Pastor Dillon Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 So far I've seen we have cut Nick Novak and Branden Weednen. Both surprising i suspect we cut Weeden so we can kept another WR since Fuller and Miller are hurt and Strong is suspended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apollo Stallion Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 31 cuts thus far: Mike Catapano RaShaun Allen Erik Austell Sio Moore - we STILL need an ILB who can cover - thin as ever Malik Smith Dayon Pratt Marcus Leak K.J. Dillon - never been too impressed, but was hoping he could knock Pleasant off roster Evan Baylis - practice sq with legit chance to bump underwhelming Stephen Anderson at some pt Gimel President - practice sq likely Robert Nelson - so much for AJ Bouye Jr. hype Brandon Weeden - decent backup, but not much point to 33 year old 3rd stringers Nick Novak - LOVE LOVE LOVE than we are going with Fairbairn who can actually kick into end zone on kickoffs Dres Anderson - surprised with this one, esp since Strong can be placed on suspended list Josh Walker Avery Williams Riley McCarron Eric Lee - practice sq and I suspect and early call up Denzel Rice - I smell IR resort stash Tony Washington Dare Ogunbowale - PS candidate Eli Ankou - PS candidate Justin Hardee Laurence Gibson Chad Slade Germone Hopper David Quessenberry - sad but true - guessing Fuller beats him out with Mancz hopefully pushing XSF Matthew Godin Wendall Williams - surprised we didn't IR him Shakeel Rashad - ps candidate Lonnie Ballentine - sure enjoyed that one play he made before getting blown up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apollo Stallion Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Pretty odd roster make-up as it stands: 6 Running Backs + 1 FB (most carry 3-4). Miller, Blue, Foreman, Ervin, Hunt, Todman, Prosch That's as many running backs as we have defensive lineman!!! 3 Active WRs for week 1 - Hopkins, Miller, Ellington (Strong suspended, Fuller injured) Mancz & Fuller are the only backups at C/LG/RG. Neither of our T's are good candidates to kick inside as Giacomini is a 6' 7" former TE and extremely raw Davenport has his hands full learning one new position. Lamm can kick inside, but as of today, he's your starting RT. Strong is on Reserve/Suspended and D. Brown is Reserve/Did Not Report, so 2 more cuts are coming. Suspect Todman is just being given a little more time to make an impression. Kamalu strikes me as the next likely cut, but I'd much prefer JAG Brandon Dunn be sent packing. IR requires 8 week layoff, but we get 2 IR-return spots this year. Personally, I think you've gotta IR-return Fuller even if Ervin is pretty much a receiver at this point. Dres Anderson should be suiting up for this team and I think something's gotta be coming as you can't go into a game with 3 WRs. Offensive line depth is HORRENDOUS even if D. Brown suits up Wk 1. Hopefully Rick is still shopping as grabbing street FA's is one of the few things I'll give him credit for being pretty solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor Dillon Posted September 3, 2017 Author Share Posted September 3, 2017 Ervin will probably be playing WR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess that means Johnson, Jackson, Joseph and Decoud are your top four. Little concerned with the depth here. Hopefully there's a post cut add to be had here (someone from the New England cuts makes sense). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Stallion Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Texans claimed WR Andy Jones off waivers from Cowboys. Remember him being hyped LAST preseason as a potential breakout UDFA star. Can't say I know much else about him. Had high hopes for some of the speed demons in camp making the roster this year as I am thoroughly unimpressed by Fuller & Miller and have wanted the fat lazy stoner Strong out of here since about 2 weeks after we drafted him. Don't want to be accused of anything nice about the Cowboys, but they are pretty good at finding/developing UDFA Receivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jch1911 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Jags snagged Eli Ankou. I hoped he would make practice squad. I really don't look forward to facing him 2X a season. I obviously think he has the makings of a solid NT who can push the pocket and get to the QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
