Packer Cuts

[falco]

I'm a little stunned they cut Brewster. They must see a WR they like on the waiver wire. After last's years debacle they can't possibly be thinking of only having 4 receivers. They better not have to sign Taco Wallace to fill in again.

We lost to the vikings in the playoffs 2 years ago because Sherman thought 4 receivers was enough (I know that wasn't the only reason, but...)

BOB HARLAN, Buy this man an F'ing suit!.....

They must have cut his clothing allowance at 1265....

I think he's going for that Belichick game-day sweat look. I guess if you look at it like that, this is one of his game days.

Rogers broke his collarbone 2 years in a row and the Lions were pissed because he was always hurt. He smoked some weed I guess but they could write into his contract that if he gets suspended he voids the contract. The games I saw when he was healthy he looked scary good. Plus, I'm sure he'd love to play the Lions twice a year.

Dean, you gotta have priorities, you know? I just don't get it. Why look like a slob? He's gotta have a closet in his office. Couldn't he spend 5 minutes putting on a freakin' polo shirt and a pair of dockers?

if any team picks up charles rogers off waivers in the 1st 24 hours after he was cut they have to assume the balance of his salary. if no one claims him in 24 hours you can sign him to a new contract.

If I recall, his contract is palatable. I'd think if you had a desire to sign him, you could assume his contract and not risk losing him when he is free to go wherever he wants to go.

I'm not advocating him coming here, but SOMEONE is coming here, that's for sure.

i like the receivers this season alot better already, no more taco wallace or rod gardner..

He's in the fourth year of his rookie contract. Shouldn't his salary be managable by now?

Well, Bellichek is a slob. I swear that guy looks like a car burglar most of the time. Would it really surprise anyone if the Boston police pulled him out of a dark alley in that damn hooded sweatshirt?....

[packers11]

yes.. TT has someone in mind, having 4 WR is weird..... Im still suprised they let go Davenport... I like him over Herron

Yeah, I know he looks like he just came from a workout at the Y or doing some yard work.

Yea but he was a top 5 pick I think.....I bet he makes BIG bucks....

Well, Herron puzzles me as well. They definitely like him. I haven't seen it, yet, but maybe it is because he can play some fullback and he doesn't mind?

Davenport basically said he wouldn't play fullback, so who knows? davenport was no great loss, per se. I agree that he was better than Herron, but what the hell do we know?

[MJZiggy]

I think Davenport would have had a better chance if he could have kept his tail end out of the back of the "injury cart."
