Kinda hoping he goes to the Jets. Will give Vick or Smith a good option to throw to and he is still a productive running back.

I wouldn't mind the Dolphins making a run at him. Their backfield is a dumpster fire.

Tread is running low on his tires. He's not worth more than a 3 year deal.

Doesn't surprise me. No way was he worth that contract this year.

As a Titans fan, it's kind of bittersweet. He was amazing for us his first few years and has still had decent production throughout. But, he needs to go. The relationship with him and the Titans is stale. Best of luck to him

The most aggravating part is I believe his decline of production had more to do with the absolutely shitting play calling and offensive schematic by ex-coach Munchak and his OC(s) Chris Palmer then Dowell Loggains.

So glad we have Ken. I wanted one more year with Chris to see what Ken could do with him.

absolutely. Fisher knew what CJ was and how to use him. Munch is an old school guy who tried to make CJ into a power RB.

I'm not upset that he's going to be gone, but would have liked to see him get 1 year with Wiz

I could honestly see this. Sean Payton would have some serious fun.

I think most agree with this but it wasn't worth what we would've had to pay him. Screw that shite.

it's only going to clear up 2-4 million to release him. we're not over the cap so we could afford it.

Jumbo,

You make a good point with the cap but I'm over the whole thing. He's been great for us but it is just time to move on. This draft is loaded with RBs who could be productive. If we sign anyone of Hyde, Hill, Andre Williams, Tre Mason, or Freeman I'd be happy. Plus we can get most of those in 3/4 round, leaving us opportunity to pick up OT and MLB/DE in 1st and 2nd


And we just asked Wimbley to take a pay cut. Not surprised considering he only had 3 sacks last year. Is a good fit in Hortons hybrid 3-4 though.
