Default Chiefs Release CB Stanford Routt. Any Interest?

I don't know a lot about his capabilities but he's just been waived by the Chiefs. What really peaked my interest was this from his scouting card:

Quote:
He is most effective up in a press alignment where he can use his length and long arms to disrupt the receiver on his release.
If we really are in "all in" mode is he worth looking at?

Holy crap. That's a huge surprise. If Pioli and Crennel did this I imagine they will communicate to BB why. I'm sure there's a huge buyer beware behind this.

Chiefs waived Stanford Routt to make room for Shaun Smith, Romeo references "relationship" w/ Routt not progressing. Interesting.

Depends on what Romeo meant by the bolded portion...

They waived him to sign DT Shaun Smith to help shore up the depth at DE with Glenn Dorsey's nagging in jury. Waiving a starter who just signed a 3 year ~$20 million contract for a depth guy is a huge tell that this is a bit more than just performance related. And if I recall from Romeo's days in Cleveland, he's pretty tolerant with locker room imbeciles so Routt must have really screwed up.

He's certainly worth looking at. With a contract as fat as his he's definitely going to pass through the waiver wire.

Weird. They gave Routt a good deal this offseason (3 years about $20 million) and hyped him as the Brandon Carr replacement. N0w he is cut 8 games later.

SIGN THE BEAST!

Routt, Talib and Dennard playing Nickel? One of the worst secondaries to a very good one in the space of a bye week!

It is probably something very bad that he has done off the field to be cut this early. I think that BB should talk to Pioli and Crennel about him and see whats up and then take him in for a work out if it isn't too bad. But I gotta say, with that contract and cut this early, it seems like it is pretty bad. There gotta be some big red flag behind this. But still, worth taking a look at!

Talented player, but whatever he did must be really serious in order for him to be cut loose and for RAC to say what he did.
