I am just as shocked as you are Donovann..........I guess he will go to a 3-4 team so he can use his power and weight....I guess Dallas could sign him and back up Bradie James and Akin Ayodele......Because Bobby Carpenter will more than likely go to LOLB to backup Anthony Spencer.

McNabb.......I really think that it is time for you to try to move on. I know about 1 Million Bear's fans and players who wouldn't mind having you. The Vikings, Falcons, Jags, Bucs..........A lot of teams.......

^The Bucs would like every quarterback.

The bears have a QB. Mcnabb is injury prone.

No KRB,
The Bears have someone pretending to be a QB.

I was shocked too. The Bears have a quarterback, yes. A good one? No.

So a QB, a player on the offense wants answers from the front office as to why a player was released from the defense. When did he become part owner and think that he has the right to know why the front office did it? I think he just needs to worry about staying healthy and keeping HIS job.

eagles appear to be moving to free some salary cap for next season and the year after

Not so pw. The Eagles are way under the cap, as always. Unfortunately, because I would prefer them to spend all they can.

While I wouldn't grace my backside with anything associated with this team, I must say I too am shocked at this move by the eagles. What good does freeing salary cap room do now that the draft and whatnot is over? This is a move that should have been made, if at all, at the end of the season, not before it. Now they are short a seasoned veteran, albiet and eagle, and who do they really have that can fill the void? It does not appear as if they are looking for someone at the moment and I have heard nothing of other teams looking at Trotter so maybe my questions are misplaced...I'd just like some answers too...

The Bears have a QB who is really not a whole lot less injury prone than McNabb (injured 3/4 of his seasons in the NFL).

I think Rex will have a decent season, though not good enough to silence the critics, who will scream and rant every time he does anything wrong, but I like McNabb. I'd take him.

It does seem dumb to release Trotter and get nothing for him. There wasn't any news that they were shopping him. Surely someone would have taken a proven veteran for a late-round draft pick or something.

McNabb wants answers. I want a bacon egg and cheese on a genuine NY bagel.

Now the Eagles have a bunch of young LBs playing out of position and Spikes, who has some injury issues. The Eagle LB corp hasn't been great since William Thomas, Byron Evans, and Seth Joyner. This move doesn't help that.

urnze i feel your pain...

jaz, "The Eagles are way under the cap" sorta proves my point.

Jeremiah must not have liked the Chunky soup.

The are always way under the cap. They were way under the cap before Trotter was cut. I don't think it was a salary dump.

It was a mental dump by Reid and company.

Does the team mom count against the salary cap?
