Title: Big Name Players Don't Survive NFL Cut Post by: Marshal Dillon on August 27, 2012, 07:03:07 PM Very interesting and somewhat sad for those who showed great promise.
Quote Vince Young was waived Monday morning by the Buffalo Bills shortly after the team finalized a trade with Seattle to acquire quarterback Tarvaris Jackson. Quote Seattle tackle Alex Barron: The No. 19 overall pick in the 2005 draft, Barron committed too many penalties for five seasons as a St. Louis Rams starter. The Dallas Cowboys learned that the hard way in the 2010 season-opener after acquiring Barron in a trade. http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/terrell-owens-donte-stallworth-billy-cundiff-big-name-players-who-cant-make-cut-082712/ :dog: Title: Re: Big Name Players Don't Survive NFL Cut Post by: XBAMA on August 27, 2012, 07:12:20 PM Quote Vince Young was waived Monday morning by the Buffalo Bills Vince Young waived = suicide watch in effect on Shaggy Bevo forum :dunno: Title: Re: Big Name Players Don't Survive NFL Cut Post by: Marshal Dillon on August 27, 2012, 07:18:43 PM The Vince Young situation is a prime example of poor recruiting and knowing who they were drafting. The word out of Texas was Young could not comprehend offensive plays, so Texas had 5 basic plays they used with Young. Plus, he scored like a 6 on the intelligence test they give at the NFL Combine. All kinds of red flags but the Titans took a risk and used a very high draft pick on him. Amazing.
