Perusing the NFL cuts so far

A few interesting names have popped up on the waiver wire in the past few days. The Raiders cut DE Greg Spires, who's had a pretty good career, mainly with Tampa. Oakland also picked up FB Luke Lawton after the Eagles cut him.

A bunch of wideouts have been cut, including former Eagle Darnerian McCants, by Baltimore, and former Giant Tim Carter, by Houston. Jacksonville cut former Penn Stater Isaac Smolko, a tight end.

And the Steelers cut Jeremy Bloom - I would not have enjoyed seeing him become a success with them after flaming out with the Birds.

Anyone think Spires or Carter is worth a look-see for the Eagles?
