But the release of George might not necessarily end his comeback attempt and, in fact, may have simply been a procedural move by the Raiders, aimed at not having to guarantee his full salary.

Raiders are being smart or dumb, not sure which.

Snips on Raiders and George:

Why did Raiders owner Al Davis find it necessary to drag in Jeff George during the final week of the preseason? Clearly, someone -- Davis, offensive coordinator Tom Walsh, perhaps coach Art Shell -- isn't comfortable with Aaron Brooks. Is this because Brooks refuses to publicly kiss Randy Moss' well-salaried behind and will not promise the Raiders' top receiver unlimited looks and catches?

Dumb for signing him, smart for releasing him.
But if all a "smart" move accomplishes is compensating for a previously made "dumb" move, how smart is it really?
