** The New York Daily News reports Miami RB Ricky Williams will be
allowed to participate in training camp and all 5 exhibition games before
serving his 4-game suspension. The report points out that “Miami's bye
comes in the fourth week, which means Williams can't return until Week
6, giving him just one regular season game before the trading deadline
to show that he can still play.†One GM told the Daily News that Saban
will showcase Williams in the preseason for a possible trade and if no
one bites he will cut him. We’ve always thought that sounded like a
reach. Too many distractions for what, a 3rd round pick at best? And who
would offer it when Seattle gets no takers for the All-Pro (and
drug-free) RB Shaun Alexander?
