How so? Lewis had one Pro-Bowl season in 2010 with 700 yards and 10 TD's. He got tagged for a brief moment the following year and was rewarded a 5 year deal worth $35M with at least half of it being guaranteed after his $7.5M rookie deal expired. That was during the NFL Lockout by the way...

Then he goes onto regress tremendously. Starts dropping easy passes. Dropped a lot of TD passes too here and there if my memory serves correctly. Then they extended him again anyway for another 3 years worth $12M. [BLEEP] Marcedes Lewis. He made close to over $50M during his 12 year tenure here. And he did diddly squat outside of 2010.

He was a good run blocker. I'll give him that. But he was drafted for his receiving ability coming out of UCLA. His teammate, MJD, he should have been taken with that 28th overall pick if anything back in 2006.

"Marcedes was done dirty by this garbage FO". Pfft. Yeah, reallllllllll dirty with 12 years of ho-hum efforts to the tune of $50M. So, so dirty. He was released one week into free agency. 12 year veteran that had steadily regressed due to age and injury being released one week into free agency? That's being done "dirty"?. Didn't he run his mouth or something like that via twitter leading up to his release?

The only two players that truly got "done dirty" were David Garrard after he was named the starter and then cut going into the regular season and probably Fred Taylor after he was willing to take a pay cut and back seat to MJD to stay here.
