    Instead of making a separate thread for each big name player that is released, I figured this would be a nice way to keep things organized...And here we go...



    1. Seattle Seahawks to release Sidney Rice:

    I'm sure you can add TE Fred Davis to this list. The Redskins TE has violated the NFL's drug policy 3 times and just got nabbed yesterday with a DUI. It's sad to think he could've retrieved a 4th or 5th round draft pick last off season.

    lol are you kidding me? Redskin fans want this guy so bad. London Fletcher has left and the guy London was grooming to take his spot we don't believe has big enough feet to fill those shoes. We'd love to get D'Qwell to hold us over for 2-3 more years until we find THAT guy.

    He's a top 5 ILB IMO. But the dropoff from 5 to 25 isn't that great at that position.

    That's hard to say considering the texans haven't even been able to find an average ilb to play with cushing for a couple years now

    I heard that Roethlisberger gets a lot of release from non-consenting girls.

    Because it hasn't been a priority. They refuse to allocate resources - money and/or draft picks - to the ILB2, because it's a relatively unimportant position. It's not as if there haven't been good free agents and draft prospects available. Not many teams out there with 2 great ILB's, the ones that do enjoy that luxury have a much more favorable cap situation compared to the Texans.

    Eagles release Jason Avant

    I guess with the ascension of Cooper this past season and the return of Maclin they viewed him as expendable.
