:up yeah that was great. thanks for posting that.
Just heard the Raiders cut Jeff Garcia.
I like Gradkowski, but Garcia is better than both him and Frye, don't like that move as a football fan, love the move as a Chiefs fan.
Raiders also cut their 4th round pick, Slade Norris. Though unlike the 6th round pick they cut before even giving him a contract, at least he was a Raider for some period of time.
Chiefs finished their move to 53... among the cuts were Brady-knee-killer Pollard and the injured Zach Thomas (who denied reports he's retiring, may have been a ploy to be cut so he got a little $$). Chiefs still have 4 QBs on the roster... Cassel, Thigpen, Croyle and Gutierrez.
Probably be a lot more movement as teams shuffle/cut players to make room for castaways from other teams.
Well with that Raider shaky offensive line (a requirement for being a team in the AFC West unless you're called the Chargers I guess), the backup QBs could become pretty important. We'll see though, Al may be in love with some of the other QBs that became available today like DJ Shockley or Chase Daniel.
Thigpen was rumored to have almost been sent to Jacksonville at one point, but they've now traded for Luke Mccown and sent an undisclosed pick to Tampa for him.
Roid rage? I'm guessing that's commissioner Goodell on the line for Merriman. I wouldn't be surprised if his season doesn't begin until October.
Pats trade Richard Seymour to Raiders - BostonHerald.com
Can't believe they traded Seymour, can't believe they got a top 10 pick for a guy in the final year of his contract.
The situation raises an interesting point regarding the lengths to which someone can or should go to stop someone else from driving drunk. In this case, Merriman will claim that he did not cross the line, and the other persons who were at his home are expected to testify to that end.
AJ Feely to be cut. The Lions have traded QB OConnel to the Jets for undisclosed compensation.

This guy has the Lions going to the Super Bowl.
What do you think- gutsy, stupid, going out on a limb?
If he causes more trouble, the Broncos have said that they will pursue an escalating scale of discipline.
