Donnie Avery, who had 100 catches in 2008-2009 before missing last season with an injury, was released by the Rams. Bet you Pat Shurmer's all over him.

Brandon Jackson on IR and out for the year?

Terrific.

Not caring who saw what of the guy but he's regarded as one of the very best blitz pick up backs in football as well as an excellent receiver out of the backfield. That hurts.

Does this mean Armond Smith made the effing team?

11 rookies. Wow. See why they signed nothing this offseason. Find some cheap talent or identify those holes.

Remember when we were all keeping our fingers crossed that Coye Francies was going to provide the D-Back help the Browns needed?

Unfortunately, I do.

Jarrett Brown had tweeted that he made the practice squad yesterday. That twitter page is now gone.
