MattM Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 A bit surprised about the Bryant cut by the Pats*--he and Webster both got the ax before the season. Pretty funny, too, considering how thin they are at the position. Teams may be able to rack up some good yards on them through the air this season.....
