    Yeah but I fully support the pick. It had a pretty good chance of working out, it just didn't. Miller has the moves and speed, he just doesn't have the size or the hands and never developed them.

    I was on board with 2 of those picks, Miller and Nix, but once I heard about Nix's knees, I changed my mind about him.

    Damn, there's the first one that legit surprises me. I thought he was solid enough to keep a backup job.

    This is how you know the team has gotten significantly better, whether it just be staying healthy or what not. Tough decisions. This is a different team. Wish Q the best though, he deserves another shot in NFL.

    Damn changes are a comin

    Lechler - Man what a bummer but I understand why the team did this
    Braxton Miller - Writings been on the wall. Never made an impact in his 2+ years
    Stephen Anderson - Writing was also on the wall with the TE's the team drafted
    Quesenberry - Kinda surprised by this, thought they would keep him as a backup
