Talent will get him an NFL gig.

Leonard Little
Donte Stallworth
Mike Vick
Plaxico Burress

are just a few examples

Burress may have had a bad attitude, but I don't know that the other guys did when it came to listening to their coaches. The fact that we had a coach quit over him speaks volumes. Teams won't deal with him because of how he reacts to coaches and teammates. He's super talented, but he is a cancer and teams won't want someone like him that can divide a locker room on their team.

Wow, Didn't see how he did in preseason. Was he that bad? They might have used him at QB. LOL

looks like Bray made the cut with KC. Maybe he can put in a good word for Rogers...

Bills are pretty solid at WR. That would have been a tough get for him. Someone will pick him up. I think the Eagles should have a look at him.

Well that didn't last long. Practice squad maybe? Bills is one team I would not want to be on as a WR. Would be weird if he landed on the Broncos and was catching passes from Peyton Manning.

Per Rotoworld...

Bills waived WR Da'Rick Rogers, WR DeMarco Sampson, C Ryan Turnley, CB Jumal Rolle, and DB Dominique Ellis.

Although Rogers demonstrated big-time talent on college tape -- he was a stud in the SEC as a sophomore before getting kicked out of Tennessee -- he didn't show well in Bills minicamp, OTAs, or training camp and was running with the fourth-team offense in preseason games. Because Rogers fell entirely out of the draft due to character concerns, he may very well go unclaimed on waivers.

Has the talent, just needs to get that mental part of life down. Hope he gets a chance with another NFL squad.

Rogers failed to make the Bills roster. Not really surprising since he had been struggling a little bit. But, wherever he ends up, best wishes to him.

Bills release five, reduce roster to 76

Mods, please move to NFL forum if you wish. I just put it here because he had been such a hot topic as a former Vol around draft time and now that preseason has started (or almost over). Thanks. :hi:

He'll resurface. Too much size, talent. Somebody picks him up assuming there are no off the field and/or attitude issues.
