This "bust" doesn't remind me of Schwartz so much, but more like Callaway or Gordon (I know Gordon wasn't a bust on the field). WE took a third-round gamble on Calloway and a second (supplemental) on Grodon. But those guys seemed to have major question marks coming out of college regarding possible legal and playing effort issues.

I can agree, Peen. We need to add more to hedge our bets. I won'y miss Winfrey; he is a flyer who failed. It was a risky gamble, but it is over. This kind of roster triage is a necessity. First, stop the bleeding. Getting rid of numbskulls who insist on failure as a lifestyle despite chances should be gone. When I think back on somme of the injury & illness plagues we have had, we need insurance to cover up a weak spot and still be able to compete.

PW was a liability with no change in sight; his trend was a downward spiral. We won't miss his production much and his headaches even less. .02

with the signing of Watson, it's a safe bet that we don't value character haha

But I agree, especially with the fringe type guys

Indeed.

I don't even think it was that much of a gamble. He was a 4th rounder. The reality is most of those guys don't amount to much. I would call it a calculated risk. We knew the guy had issues, but also felt he had the potential be the value of a 2nd rounder.
