During Saturday's game, I was at my favorite bar having a discussion with a regular who was wearing his Ohio State jersey. I mentioned to him that Martin had impressed far more than Posey (from OSU) despite being a lower-round choice and he said "Doesn't surprise me. The guy has been a spoiled jerk the whole time he was in Columbus."
It could be that a) the time missed in college means Posey is too raw for the NFL and is going to need coaching up or b) he's really just a spoiled jerk and won't amount to anything until he decides to work for it. If the truth is b) then I'm fine with trying to put him on the PS and see if anyone else claims him. If the truth is a) then he needs to show why his potential is more important than keeping some other receiver who has busted his tail and deserves the playing time.
This franchise has cut third-rounders before (remember 2002?) so it wouldn't be a first. If Martin is a keeper, I can live with the fact that Posey is not.
