Default Willie Middlebrooks...........CUT!

Quote:
To pare down to the NFL mandatory 53-man roster, the 49ers waived 15 players on Saturday. The 49ers waived six veterans, five first-year players and four rookies.

The 49ers waived veterans DE Tony Brown, LB Ray Wells, CB Willie Middlebrooks, G Scott Peters, CB Rayshun Reed and LB Richard Seigler, first-year players CB Allan Amundson, T Brendan Darby, C Norm Katnik, T Tim Provost and LB Matt Yates, and rookies FB Tony Ficklin, WR Marcus Maxwell, RB Bobby Purify and CB Daven Holly.

A total of 16 new players made the 49ers final roster with nine of the team’s 11 2005 draft picks, two rookie free agents and five veteran free agents.

Wow.

Pissed that we couldnt snag Woods though.

Its official, we got Engleburger for free.

Glad to see Dorsey make the team.

Sorta surprised that Purify got cut.

Me, too. I did only see the one game, but he looked really solid. Very fluid, strong runner with good instincts.

I'm glad there are so many teams moving to the 3-4. Shanny got good 4-3 guys for pretty much nothing. I love how "The Plan" turned out.

Middlebust was running with their first team too. If he can't crack that lineup he'd best start eyeing the want ads.

Maybe he can get a job as a trainer. He's spent the better part of the past few years in the training room. They should give him a degree in that field.

Anyone that takes issue with my stance that with few exceptions, our drafts have been literally horrible. Do you think Shoate would of made it if we didn't hide him on IR?

I wouldnt be opposed to bringing Willie back. We have basically 3 spots open with Renteria, Mawombo and Veal. Those guys are just space that is going to be cut when we bring in people from the waiver wires or trades.

We have lost Kenoy, Herndon, Deltha, and have three corners on IR. Roc is fractured mentally. I bring back willie and work him as a reserve safety/nickle.

If, like Wabbit said, we passes damaged goods with a bad knee, then I pass, that might be the story. I think we might of passed a Barnum and Bailey on that Circus called the Niner's and have absolutely no intention of bringing in Willie.

Bringing back Willie in exchange for cutting Roc free is the greatest idea and opportunity... ever.

Roc has looked brutally unsuccessful this year. Make Willie a ST slave.

Hand me that damn roster, Mock can make the cuts, I'm ruthless, but I don't throw treasure out with trash. I'll be surprised if either Davis, or even Pierce gets thru waivers. Honestly, I am thinking Pierce WANTED to be cut so he could go back to MLB.

We better announce a few new signings tommorow or I'm postal.

Calm down mock, it's all part of "The Plan".

Sweet. Bring him back!!!

He would add depth to our team. Who knows, maybe we can throw him into the safety position.

Depth. Depth. Depth.

Why would anybody want to bring him back, or did everybody just forget about how he got burned against the Saints last year?

Willie is a really good Special teams player and can even sub at Safety in a pinch. We can get him on the cheap now too.
