He went from pretty good to really bad in a flash.

I wonder if the injury had longer lasting impact than he was ready to reveal?

I think we'll see more of this with players who've got big contracts but have fallen off.

I still think we'll see Jamarcus Russell cut, and maybe a couple other surprises.

Vick is under contract, so he'd have to be cut, or traded.

This was a move to cut salary and let them get the young guy on the field.

Fox8news in Cleveland reporting Anderson to be released tomorrow. A QB going from Pro Bowl too getting cut in 3 years. Similar to Jake.

I'd rather have Morris than Vick.

The right move for Carolina. They were going nowhere with Delhomme at QB anymore. He was just awful this past year.

Good move, but that's a pretty big hit. Hey, had to pay it either way. Might as well move on.

Anyone remember how bad Warner was in NYG and everyone was calling him washed up and done?

What happened to that guy?

Delhomme is done. I am sorry. Warner got benched because they had another QB (Manning) they wanted to play. Warner wasn't good by any stretch of the imagination, but his benching had more to do with the fact that management wanted to hand the reigns to Manning.

Plus Warner wasn't a good fit for that offense. You could tell that. It is different with Delhomme. He's been in Carolina for years and has had success. Now it just looks like he is lost.

Warner was a turnover machine in NYG from what I remember.

Not saying Delhomme will be great, but I'd like to see another team give him a real shot.

Delhomme not only visited with Cleveland today. After the visit the Browns sent him to team doctors for a physical. It seems that he will become a Cleveland Brown.

Going to the brown's doctor's office has been the kiss of death for a few players in the past. Be careful Jake.

He will get staff infection within a week of being there.
