Jets waiving 2012 second rounder WR Stephen Hill.
Another high round disappointment.

I really liked Hill after the combine. He looked really good there. Not to say that I thought that he would be the next Megatron. Just that he could be a pretty good WR. Not a just under 300 yards a year WR.

As much as it signals past failures, it was totally the right move for this year's Jets team. I would have rathered they continue wasting a roster spot on him.

Remember when everyone was comparing him to Randy Moss pre-draft?

His measurables are fantastic but he has feet for hands. If he ever corrects that he could be good, but in the mean time it turns out you need to be able to catch.

He looked really good while catching at the combine. Turns out that he quickly forgot how to do that soon after.

Also can't run routes except for "run straight forward, look for ball, drop ball."

I'd give him look see.

Big LSU rookie safety Craig Loston released.

Convert him to a scatback?

Seahawks cut NFLPA president Eric Winston

Seabirds cut NFLPA president Eric Winston.

Were he a Pat, all media hell would ensue

Bucs cut S Major Wright and QB Mike Kafka.

Major Wright is a interesting player. I think he's as good as every safety we have (except for McCourty) and if he's able to get back to 2012, he's a very good upgrade

Hill was a combine freak but had at best a pedestrian regular season. The word "raw" was used a lot. As a prior poster noted. He couldn't run routes n even his straight end speed was nothing to write home about

As nobody here would have expected on April 27, 2012, 48th overall pick Tavon Wilson has stuck with the Pats longer than 53rd overall pick Devon Still.

...and #51 Jerel Worthy, of course. Drafting is hard.

Brandon Coleman released.

Browns released QB Connor Shaw. We showed some interest in him pre-draft. PS QB perhaps?

Texans might be all over him.

I loved CB Leon McFadden in last years draft - cut by the Browns today. Scouting cornerbacks sucks!

@RapSheet: Drama building in Nola over roster spot of veteran CB Champ Bailey, who got a signing bonus of $500K. Team may love rookie Brian Dixon more

If cut, could be a safety option

@caplannfl: #Bengals cut: S Danieal Manning, OT Will Svitek.

Another safety option

Jets CB Dimitri Patterson and Saints CB Champ Bailey lost their jobs

Goodbye Daxton Swanson.
