I'm sure some people wondered why he was cut including myself so when I read this last week I figured I would share it.
Period of silence for Russell - NFL - Yahoo! SportsAndrew Walter(notes), Oakland’s third-round pick in 2005, didn’t last long with the New England Patriots after being cut by the Raiders in July 2009. Another strong-armed passer, the Patriots concluded he was too big a project and released him in September.
“It was like six things he was doing wrong on every play,” said a Patriots source who also used the high school analogy. “It was impossible to coach him because there was too much to correct. … You just stood there and wondered, ‘What the heck happened to this guy?’ ”
