I agree he is overrated, but he would have been an easy upgrade over any of those guys I listed. While pats struggled, I don't think he was the main reason for it either.

I don't know that he's an upgrade over Williams.

But more importantly, he wouldn't start over Whitner at SS or Goldson and Smith at FS, so can he contribute on ST? I think Spillman is a better ST guy and Jones was drafted specifically for ST, so I would assume he's better than Meriweather as well.

While I agree he is overrated, I have a hard time saying he is so overrated, that he wouldn't push for a starting spot here. That makes me feel like our guys are being overrating, cause I'm honestly not THAT impressed by them.

Whitner wouldn't be challenged, but I think FS has a good amount of uncertainty. Neither Goldson or Smith have lived up to their potential IMO. Of course I want to give them a chance to do it, but if we could have got merriweather at a respectable price, then I'd have no problem cutting one of the ST guys go, to let him compete. I honestly disagree he couldn't beat out williams though. Williams showed promise at one point, but that seems to be behind him.

I'll admit I didn't watch him this off season though, maybe he looked horrible? Either way he is a bear now, so I'm not interested in putting to much into this.

Like we said, initial rosters are not final rosters. RT @RichCimini: Jets waive Maybin, Tevaseu, Trufant, place McElroy on IR.

Looks like the Rams are going to pick up Wragge, that must have left Seattle furious.

My paranoia says it isn't such a big deal to lose guys to division rivals this year because with a new offense and defense they won't know them as well as they would have in the past.

However, with Harbaugh's offense there's probably a lot more to it after a month of practice than there was after a year+ of Singletary's "scheme" (I use the word scheme very loosely and generously).

Arizona and Jets also put in waiver claims for former Patriots WR Brandon Tate, who was awarded to Cincinnati.
