Raiders waived TE Clive Walford.
A formerly buzzed about third-rounder, Walford's career was derailed by a 2016 ATV accident. He caught just nine passes in 13 games last season, falling behind Jared Cook and Lee Smith on the depth chart before a concussion landed him on injured reserve in December. Going on 27, Walford and his intriguing skill-set will still earn a second look, perhaps even on waivers


___________

If he's still available on waivers, his salary this year would be about $822k, so just adds a few hundred thousand to the cap. Good catch percentage, not exciting, may not have much left after the accident - but the Rams will likely need another TE, and he could be cut for nothing if it doesn't work out in training camp. Perhaps the Rams should take a look, since he'll be cheap and at one time looked like a good youngish TE

He’s a good blocker with good qualities to potentially be a good receiver. Not elite speed for a TE but fast enough... the problem is, since his ATV accident has in 2016, he hasn’t been the same player. I’m all for taking a flier and seeing how it works out
