The Facts:
Basanez was cut loose two days before the start of the team’s mandatory three-day, five-practice mini-camp. Basanez figured to be an odd man out after the team drafted Dan LeFevour in the sixth round out of Central Michigan last month.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
That leaves the team with three quarterbacks on the roster for new OC Mike Martz --Jay Cutler, Caleb Hanie and LeFevour. Per the NFP, the team has internally discussed the possibility of adding a veteran to the mix, but that isn’t a given and if it happens it will likely speak to the team’s comfort level with Hanie, who served as the No. 2 last year. Marc Bulger, who played under Martz in St. Louis, has been mentioned as a possibility.
