Dr LBC Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 11 minutes ago, RamPackFan said: ok, fair enough..I didn't write the article. Why would they cut a position of need (LB) such as Barron vs cutting a 3rd string RB like Tavon Austin, who probably will never start a game in 2018? How does that make sense? Because the LB, who doesn't fit the scheme, can free up as much as $7M in cap space this season whereas Tavon, if he were cut now after agreeing to restructure his deal (literally, eliminated all the remaining years on his contract after this year and allowed the team to make $3M of the $8M he was due incentive-based) would have major good-faith bargaining blowback with our other players we're trying to re-sign or in future contract restructuring talks we have with players on the roster. Tavon may yet still be cut, but they're going to give him the preseason to earn his spot - that was the transaction both sides agreed to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You love your hyperbolic words ("obsessed," "guarantee," "take it to the bank," "lost your panties"). Get over yourself. There is your original post in this thread about your "confident prediction." No mention of Suh - so stop pretending. You may have intended to say it, but you didn't. You then walked it back from "1 of our 2 first picks" to 1 of our first 3 then to one of our first 4 and when challenged that you'd walked it back you doubled-down on 1 of the first three. That's not cherry-picking, that's holding you accountable to the statements you make. So for clarification, one of us read what you wrote, and it's fairly clear it wasn't you. Maybe you should go back and re-read what you actually wrote in the Draft Discussion thread where "if we sign Suh" was mentioned... it was about taking Ridley at #26 if he was there. Again, you may have intended to draw a parallel between that post and where you made your hot take in here, but you didn't - that's not on a failure of the reader, it's because if you intended to connect those dots, you didn't do so coherently. lol...don't take this so seriously, dude. I'm having fun and I'm only making predictions....as MANY people do. You seem to be the only one who gets all "snowflaky" over it. None of us have a crystal ball. If you say you never make predictions or think something will happen then you are a liar. I'm STILL saying ONE OF THREE picks!! I've said that sooooooo many times, dude! YES, you're totally cherry picking. How many times do I have to say it...go back and tally em' up, dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's rare to see a player account for what he did for a major conference football team. Were talking Christian McCaffery-Stanford type of usage.

If they feel they can replace him easily then the money savings makes sense. Cutting Tavon though makes zero financial sense. Cutting Webster makes financial and roster sense especially coming back from injury. Extending Saffold and reducing his cap hit this year a couple million makes the most sense. Cutting Tavon saves us only his base pay which is a vet minimum. Im not advocating it at this point but cutting Barron ten signing a vet to $1-2 million and drafting 2 guys. Then you go with those three along with Hager and Littleton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
