I know RB is the most vulnerable and punishing position in sports, but this is the fastest fall off I can ever remember.

But Alexander can't do anything other than run, so unless you are using him as your feature back you won't get anything out of him. No special teams, no third down blocking. And when you factor in that he has clearly lost a step or 9, and that he is by all accounts not the greatest locker room guy (remember when he accused Holmgren of sabotaging his career for not giving him a goal line carry at the end of the year?) I can see why teams are reluctant to bring him in. If you are Cincinatti do you really want him whining behind the scenes about how much better he is than Chris Perry? If you are Pittsburgh do you let him within 100 miles of your team?
All that being said, If I had to guess I would say he'll find his way onto a roster by the end of the year.
