Bills release left guard Derrick Dockery - any thoughts for Rams??

Dockery's agent, Todd France, said he was informed by the Bills that they wanted to go in a different direction. He added that Dockery didn't fit the offensive line scheme under assistant Sean Kugler, who took over last year after Jim McNally retired. Dockery was scheduled to make $21.75 million over the final five years of his contract, not including incentives. The Bills signed him to a seven-year $49 million deal on the first day of free agency in March 2007 as part of major offensive line overhaul.

He sounds great, but one must wonder why he was released. Can't be that great if he was released. I understand trying to get money back, but if he's great, there'd be no reason to release him, right?

Could be a bust or he could use a change of scenery. He was in Buffalo. worth a look?? Maybe

but one must wonder why he was released.

Per John Clayton

A change in offensive line coaches may have affected his status.

That seems like a very PC statement to me though. "It's not you, it's me" sort of mentality.
