He wasn't let go by Cleveland His initial 4 year contract was over. The other guys were cut/released.
Randy exploded as a rookie and Santana succeeded in his 3rd year with his team. We were looking for examples of WRs that got cut or dumped from their original team before proving themselves, but went on to succeed.
Ehh, it was over 20 years ago so hard to remember specific details. Cleveland never used him and only started him a handful of games a year and made no attempt to resign him. Then he blew up in Jacksonville, close enough to the original post of "dumped or cut" IMO.
If we want to expand this to non-fantasy position players, the list is quite a bit longer. But I'd still guess its a small percentage compared to the overall number of guys that are given up on by teams and never amount to anything. Given what we have seen of the situation on Hard Knocks and with the other decisions the clowns running Cleveland have made, I'd say Coleman has a chance to be an exception. Unfortunately he got shipped from one part of Siberia to another so the chances of him turning it around are pretty dang low.

There's a reason the Bills paid a 7th rounder for him.
He's a soon to be released bum.

Bills must have been really motivated not to have him on the team. Now I Gotta know if Zay Jones made the roster?

I suppose he was always going to compete with and lose to Jones for play time but the fact that he was unable to stick as a back-up means this guy must be completely irredeemable.

Insert "So you're saying there's a chance" GIF here. There's a greater than zero probability he gets picked up by the Patriots or Cowboys, and then truthers can keep him. Otherwise, drop.

And basketball players?
Cowboys TE Rico Gathers was arrested for marijuana possession Friday night in Frisco, Texas.
The arrest occurred around 10 PM local time. According to Brandon George of the Dallas Morning News, Gathers has posted bond and is about to be released from jail. Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones implied earlier this week that Gathers was likely to make the team's 53-man roster but Friday's arrest may call that into question. Even if he survives final cuts, the former Baylor basketball player won't have any fantasy significance.

Maybe Coleman and Gathers are going to be player owners in P Diddy's emergent football league.

These guys take normal life for granted. Just another wasted opportunity.

I traded my only share early in the offseason (don’t remember for what) but at the time I remember thinking how it was more the target share that scared me off than his talent. If I owned him now and had a spot I’d hold until he lands. The right spot could still pay dividends- i like him a lot more on say Baltimore than I do buffalo or Cleveland.

Which, after looking my roster in that league is what I will do as I got 4-5 other players that are waiver wire fodder. This was a startup last year and I took him at 4.03
and looking back, probably one of the worst drafts I've ever done, although it was salvaged somewhat with Nuk at 1.10.

Theoretically couldn't the Browns then sign Corey Coleman to a non-guaranteed cheap deal after Week 1?
When was the last time they were actually good? What is your over/under for them this year?

At least you're not Josh McDaniels trading up to draft Tebow in the first round.
Oooooooof.

Dude....Tebow had Jesus. So it was like getting 2 guys for one pick.
i mean, that & $1.50 will get you a cup of coffee, but how else do you explain the playoff win? Tebow & JC carried that broncos team.
That’s one of the most surreal & surprising wins in NFL history IMO.

Truly bizarre. So many things had to happen on the OT touchdown. The no-safety look by Pittsburgh. A healthy DT taking advantage and just outrunning the coverage down the field to score on what was essentially a slant. Tebow actually hitting DT in stride.Dude....Tebow had Jesus.

Reports are that he had a poor attitude, hadn't learned much of the playbook in 3 weeks and clearly wasn't giving 100% in practice or games.travdogg said:
It was obviously a bad trade, but I think it's a stretch to say that the Bills made a mistake in cutting him.

New England grabbed Darboh and Hansen and ignored Coleman... I wonder if Dallas might bite?
He has talent - maybe realizing that he has at best one more shot to make it in the NFL will improve his attitude?

Needs to go to a team with a decent QB like Indy, carolina , SF

What was his contract though? I'm guessing most teams didn't want to bite on it and inherit the deal.

What's the probability you get over a ten if you just guess on all the questions?
I bet it's like thirty-five percent or something like that.

Whoever formatted that webpage must have scored even lower than a 10 on the Wonderlic because bright yellow print on a white background is a horrible decision.

Holy cow I wonder what's it like having a conversation with a person that scores a 7 out of 50 on that test.

Working out with Pats today... scheduled for Eagles tomorrow.
Way to dumb to stick with the Pats. When you can't make the Bills team, you really shouldn't make any team.
