lmao, we released the OL that we picked up yesterday.
So, pretty much that was just a waste of money.

Revolving door continues
Tuesday, September 5th, 2006 by Kevin Seifert
Offensive lineman Steve Edwards must have set a record for fewest hours as a Viking. The team released him today – ONE day after signing him – to make room for free agent linebacker Marquis Cooper.
Cooper spent the past two seasons with Tampa Bay, where current Vikings defensive coordinator Mike Tomlin was the defensive backs coach. We’ll let you know if he makes to practice tomorrow.
In another move, defensive end Jayme Mitchell passed through waivers and was signed to the practice squad.

He was on the team for less time than Jeff George was on the Raiders.

But you had no links and it's from a different media source.
That's what happens here, a story breaks and the media-take/discussions follow.
Good signing, he did well for Tampa.He is infact pretty solid on special teams and he will help us out depth wise.He knows the system, and I think the only reason Tampa bay got rid of him is becuz they got alot more younger LB's in there, playing for less money.And thier on the same skill level, so they dumped him.
What the hell did Edwards do to get cut that fast, Show up with a Philly Sux T-shirt on ?
;D
Just kidding.
I am glad to see them shoring up the defense.
