I understand the move if this turns out to be true. But still Im sad to see Cortland go, he was a great guy off the field and brought a passion to our defense that we will miss.
 
I was a little surprised I thought fish said the other day he was in the plans for this year.
 
Now the question becomes, does he get re-signed at a (much) lower salary later in the off-season?
 
I think if he wanted to stay at a lower sallary he just would have taken a restructure I would think, if it was even offerd to him
 
Cortland Finnegan says his goodbye to St. Louis

When coach Jeff Fisher took over the Rams, bringing in Cortland Finnegan was an obvious hire, to add the kind of toughness he thought the Rams needed.

With his recent play and his salary, getting rid of him was just as obvious.

Finnegan just tweeted out what appears to be his goodbye to the Rams, saying “thank you for your letting me play for a classy franchise and coach fish nothing but love thank you all.”

Finnegan had a $3 million roster bonus coming due next week, and was going to count $10 million against the cap. That would have been fine if he hadn’t played so poorly last season.

As much as he likes Fisher and Fisher might like him, that made this one a bit of a no-brainer.
 
He was a good guy, I liked him. His play last year was not anywhere close to what it should have been, and with that cap hit its not shocking. Still was a good guy though, good for the room. Bittersweet to see him go.

Was worried it wasn't going to happen. Would not mind at all if they bring him back for cheap.
