This was an article on extremeskins.com/breaking news. I'm assuming that since no one else is talking about this, then it means that article must have come out on april fools, so it was just a joke. Anyone ever hear of anything like that?
LOL. You're thinking of this

I guess ES linked to it, you gotta stop taking ES so seriously.

Also, techinically, we "released" Mark Brunell, but the way we did it, we were still able to get a 7th round Compensatory pick for him, as if he were a FA - is there any way the same could apply to how we handled Taylors contract?

I realize both those thoughts represent nothing more than grasping at straws, but it would be nice if we got some sort of compensation for that loser.
I don't believe we released Brunell
