Quarterback
Aaron Brooks - He finally had a tryout recently with the Green Bay Packers. You
would think with all of the bad quarterback play this season (see Carolina
Panthers) that he would draw more interest.
Todd Bouman - Was waived by the St. Louis Rams recently and could handle the No.
2 role for certain systems.
Jay Fiedler - He hasn't thrown a pass in a game since 2005 but if healthy he
would certainly be worth a shot.
Doug Johnson - Serviceable as a No. 2. Had a tryout for the Jacksonville Jaguars
recently.
Rob Johnson - Was with the New York Giants in the 2006 off-season but he hasn't
thrown a pass in an NFL game since 2003.
Mike McMahon - More of an athlete than a quarterback at this point. Had a tryout
for the Miami Dolphins recently.
Shane Matthews - He last got in a game during the 2004 season and could be a
serviceable No. 3 man at this juncture.
Rohan Davey - Strong-armed passer but lacks touch. Had a tryout for the Green
Bay Packers.
Drew Henson - Played just one season in the NFL with 18 passes attempted. Had a
tryout with the Jacksonville Jaguars recently.
Koy Detmer - Has starting experience and can hold for kicks. Best used in No. 3
role. Was signed by the Minnesota Vikings recently but was waived after a few
days. Also can hold on kicks.
Running Back
Corey Dillon - Just started working out recently and is leaning toward playing
again this season but time is running out.
Kevan Barlow - He had tryouts for the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay
Buccaneers recently. Could fill No. 2 role for a team.
Domanick Williams - The versatile back's future is clouded because of knee
problems and surprisingly he hasn't had a single workout for any team this
season.
Wali Lundy - Was the starting back to open the 2006 for the Houston Texans yet
is out of a job. Had tryouts for the Denver Broncos, Seattle Seahawks, St. Louis
Rams, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers this season.
Verron Haynes - Has value as a third back for a team and can also play fullback
if needed. Had tryouts with the Houston Texans, New Orleans Saints, Pittsburgh
Steelers, Seattle Seahawks, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers this season.
Eric Shelton - The former underachieving second-round pick of the Carolina
Panthers offers size at the position and had tryouts for the Atlanta Falcons,
Cincinnati Bengals, Houston Texans, New York Giants, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers
this season.
Artose Pinner - Was waived by the Atlanta Falcons recently. Powerfully built
back who has decent speed.
Ciatrick Fason - The straight line runner and former fifth round pick of the
Minnesota Vikings offers some size and had tryouts with the Houston Texans,
Seattle Seahawks, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Tony Fisher - The veteran back offers some size and versatility and had tryouts
for the Houston Texans and Tampa Bay Buccaneers this season.
Fullback
Cory Schlesinger - He was a surprising final cut of the Miami Dolphins in
September when the rosters were set. He can still be a lead blocker for a team
for the short-term.
Daimon Shelton - He's a solid blocker and could start if needed for a team that
required him for that role.
Kyle Johnson - Was with the Denver Broncos earlier this season and had a tryout
with the Buffalo Bills.

the Tennessee Titans.

Bills, Chicago Bears, Seattle Seahawks, and Tennessee Titans this season.
Derrick Wimbush - The former Jacksonville Jaguar had a tryout for the Tennessee
Titans and visited the New York Giants recently.
Wide Receiver
Doug Gabriel - The once promising receiver offers size at the position and the
ability to stretch the field. Had tryouts with the Buffalo Bills, Oakland
Raiders, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Tennessee Titans this season.
Travis Taylor - Was waived by the St. Louis Rams recently and could fill a No. 3
role for a team.
Charles Rogers - Yet another disappointing former first-round pick of the
Detroit Lions yet is very talented. He has yet to have a tryout for a team this
season.
Corey Bradford - Journeyman receiver could fill a No. 3 or No. 4 role for a
team.
Az-Zahir Hakim - The oft-injured veteran could fill a slot role or return punts.
Rod Gardner - The journeyman receiver offers some size at the position but has
been with four teams since 2004. Had a tryout with the Oakland Raiders this
season.
Todd Pinkston - Was once a promising receiver who could get down field well
before he suffered a torn Achilles back in training camp of the 2005 season with
the Philadelphia Eagles.
Billy McMullen - Has played in the West Coast offense previously and offers
value for depth due to his size. He had a tryout for the Tennessee Titans
recently.

role for a team.

No. 4 role for a team. Had tryouts with the Buffalo Bills, Houston Texans,
Indianapolis Colts, Kansas City Chiefs, New York Jets, and Oakland Raiders this
season.
Kevin Kasper - The journeyman receiver had a tryout with the Cleveland Browns
this season. He can return kicks and fill a No. 4 role.

2006 has value as a punt or kick returner. He's had tryouts with the Carolina
Panthers, Cleveland Browns, Denver Broncos, Oakland Raiders, and Tampa Bay

few years but offers value as a kick returner. He had tryouts with the
Cincinnati Bengals, St. Louis Rams, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers this season.
Jimmy Farris - Was waived by the Washington Redskins recently and could handle a
No. 4 role for a team.

with the Houston Texans and Tampa Bay Buccaneers this season.

Baltimore Ravens recently.

late last season and hasn't played ever since.

the Buffalo Bills recently.
Ernie Conwell - Oft-injured but productive player who could fill a No. 2 role
for a team. Had a tryout with the Detroit Lions this season.
Jermaine Wiggins - Journeyman who could fill a no. 2 role. Was released by the
Jacksonville Jaguars shortly before the regular season started.
Aaron Shea - Athletic and could fill a no. 3 role for a team or better.
Marcellus Rivers - Was recently waived by the New England Patriots and had a
tryout for the Detroit Lions recently.
Darnell Sanders - Strictly a No. 3 tight end.

brings some size to the position. Had tryouts with the Baltimore Ravens and
Miami Dolphins this season.

could be a solid backup at the position for a team.

backup or spot starter for a team.
Zach Piller - He has solid starting experience and could be a solid backup or
starter if needed for a team.
Toniu Fonoti - Weight is constantly is an issue with him but if he can control
it, he could be a productive starter for a team.

for a team. Had a tryout for the St. Louis Rams this season.

experience.

insurance for a team.
Zach Wiegert - Has played both tackle spots and could be insurance for a team.

Bills recently.
