Why would they resign him? They only brought him back last year out of desperation. I didn't want him back last year, I certainly don't want him back this year.

I am really liking the personnel decisions so far this year, with the minor quibble that I think they overpaid Crosby. All the guy I have been wanting gone seem to be finally on their way out. It makes me optimistic for the coming season.

Crosby has been the only FA they have signed... (not counting UDFAs)
I think they need to sign another FB... at the very least.
If Thompson doesn't sign another FB he should be FIRED!

Yeah, there's no way he's coming back.

A reporter on Twitter does make a good point about his release, btw...

They just threw his name out there on the same list as, for instance, 1st year safety Greco, getting the same standard "thank you for the years of service" as a guy who can't crack our roster. After his years of service, you'd expect a little something more.

One reason I could think of is maybe having him as on option at left guard just in case the guys who will be competing for the job don't work out.

Or if he is healthy again he would be one hell of a back-up at RT.

But by God Non-Stop if you are happy then that's all that counts.

TED DON'T YOU DARE EVEN THINK ABOUT RE-SIGNING MARK TAUSCHER, YOU DO AND YOU WILL HAVE TO ANSWER TO ME!!!!!!!!
I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

I disagree... clearly the weren't talking to S Greco or the other one year guy... because they said "years". They were talking to the guy(s) who gave "years of service". So it could of meant just Tausher, Barrnett, Poppinga, Chillar and maybe Harrell... but not the 1 years guys.

Or perhaps they actually spoke to these men and didn't count on a press release as their sole means of communication...
