Bruce isn't done yet

Isaac Bruce, 35, was released today by the Rams. In most cases, that would spell the end of his relevancy in the NFL. Bruce could be the exception.
His excellent play has been a pleasant surprise this month while I have reviewed tape for our draft guide. He was still beating single coverage (often drawing the best opposing defender) and was highly productive considering St. Louis' inconsistent offense. This was more about St. Louis' finances, and the fact Drew Bennett was the highest paid third receiver in the league.
Bruce has averaged 65 catches and 915 yards the last two years. Receivers his age are year-to-year propositions, but Bruce has shown little decline thus far. Look for his old coach Mike Martz to bring him to San Francisco to stabilize their wideout corps. His legendary run in with the Rams is over, but Bruce still has some Hall of Fame resume padding to do.

Just like the Rams to make an idiotic move like this. Welcome to SF Bruce. I hope you like Red and Gold.

Bruce goes to the only other team with such classless ownership, and I'm a fan!
