Shawn Andrews, such a waste

Eagles release Shawn Andrews

I always thought Shawn Andrews was a welcome change of the usual football pace. A lot of people didn't agree. It doesn't really matter now, though -- now that the Eagles have released their former Pro Bowl right guard.

He was such a good player when his back was right, and his head was right. He was as good an athlete as they've ever had play the guard position. Andrews could have been a cornerstone for this team for a decade -- quirky, yes, but a cornerstone. But now he's gone.

As for Andrews, we are left with his musings on Twitter. He is all high road here at the end.

So he seems to have seen it coming. Deep down, we all probably saw it coming. That doesn't change the odd feeling. In the end, the whole thing just seems like such a waste.
