So apparently Dumervil agreed to a reduction in salary, but didnt send the contract in until after the deadline, so the Donks cut him.

Apparently they would have owed him more money if they waited, and they didnt trust that he would agree to it, so they cut him.

I find it hilarious that they had to cut a guy with 20.5 sacks in the past 2 seasons. They will have to scramble to sign someone like Dwight Freeney and hope he hasnt dropped off too much. Definitely good news for us ... unless Dumervil signs with the Chargless or Faiders.

There's a saying..."Job ain't over until the paperwork's done."

He'll end up with NE. Count on it.

Because of the Welker deal?

Perhaps, but New England needs some kind of pass rush and Josh McDaniel knows the Denver Broncos roster well. Not to mention Dumerville was a beast for Josh when he coached there.
