http://www.profootballweekly.com We hear the main reason the Cardinals decided to release S Justin Lucas was S Adrian Mayes, an undrafted free agent out of LSU who didn’t even play safety in college. Don’t be surprised if Mayes makes his presence felt both in the secondary and on special teams. Even though they’re under no pressure to do so, don’t be surprised if the Patriots restructure the contracts of QB Tom Brady and/or DL Richard Seymour before the start of the 2004 season. Both players are underpaid in today’s market. By extending their deals, the team can lock them up for more years and free up money to re-sign pending free agents after this season, such as OLT Matt Light, WR David Giv*ens, special-teams standout Larry Izzo and DL Jarvis Green. We hear that New England decided not to bring back loyal, respected veteran DE Bobby Ham*ilton because it wants to give time to youngsters like Jarvis Green (25), Rodney Bailey (24), Ty Warren (22), Vince Wilfork (22) and Marquise Hill (21). That’s not counting star DL Richard Seymour, who is 24 years old.
j-lo has a shot. Fresh off his breakup with his “Bachelor” girlfriend Jessica Bowlin, Giants QB Jesse Palmer impressed at the team’s final minicamp and really helped his chances of making the team over Ryan Van Dyke, who tailed off in his final few NFL Europe games, and rookie Jared Lorenzen, who has “practice squad” written all over him.
