He was not waived....as a vet he gets a clean release. So he didn't go through the waiver process.That was fast!

Jones is gone and the Rams will move on ...
Interesting
Yes, McVay said everyone has to earn their position every year. I don't think it can get much clearer. He thought he had his position and he should get paid and poof he is gone.After listening to the McVay interview and reading between the lines or just listening to his lines it seems it came down to Jones not practicing a whole lot. Kept talking about availability and practicing consistently. I know Jones has had a knee issue but I wonder if they felt he was milking it a bit too much due to wanting a new contract. This is just my conjecture and we might never know. But definitely seems like they were just frustrated with however Jones was going about his business this offseason.

Oh man! You do NOT want to piss this guy off. He killed his own family when things went against him.

"Multiple" is such a cliche.. but.. yeah.. I see this defense being very multiple.I expect to see a lot more of 3 interior linemen, 2 edge rushers, 5 DB's and one ILB. With Turner and Fiske they have to ability to collapse the pocket and not allow QB's to step up as much. The edges just have to make sure they contain the mobile quarterbacks and not let them get outside to make plays.
I'm also one who believes that McVay had a lot bigger hand in the defense than people knew during Staley's year. I remember something about McVay not being as involved as he wanted during the Wade Philipps years. He wanted to be more involved with the defense when he chose Staley. I think that will be the case with Shula. We saw what a Staley defense looked like when he became head coach. Not very good."Multiple" is such a cliche.. but.. yeah..

A lot of national guys expect a drop off on D with the loss of Donald and Raheem.
I'm one of Raheem's bigger supporters on here... and don't see it. I think Shula is likely one of those perfectly timed promotions. I also expect him to build appreciably on last year's defense. They're gonna steal stuff that Baltimore did, for sure.

McSnead know they can’t roll with Reeder/Rozeboom on first team defense for the duration of the season. They will be used to fill in initially but I bet there will be a heavy emphasis on integrating Speights/Hummel and scheming 5 DBs.I am from Delaware and went to UD at the same time as Troy Reeder so I root for the guy… BUT him playing significant time scares the hell out of me. I just don’t think he’s an NFL starting LB. He should only be depth…. Yikes!
that's a spook story that criminals tell their kids at night.
