I have to believe some of these guys got the Zack Kline treatment; they were told they were not in the future plans. That would make sense with Rodgers, who was a fish out of water in this offense. Kam Jackson? Outside of the three pick fUCLA game, what did he REALLY do? I was really unimpressed with him outside of that small sample. Moala? Much the same; many games you'd be hard pressed to find him. Fortt? Again, never healthy enough to really make much of an impact. Tags? Freakin' turnstile at left tackle and unusable at guard. (Yeah I know he's not in the draft, but I'm just positing on why some guys are outta here).
If we look dispassionately (hard for us die-hard Bear fans to do I know) at the truth... the team disintegrated under Tedford and clearly is lacking in talent and drive. I think I agree with trying to clear out the cancerous malaise of the end of JT's term, but I worry that it could, believe it or not, get worse before it gets better. I pray I am wrong... but we'll find out soon enough. Sonny will NEED that 3rd ranked Pac-12 class to have a shot at changing my mind.

Tags is the only one that I agree with. The rest of the players were starters and would've gotten playing time for sure and I think you have totally ignored their contributions because they're largely masked by our greater spectre of a terrible, terrible last season.
