The Arizona Cardinals announced on their official web site that they have released linebacker Buster Davis, their third-round pick from Florida State.

It's a surprise move, as first-day picks almost always make the roster.

“(Buster) never really stepped up to what we needed,” coach Ken Whisenhunt said. “We said going in we would pick the best 53 for the football team and we made that clear. I had even spoken with Buster that his level of performance on the field was not quite what we had seen on the tape.”

The full list of Cardinals cut: quarterbacks Shane Boyd and Lang Campbell; linebackers David Holloway and Pago Togafau; center Scott Peters; tight end Alex Shor; running back Steve Baylark; guard Brian Johnson; safety Brandon Keeler; defensive tackle Jonathan Lewis; cornerbacks Michael Adams, Darrell Hunter and Justin Wyatt; tackles Elliot Vallejo, Qasim Mitchell and Brandon Gorin; fullback Roshon Vercher; and wide receivers Leron McCoy, Matt Trannon and Michael Spurlock.

Wow! total shocker!...What does that say about your scouting when your #3 does not hack it?...or the patience of your coaching staff?...Either you took someone you weren't suppose to, or you aren't patient enough to develop him ...neither is a good sign. Hope he catches on else where.

Yeah, I'm with you here. Time to look long and hard at your scouts if they had you pick someone this overrated on the first day.
