    sprain, not tear for lefty?

    You have to consider cutting Leftwich with an injury settlement. I'm not sure it makes much sense to keep him on the roster at the expense of someone who can help us now. Even if he is good in 3 weeks, I don't want him to come in and start without practice and on a gimpy knee.
    2013 Draft
    1 Ezekial Ansah OLB BYU 6’5 271 (sky high potential)
    2 Khaseem Greene ILB Rutgers 6’1 241 (cat quick, explosive hitter)
    3 Steadman Bailey WR WVU 5’10 193 (fantastic route runner)
    4 Le’Veon Bell RB Michigan St 6’1 230 (Good fit for zone scheme)
    5 J. J. Wilcox SS Ga Southern 6’ 213 (athletic, fluid in coverage)
    6 Omoregie Uzzi OG Georgia Tech 6’3 302 (quick, zone gem)
    7 Micah Hyde CB Iowa 6’ 197 (rangy corner with speed)
    7 Vinston Painter OT Virginia Tech 6’4 305 (athletic OL project)

    A sprain is a tear, just not all the way. Just sounds better to say sprained.
