[QUOTE="CaliforniaCheez, post: 136910, member: 167"] Since Adam left the Packers he started every game, 204 consecutive games, until during game 14 last year he suffered multiple rib fractures. He is not brittle but very tough and with his record of starting in the league it is not correct to [i]seriously[/i] call him over the hill. Linehan the new coach (infected with purple slime) probably wants his guys in the line up. Check out this article [url]http://www.stltoday.com/stltoday/sports/stories.nsf/rams/story/715E227CB4072D908625728F0017A772?OpenDocument[/url] "The Rams were the NFL's losingest team in the 1990s when Timmerman was signed from Green Bay in free agency following the 1998 season. He was immediately inserted into the starting lineup at right guard and stayed there for the next eight seasons, playing in two Super Bowls, 10 playoff games overall and two Pro Bowls. Timmerman played with toughness and athleticism, also displaying a willingness to play through pain. [b]He compiled a streak of 204 consecutive regular-season and playoff games dating back to his rookie season (1995) with Green Bay.[/b] But Timmerman missed all but one snap of the final three games of 2006 because of cracked ribs. Timmerman said he never felt embraced by Linehan and his coaching staff. "I didn't feel that I was somebody they put much stock in, or that they cared that much about here," Timmerman said. "I don't know (why). It wasn't as if I didn't try to buy into the system." Linehan took exception to those remarks. "If that was the case, he wouldn't have started 13 games," Linehan said. "He did a very admirable job for us this year. This is the tough part of the business when you get guys that are at the end of the career. Very few get to go out like John Elway did." "From some conversations I've had around the league, I anticipate that there's going to be a lot of interest in Adam," said Mark Bartelstein, Timmerman's agent. Releasing Timmerman saves the Rams $1.3 million in cap space. Timmerman was due a $200,000 roster bonus next month. ************************************* I just don't see this as being a good move by the Rams with regard to the salary cap or degradation in play.
