I Think we needed Marshall and he was playing good. I bet he makes it with another team. He was one of my favorite players.

I think we needed him while we had him, but as the rest of our group came into their own he became superfluous. I like the guy and wish him well, but I have no problem with letting him go.

Two words: David Moore... 'nuff said --- I also have a feeling that BM didn't like not starting and especially (as most once 'star' WR's) didn't like the lack of targets. Good move. Who's coming off IR to fill the roster spot?

Agreed.

Not sure if we needed the slot for Kendricks or what but you always have to weigh the other side and in this case, Brandon's side came up a little light. I have no ill will toward him or what he did while he was here.

I don't understand why we didn't trade him for a draft pick we could have gotten a 5th or 6th pick for him. Perhaps just wanted to let him choose a team.

He might end up back with us after all.
It seems that with Moore playing so well, a spot on ST opened up to keep Moore fresh.
That meant someone had to be cut and since Marshall wasn't getting much playing time, he was the odd man out.

The trading deadline was Oct. 31st, which is why we waited until then to release him. Apparently no one was interested in him.
