Michael Bumpus didn't make it this year. That means one of two things; the team did not find the potential this year that they saw in him last year, or they are cutting him first, trying to make it look like they don't want him, so they can sneek him back over to the practice squad. A gamble to be sure, if that is the tactic.
Personally, I saw Michael step up and perform last year, until he broke a finger (I think it was) when we needed receivers, badly. He showed some potential, but given the depth we obtained this year (can you say Housh your mama - Houshmandzadeh), it was pretty obvious he would not make the 53-man roster.
If not destined for our practice squad, then here's to hoping he lands on his feet. There are teams in need of receivers this season. Thank goodness the Hawks do not seem to be one of them.
Go Hawks



I agree with his production last year, he kind of reminded me of Bobby Engram a little, same size and good hands but with the team possibly only keeping 5 WR's it makes it tough for someone like him to stay around, maybe KC will pick him up and Engram can mentor him, they are light at the WR position.
