per Joe Fortenaugh of the National Football Post (via twitter):

Tampa Bay RB Derrick Ward just got cut. That was money very poorly spent.

So where does Ward go, I thinking:

Oakland

Denver

Washington (shanny loves backs)

N.E. he be a pup amoung old dogs

STL, Houston perhaps

First place I thought of. Belicheck loves reclamation projects, so I wouldn't rule out some success if Ward ends up there.

The Pats already have 5 RB's. I really don't know who is gonna be cut, if any of them, but I don't see the space for him.

Why do we think Ward is going to go anywhere? Very good chance he's done. Even if he does sign somewhere, he'll be completely useless as a fantasy option, imo.

St. Louis seems like a natural fit. They are desperate for a veteran RB and Spags should have some level of knowledge about Ward from when they were both with the Giants.

Of course, it all depends on what type of money Ward thinks he is worth. I'd imagine not much.

Considering how Maroney seems to be back in the doghouse, he could be a candidate. Seems like Law Firm is also playing for a roster spot.

Good call there.

Not a shock, but per Jay Glazer:

Bucs tried to trade derrick ward before releasing him and found no takers around the league

 

[sho nuff]

Wouldn't mind seeing him in Green Bay to at least kick the tires.

With Starks still nursing the injury, Lumpkin and Porter being average at best...worth a look.

per PFT:

Derrick Ward is visiting the Texans today and possibly the Seahawks. Per league source.
