it.

-- Seahawks Could Release Deion Branch --
Mon Aug 31, 2009 --from FFMastermind.com

•Tacoma News-Tribune's Eric D. Williams believes the Seattle Seahawks could cut WR Deion Branch. The team traditionally kept six receivers while HC Mike Holmgren was coach, but new OC Greg Knapp has run more two-tight-end sets during the preseason and not as many three- or four-receiver sets, so the Seahawks could get by with keeping just five wideouts. So far, WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh, WR Nate Burleson, and WR Deon Butler are likely in, with WR Deion Branch, WR Courtney Taylor, WR Ben Obomanu and WR Jordan Kent fighting for the last couple of spots. Branch will make $5 million this season to be Seattle's third receiver and the Seahawks have a lot of depth at the position. So they may live with five receivers and let Branch go to keep a player at a different position.

http://www.ffmastermind.com/quickbits

[TFG]

The Panthers put OL CJ Davis (undrafted - Pitt) on IR today. I believe he must "clear waivers" before he goes there. Davis is a tough interior with a lot of experience, and a pretty decent C and OLG. He is fundamentally sound, decently athletic, and has power. If he has not yet cleared waivers and isn't going to be out much longer - a big IF considering he's been out with an ankle for at least three weeks - I'd grab him.

[booger]

Also the panthers cut Rookie OT Gerald Cadogan from Penn St. I think the chiefs showed interest in him before the draft.

Cadogan has a "narrow base" and lacks power. He is great working out in shorts at the Combine. He really should try another position. He isn't powerful enough for OL.

From nfl.com/draft

Strengths: Strong in the lower body, can get under the pads of taller defensive ends to drive them back. Has the length and anchor to keep defenders at bay in pass protection. Quick to cut his end on rush plays and screen passes. Gives great effort in the open field, and will latch onto defenders or just put a hand on them to widen the running lane. Plays with an attitude.

Weaknesses: Only adequate height and bulk for the left tackle position, and may move inside at the next level. Lacks the quick feet for outside pass protection. Inconsistent with his initial quickness off the snap. Loses his balance in pass protection and blocking on the second level because he overextends. Not consistently effective on pulls, and misses targets in space due to his heavy-footedness.

[TFG]

why would he have to clear waivers to go on IR


It is that "waived/injured" thing. It happened to one I liked, undrafted WR Lucas Taylor of Tenn, by the Broncos. If the kid is going to get cut and has a "minor injury," the team can either "waive/injure" him and place him on IR if he clears waivers, or "injury settlement" which is "goodbye forever." You cannot cut a player "injured." NFLPA stuff.

[TFG]

Loses his balance in pass protection and blocking on the second level because he overextends (TFG insertion = because he lacks power and doesn't trust his power). Not consistently effective on pulls, and misses targets in space due to his heavy-footedness.

we got enough of them already. lol


He definitely has quick feet. I would not describe him as "heavy footed" either. He gets there. He puts his hands on the defender... and nothing happens. Hips are too narrow and hence he doesn't "pivot" and sink his hips with power.


At the combine, he smoked the 40...


40 5.12 tied for fourth amongst OLs

http://www.nfl.com/combine/top-performers?tabIndex=0#tp-tab-set-1:tp-grid-container-forty-yard-dash


Notice that he is way back on the "turning" drills, and just flat out sorry on the jumps. The "jumps" measure "explosion" and short term "power" for OLs, because OL power comes from the base - lower body. A "narrow base" for an OL also means "top heavy" because the whole body cannot be "narrow" for any sort of "power" position. Those usually have big trouble with anchoring and double moves.

Report: Browns release Ryan Tucker
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on August 31, 2009 6:01 PM ET
After seven up and down years, offensive lineman Ryan Tucker's run in Cleveland appears to be over.

ESPN Cleveland is reporting that the Browns have cut Tucker and cornerback Roderick Hood. The Browns did not confirm Tucker's news in a release Monday that did mention the release of Hood, who has suffered a steep fall from grace since leaving the Eagles.

Hood was expected to compete for a starting job at the start of training camp, as was Tucker. But Tucker couldn't avoid his nagging injury problems, and hadn't been seen at the Browns facility since having to leave a practice last week. He reportedly underwent knee surgery last Wednesday.

Tucker won a Super Bowl ring as a member of the '99 Rams.

I didn't throw a fit, but I was shocked. I assumed he really p!ssed off the coaching staff.

I was a little annoyed that he was let go, only because the Chiefs have crap for talent at WR... and had even less at that point.... and he was a tall, fast, athletic WR that should have at least went to camp, IMO.

And, I still haven't heard what caused him to be released.

He was already with the Chiefs earlier this year. I think they cut him before the draft. If they didn't like him then, they won't like him now.After seeing how Barry Richardson, Damion McInSOFT, and Herb Taylor have performed, they might reconsider.

be interesting to see if the pats cut RT Ryan O'Callaghan. Wonder if Amnorix has any insight to that?

According to the WashTimes reporter, the Skins should cut UDFA Edwin Williams C Maryland.


http://washingtontimes.com/weblogs/redskins/2009/sep/01/redskins-53-man-projection/


If this idiot reporter is right, the Chiefs need to put in a claim. I doubt he is right, because Joe Bugel went out of his way to say he likes Edwin, but I also believe football and idiocy are one and the same. Edwin Williams would be a huge upgrade at Center.

HA HAA!! This is the guy you had us picking in the 3rd rnd!!! I'll bet you were researching him to tell us how right you were about him, and how he was flourishing for some team. Whoops.

Yeah, he's awesome. Can't even make a roster.


That said. I think we should look at anyone for the O-line.

O'Call is really not athletic enough to be an NFL starting OT. Smart, big, some power, he just isn't quick.

[TFG]

The Rams cut Joe Klopfenstein.

He's a very large guy, he's fast for a TE and coming out of college he had good hands but seems to have developed a mental block. He's always been a pretty hardnosed player.

All the tools are there for him to be a solid player in the league, I'd like to give him a look.


Good receiver. Absolute zero as a blocker.

Indeed, I was the only "Draft Guru" online who had anything but an undrafted grade on Lilja...

Congrats to those who watched him in preseason and saw he clearly was not someone who should have been cut.

Is it worth it to bring in Stepanovich (c) for a look?

[DJ's left nut]

Good receiver. Absolute zero as a blocker.

At this point, that is true.

However, he has a very large frame and is a powerful kid. With the way he'd sacrifice his body over the middle to make a catch, he has the mentality to be a good blocker. He was just never asked to do it in Colorado and seemed to run into injury issues in STL.

The TE may be marginalized in this offense, but we still need to have an NFL caliber player there. At present, we don't. I think Klop could be a solid player for us.

Is it worth it to bring in Stepanovich (c) for a look?

The Steelers O-Line isn't really all that much better than the Chiefs, and as I understand it, they have some injury issues and a lack of experienced depth, yet they still think that Stepanovitch is expendable.

Can't rule anyone out, and when he came out of school, I thought he had some potential.

But I really don't think there's much to see.

Casey Hampton on the outs?
Posted by Mike Florio on September 2, 2009 7:32 AM ET
As the huge roster reduction from 75 to 53 approaches (the deadline is Saturday at 6:00 p.m. ET), some veteran players could be on the bubble.

One such player, according to Jason La Canfora of NFL Network (i.e., don't blame us), possibly is Steelers nose tackle Casey Hampton.

Asked during a Monday chat whether he sees any potential surprises on the cut-down horizon, La Canfora wrote, "One player I am sniffing around on right now is Casey Hampton. [Editor's note: That's one hell of an image with which to start the morning.] Steelers could use some cap room, he may not be [someone] they would extend at this point. [I'd] think a trade is more likely, but some people I know close to the situation say they would not be stunned if a move of some sort was made."

Wow.

Last year, Hampton showed up for training camp well above his target weight, and he was held out of practice until August 10. (Thanks, Rotoworld.) He went on to start 13 regular-season games and three postseason contests, including the Super Bowl.

This year, Hampton showed up within his proper weight, and he has started each of the three preseason games. And while he's entering the final year of his contract, at a salary of $3.075 million, the Steelers typically don't move guys that they might not be planning to re-sign. Instead, the Steelers allow them to finish out their deals, and then to leave.

As word of La Canfora's opinion has made the round, Hampton addressed the matter after practice on Tuesday.

"Oh, they're going to cut me today?" Hampton said, according to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

But Hampton then addressed his uncertain future, given that defensive end Brett Keisel was picked to receive a five-year deal -- and Hampton wasn't.

"If they let me get to free agency, everybody knows what it's going to be," Hampton said. "There ain't nothing to even talk about."

If La Canfora's "sniffing around" Hampton yields other than the smell of Twinkie crumbs, Hampton might be a free agent six months before he otherwise planned to be.

[the Talking Can]

I'd take a flyer on Casey Hampton in a heartbeat. Our NTs are trash. Even a band-aid approach would at least buy us some time until we could find a more permanent solution.

OMG OMG

Please, please, please. He's got some good years left.

[milkman]

I find that Hampton rumor extremely difficult to believe.

They might let him walk after his contract is up after this season, but I highly doubt that they simply cut him this year.

Now, they might put him on the trading block right now so they can get something in return before his contract expires, but no way in hell they just cut him.

And it would take a decent draft pick to get him.

Here's the full story about Hampton...


Steelers' Hampton not worried about contract rumors
Buzz up!By Scott Brown, TRIBUNE-REVIEW
Wednesday, September 2, 2009


Casey Hampton
Chaz Palla/Tribune-Review file

About the writer
Scott Brown is the Steelers beat writer. He can be reached via e-mail. Also check out Brown's blog and Steelers Q&A.

Casey Hampton reacted to Internet rumors that the Steelers will release the veteran nose tackle before the start of the regular season.

"Oh, they're going to cut me today?" Hampton said after Tuesday's practice.

If he didn't seem too concerned, neither did inside linebacker James Farrior, who's long benefited from Hampton occupying multiple blockers up front.

"Been nice working with you, dawg," Farrior said, with a laugh, as he left the Steelers' locker room.

Unfortunately for Hampton, Farrior may say something similar to him in the not-so-distant future.

Hampton is one of a handful of starters heading into the final year of his contract, and the Steelers may be finished doing business until after the 2009 season following the signing of defensive end Brett Keisel to a five-year deal Monday.

"If they let me get to free agency, everybody knows what it's going to be," said Hampton, who's made four Pro Bowls. "There ain't nothing to even talk about."

That might be another way of saying that Hampton is out of here if the Steelers don't sign him to a new deal prior to the regular-season opener Sept. 10.

Hampton spouted the same company line that others in his position have said since preseason practice started -- sort of.

"I'd be lying if I said it didn't bother me, but that's part of the business," Hampton said. "But I'm not going to worry about it. I'm not going to make a grudge and say, 'I can't understand why they didn't sign me.' I understand it's a business, but being here this long ... I'm not going to lie and say it doesn't bother me because I do want to be here."

Of course, there's some risk for the Steelers if they choose to sign the 6-foot-1 Hampton, who's listed at 325 pounds, to a long-term deal. He's on the wrong side of 30, and his weight is always going to be a concern.

The risk in not signing him, of course, is trying to find someone to plug into the middle of the Steelers' 3-4 defense. Those players aren't nearly as easy to find as, say, linebackers. His present backup is Chris Hoke.

And Hampton, who turns 32 on Thursday, said he still has plenty of good years left in him.

"Ain't no question in my mind. I know what I'm capable of doing," Hampton said. "I was banged up all last year, played through it, never complained. I'm feeling real healthy this year, and I feel like when I'm healthy ... we're going to see."

But, he added, his contract situation won't become a distraction or a problem for the Steelers.

"Just trying to win a Super Bowl," Hampton said. "Not trying to be complacent like we were last time. Just trying to show these young guys to work to get back to where we were at."

Muir should have some insight.

Biggs: Source says Bucs will release veteran lineman MahanTampa recently forced him to take pay cut, now he's gone
Brad Biggs

September 02, 2009, 11:56 AM EST

Sean Mahan discovered you can go home, you just can’t stay too long.

Originally drafted by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2003, and then re-acquired by the Bucs last September in a trade, Mahan was informed he will be released, a league source said.
It’s somewhat surprising from the standpoint that the center/guard had agreed to restructure his contract earlier this summer, and typically teams do not release players after going to them for a pay cut.

Mahan earned reportedly $6 million last season but didn’t see action behind center Jeff Faine. Although a calf injury sidelined Mahan some during training camp, he’s been available more than Faine, who has had a groin injury. The move signifies the Bucs will have to find someone else to play a reserve role behind Faine. Mahan was due to earn $1.6 million in base salary this season according to NFLPA records. Apparently, that was more than the team wanted to pay a backup and he wasn't moving to guard with Jeremy Zuttah and Davin Joseph entrenched.

He had signed a $17 million, five-year contract to join the Steelers in 2007, but they traded him back to Tampa after just one season in which he started all 16 games. Mahan, 29, has appeared in 88 career games with 52 starts.

Come on, Jason. If you're being cut on the first cut down from 80 to 75, you pretty much suck.

That doesn't mean that there won't be guys that can help the Chiefs. They may not claim any guys off of this round of cuts but I'd be shocked if they didn't claim a few on the next round when it goes from 75 to 53.

There will definitely be more than a few guys out there that can provide an upgrade to this roster.

[Quesadilla Joe]

OMG OMG

Please, please, please. He's got some good years left.
He won't want to come to KC.
Q: When you get cut, the Lions would probably claim you. How would you win the Super Bowl?

CH: Nah, if the Lions pick me up on waivers, I’ll tell them I’ll retire. (Laughs) I ain’t going there.

[T-post Tom]

Hence, the philosophy behind claiming Josh would be a hypothesis of an inverse correlation between football and intelligence. Anyone and everyone who has cheered for Vanderbilt over the past quarter century can attest to the reality of this particular hypothesis...

Hampton clearly does not sukk. I just don't contribute to Mike Florio's take home pay by jumping at stories like that. The Steelers are not going to cut Hampton. Whether or not Mike Florio makes money by starting BS that he is or "might" depends on you. Mike Florio is the slime of the universe. He knows precisely nothing about football. All he does is "parrot" agents and lie. And, yeah, he celebrates injuries too... because he never played a contact sport in his life.

Posted in the other thread, but not sure which one it applies to, sorry for the repost..

Several players being shopped
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel


"The Green Bay Packers have been shopping several players heading into the deadline for mandatory roster cuts Saturday.

Several league personnel sources said that among the players the Packers have been shopping are tackle Tony Moll and safeties Charlie Peprah and Aaron Rouse. All three would be candidates to be released when the Packers have to trim their roster from 75 to 53.

It's not unusual for the Packers to make calls around the league to see if there would be interest in making a trade. Their hope would be that a team low on the waiver priority list would want one of the players they're offering and be willing to trade a draft pick to cut in front of the other teams.

At least two linemen are being shopped by the Packers and presumably one of the others is center Scott Wells, who lost a training camp competition with Jason Spitz for a starting spot. However, none of the scouts specifically identified Wells as trade bait.

If Moll is on the block, it indicates that the Packers are considering releasing him and want to see if they can get compensation instead. Of the backup linemen, Wells has the most trade value, but the Packers would have to get a strong offer for him because their only other option now to back up Spitz is rookie free agent Evan Deitrich-Smith."

They had no takers for Jackson so they just decided to keep the top 3.

I'd pick up Brohm put him 3rd string it's worth a shot.

Updating previous reports, Adam Schefter, of ESPN, reports the Green Bay Packers sent OT Tony Moll to the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for DB Derrick Martin.

[carlos3652]

Boomer got Paid!

[Mecca]

Buster is not any kind of fit for the Chiefs, he's 5'10.

[Ebolapox]

too bad we don't run a tampa 2 anymore. cato's available!

wait--it's a GOOD thing we don't run the tampa 2 anymore. nevermind.

[Titty Meat]

Marcus Freeman would be a good pick up. 5th round pick good player at OSU. If anything special teams would be more athletic.

[Titty Meat]

The Bears also released Dominic Rioala. Not sure how good he's been in the NFL but in college he was a stud. He's probably an upgrade over Niswanger.

[Mr. Krab]

Didn't the bears release his brother, not Dominic?

[Mr. Arrowhead]

I think he started for the Lions for a little bit, which isnt saying much

The one that starts for the Lions is his brother.

I hated the Tampon 2.

I'll take an undermanned 3-4 any day of the week over that ridiculous defense.

[Titty Meat]

Didn't the bears release his brother, not Dominic?

Fuck you KKFL! It said Bears released Rioala and I didn't even know his brother played in the NFL.

[Titty Meat]

Marcus Freeman would be a good pick up though. Surprised he didn't get drafted til the 5th round.

[KCChiefsMan]

I think we are definitely going to pick up another RT, no way we can go into the season with what we have right now. I like how Pioli said that this is a fun time of year for him

[carlos3652]

The Jaguars have reportedly put DB Brian Williams on the trading block.
They're desperate to get rookie Derek Cox in the lineup. Williams has value as a corner/safety with good tackling ability, but the 30-year-old's $4 million salary may be too prohibitive. The Jags may just end up cutting him.

[Titty Meat]

Rod Hood was also released by the Bears who have Hester and Mourning. If I recall Hood did some returns in Philly. That might be worth a look cuz the Chiefs don't have a returner.

[carlos3652]

49ers waived RB Kory Sheets, OL Jacob Bender, WR Dominique Zeigler, OT Alex Boone, and TE Bear Pascoe.
The Niners will try to get all of the above on their practice squad, but doing so with Boone and Sheets will be difficult. Both have NFL caliber talent and weren't overwhelmed in the preseason. With Pascoe and J.J. Finley both gone, San Francisco is carrying just two tight ends.

[Hoover]

Delta O'Neil was cut. Kick Returner?

[carlos3652]

Boone for RT! make the call...

[CaliforniaChief]

If nothing else they might wanna bring in Figurs to get information on Baltimore. Not sure if he's still effective as a returner, but he's certain to be an upgrade over the guys we have now.

[Mecca]

Bear Pascoe was considered a really good prospect as a blocking TE.

[carlos3652]

Eagles released CB Jack Ikegwuonu.
It's a little bit of a surprise. Ikegwuonu was a first-round talent that had knee problems, was taken in the fourth round and then had some minor legal problems that proved to be nothing. He'll almost certainly get some interest from other teams like the Bears.


Ravens released RB Cedric Peerman.
Peerman was the Ravens' sixth-round pick this year. He's a quick back with some talent but was never going to threaten the three-headed monster of Ray Rice, Willis McGahee and LeRon McClain.

[Hoover]

I like this Boone kid...

Boone, at the behest of his agent, was living in Southern California to work out and prepare for the NFL scouting combine. But on Feb. 1, he was arrested by Aliso Viejo police after they answered a disturbance call at an apartment complex. They discovered a 6-foot-8, 318-pound man jumping up and down on the hoods of cars and attempting to smash the window of a tow truck. (http://nfl.fanhouse.com/2009/06/22/49ers-alex-boone-avoids-temptation-by-not-leaving-hotel-room/)

[carlos3652]

Ravens released TE Davon Drew.
Drew was the Ravens' fifth-round pick this year. The real surprise is that Todd Heap and L.J. Smith both made it through training camp in one piece. That's called an unlucky break for Drew.

CALL DREW

Wow, you cant teach power and brute force...

[carlos3652]

Eagles released DE/OLB Bryan Smith.
The 2008 third-round pick can be called a bust. He's small and is probably better off as a linebacker in a 3-4 set.\\

Bucs released FB Jameel Cook.
Cook is a solid veteran that caught on with the Bucs in October of last season but obviously failed to impress the new regime. B.J. Askew will probably be the Bucs fullback.

Jamon Meredith?

[OnTheWarpath15]

Jamon Meredith?

Holy balls, put in the claim yesterday.

[carlos3652]

49ers waived WR Maurice Price, TE Joe Jon Finley, OLB Jay Moore, OT Joe Toledo, ILB Mark Washington, and LB Justin Roland.
Moore had the best shot to make the team in this group, but he's shown little pass-rush ability and battled injuries since being drafted in the 2007 fourth round. Finley, Roland, and Toledo could go on the practice squad.

[DaneMcCloud]

He was a fifth round pick.

It's extremely difficult to call a 5th rounder a "bust".

And Mecca was hardly the only person wanting Meredith.

Yep.

Meredith lost out in the numbers game.
Packers have solid depth all across that line.

Scott Wells and Merdith both could help this team.

[The Bad Guy]

Scott Wells was cut too?

This is like Christmas. Pioli better deliver.

With AQ Shipley being cut by the Steelers, Meredith and Wells, there is our starting right side of the line from center on over. Jesus Pioli! Start signing these dudes!

[DaneMcCloud]

Shipley's arms are too short. That's why he lasted until the 7th.

And he doesn't have to "sign" anyone.

All he's got to do is put in a waiver claim.

[The Bad Guy]

All I know is, with all the quality talent getting cut, Nicecock better not be our starting center for much longer.

[carlos3652]

Falcons waived RB Thomas Brown, WR Aaron Kelly, OT Michael Butterworth, WR Troy Bergeron, LB Robert James, and OG Jose Valdez.
Brown lost out to Jason Snelling behind Michael Turner and Jerious Norwood. Kelly has ability, but is raw and could use a year on the practice squad.

[kstater]

Shipley's arms are too short. That's why he lasted until the 7th.

Will Shields arms were supposed to be too short as well, but that worked out okay for us.

And I know they put in a waiver claim, not officially sign them to a contract.

[Reaper16]

I'm not a hysterical "CLAIM EVERYONE" kind of dude, but... some of these O-Linemen need to be claimed.

Whoa the Giants cut Rhett Bomar...ok I'd put in that claim.

[carlos3652]

FWIW Wells has not been cut, he was rumored that he would be traded

[Saccopoo]

With the state of our offensive line, I'm as pretty close to being a claim everyone kind of dude about now as one could possibly be.

[Buck]

By the way, the Chargers released Mike Goff because they had Forney. But we drafted a guy named Louis Vazquez who won the job.

AJ Smiths drafting record strikes again.

[Titty Meat]

The Chiefs should release everyone but Albert & Waters and sign Wells, Meredith, and a RT.

[The Bad Guy]

Fornay is an instant upgrade over Goff.

Meredith is a nice project type player for RT.

Hopefully the Chiefs are the ones who traded for Wells.

This line could be fixed by the end of this weekend.

The Eagles have also released LB Matt Wilhelm and TE Matt Schobel.

[Mecca]

I have this fear that the Chiefs are not going to add anyone...

[Mecca]

I'd take Ikegweonu and Booker off that Eagles list..

Booker is the perfect 3rd down RB, good receiver plays special teams can do returns.

I have this fear that the Chiefs are not going to add anyone...

Fuck you! Don't you jinx this!

Only a dumb fucking piece of shit like yourself would compare Will Shields to AQ Shipley.

What a fucking dumbass.

Oh, and FUCK OFF.

I have this fear that the Chiefs are not going to add anyone...If Carl was still here, they wouldn't. I'm not so sure now.

[Saccopoo]

Only a dumb ****ing piece of shit like yourself would compare Will Shields to AQ Shipley.

What a ****ing dumbass.

Oh, and **** OFF.

I wasn't comparing them. Just that both were rumored to have had short arms, which was your initial knock on Shipley.

Go munch a warm turd.

[carlos3652]

Saints acquired TE David Thomas from the Patriots in exchange for an undisclosed 2011 draft pick.
New England also acquired blocking TE Michael Matthews from the Giants for a late-rounder in 2011 and released Alex Smith. Thomas, 26, was banged up throughout his first two seasons, but has soft hands and can stretch the field. He's a very nice insurance policy behind starter Jeremy Shockey.

RB Keon Lattimore (undisclosed) was waived injured.

[carlos3652]

Patriots released TE Alex Smith.
Now the Eagles can get him for free. Smith was due a $1.55 million salary, which was too much for the mediocre talent. The 2005 third-round pick will probably only get the minimum on his next contract.

Bills continue offensive shakeup, release veteran RB Rhodes
Associated Press


BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Veteran running back Dominic Rhodes has been released by the Buffalo Bills, who are shaking up their offense one day after firing coordinator Turk Schonert.

Dominic Rhodes, RB

2008 Statistics
Carries: 152
Yards: 538
Touchdowns: 6
Rhodes' agent, Todd France, confirmed that his client had been released in a text message sent to The Associated Press on Saturday, hours before NFL teams are required to make their final cuts.

The Bills weren't immediately available for comment.

The move was considered a surprise as Rhodes was expected to serve as a primary backup to Fred Jackson to open the season while starter Marshawn Lynch serves an NFL-imposed three-game suspension.

The Bills' offense is in flux with quarterbacks coach Alex Van Pelt taking over play-calling duties following Schonert's dismissal.

Rhodes' departure leaves Buffalo with just two experienced running backs -- Jackson and second-year player Xavier Omon -- on its roster as the team prepares to open the season Sept. 14 at New England.

Jackson missed the final two preseason games with a sprained left wrist, but he had resumed practicing this past week. Omon didn't return after hurting his calf in a 17-6 preseason loss to the Detroit Lions on Thursday.

NFL RedZone

Watching football on Sundays will be a whole new experience with NFL Network's new channel, NFL RedZone. Find out why.
Rhodes, who won a Super Bowl with the Indianapolis Colts in 2007, was entering his ninth NFL season after signing a two-year contract as a free agent with Buffalo in April. He was due to make a base salary of $750,000 this season and $1.25 million next year.

In appearing in four of Buffalo's five preseason games, Rhodes had 19 carries for 64 yards and added four catches for 21 yards. Rhodes also returned four kickoffs for 87 yards and one lost fumble.

Rhodes' experience and versatility in the passing game were considered well-suited for the Bills' newly installed no-huddle attack, which also used running backs as receivers.

The Packers have a ton of depth on their offensive line.

He'll be claimed.

[Saccopoo]

I know. He measured in with T-Rex arms at the combine. But you can't possibly be satisfied with the job Rudy has done to this point this preseason, can you? Shipley won the whatever award for best center as a senior and he had a nice Senior Bowl. Steelers were pretty set on the OL and it was a long shot, no, an almost impossibility that he was going to make that team.

I'm just saying he's a guy that would be worth a look at least.

[TFG]

The Packers have a ton of depth on their offensive line.

Dane, you and I have both seen this kid. Something is radioactive about him. Something. You and I do not see it. We see a First Round caliber athlete at OT. There is something else there we don't see. Trust me, it is what you don't see that really makes you look stupid.

I don't think that anyone thought that the draft was a "failure" due to not choosing Meredith.

If anything, it was the lack of drafting an offensive right tackle over people like Washington, Brown and even Magee in some respects.

[BigChiefFan]

Ah Duke Robinson made the Panthers.
That's one player I was clamoring for on draft day, but hopefully we'll get to pick up somebody in FA or the waiver wire that gives us some much needed help on the O-line. I was stunned Duke fell that far on draft weekend, but it looks like he ended up impressing the Panthers enough to earn a roster spot-good for him.
