    For a shutdown corner on the cheap, he could give the flag the finger during the anthem for all I care. However the article gives the sense that there is more too it. Outbursts on the field can't be tolerated, though. You get the sense from reading that article that there is a lot more going on, and the Chiefs decided they couldn't trust him or count on him. That would be a legit reason for passing.
    Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!

    he's a young maturing player. no where near his prime. he'll settle down as time goes on. the Rams recognized this. they're clearly in win-now mode. i think Pettine could reel him in. lol

    Peters can't tackle and doesn't even attempt to try half the time. Happy he plays for someone else.

    tackling just gets you hurt. just ask King. you can't take away the other teams best guy and get ints if you're hurt.

    Now some veteran trimming is probably wise. But even in this day of ever increasing cap numbers, you can still go too far. Poor Bretsky favorite Brooks Reed might have to change teams again.

    PS. Cowboys still trying to rebuild their defense from the last purge.

    Top 101 FAs. Kyle Fuller anyone?

    http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300...tops-the-board


    Cardinals might not pick up Honey Badgers' option.

    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    if Mathieu comes free the Packers have to take shot...Fuller too.

    Taylor Gabriel would be a good fit. His production was down some in '17 compared to '16 so I think he could be pretty cheap. But he gives us speed and a little more versatilty offensively. Plus a different return option. Basically a more polished version of Davis.

    Michael Bennett anyone?

    vaughn mcclure @vxmcclure23

    Source tells me the Falcons are one of multiple teams discussing a Michael Bennett trade with the Seahawks. Nothing imminent but will be interesting to see how it all unfolds. http://www.espn.com/espn/now?nowId=21-40017183-4

    looking back over his history, i guess it was just college, he actually got kicked off the team and had to sit out a year

    sounds like he got his shit together after that though

    2 season ending injuries in his career so far will drop his price. Maybe

    Richard Sherman has big meeting today with brass for Seahawks. Coming off two achilles surgeries and owed $11 mil, he seems to be getting released, maybe after a token effort to trade him.

    Why, so he can point out all the social injustice in GB? Keep that POS far away from the Packers.
