Meachem is expected to be cut despite having a fully guaranteed $5 million base salary. He's played exclusively with the second-team offense in training camp and has just three catches for 59 yards through three preseason games. The Chargers are set to move forward with Seyi Ajirotutu as their No. 5 receiver. Dan DePalma (shoulder) and Mike Willie (knee) were placed on injured reserve Tuesday.

Given Sean Payton's ability to turn lance Moore and devery Henderson into legitPlaymakers, a high pick with meachem's skill set having meachem's career is baffling

is it? People hate this stigma placed on colleges.

I cant off the top of my head in the last 15 years think of one true playmaking wide receiver from Tennessee at the next level.

Donte Stallworth? Meachem? Markus Nash?

People thought Da'Rick Rodgers would be good, and hes already cut, Justin Hunter has been less than impressive for the titans, (he was pick 34 by the way) and people think Cordarelle Patterson is going to be a best, we will see.

Unless you're going to let him run go routes all day, you're just not going to get much out of him, even if healthy.

Looks like the Patriots are letting go of both Daniel Fells and Jake Ballard, both TE's.

That's from Rappoport and some other local honk.

[Mr. Laz]

looks like we need to add a quality TE and CB


hoping a few good players get released that we can grab

Trent Edwards, Edwin Williams among Bears cuts

The list of former Bears continues to grow.

Quarterback Jordan Palmer, tackle J’Marcus Webb and safety Brandon Hardin were among the early names to emerge as cuts in Chicago and Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports that four other players have been told that they’ll be released. Quarterback Trent Edwards and offensive lineman Edwin Williams are the two biggest names of that group.

Edwards signed with the Bears a couple of weeks ago along with Palmer following the injury suffered by prospective third quarterback Matt Blanchard. Edwards played one game with the Eagles in 2012, his first game action since splitting the 2010 season with the Jaguars and Bills. The former Buffalo first-round pick may get more looks from quarterback-needy teams, but he may also be at the end of the line of his NFL career.

With Palmer and Edwards gone, Jay Cutler and Josh McCown are the only quarterbacks on the Chicago roster. That makes them a team to watch when it comes to adding a quarterback in the next few days.

Williams started 12 games for the Bears over the last three years and played in 14 others as a reserve on the interior of the line. The arrivals of Matt Slauson and Kyle Long likely contributed to his departure, although Williams’ experience will probably put him on the radar of teams with needs on the line.

The Bears are also cutting ties with linebacker Jerry Franklin and wide receiver Brittan Golden.

Garay would make a good backup NT

[mcaj22]

holy lol Stanzi survived by doing nothing

Jags cut Scott and Kafka

wow

[JoeyChuckles]

I thought we would hear about more cuts today, even thought the deadline is 24 hours. I would love to see Tebow cut, and please don't bring him in for a look.

[Mr_Tomahawk]

Yup Stanzi survived...future Jags Franchise QB.

Hope he plays week 1.

[Al Bundy]

Danny Noble was cut, he looked like the best of the TE's that Tampa had.

[Mother****erJones]

We gota get a TE

Those were some awful days indeed.
