Cut down week thread

[boozeman]

Cards have two backup qbs fighting for that 3rd spot (unless they keep 4).. Thomas and Simms. I'd take either one of those over Weeden.

I hate Weeden too, but let's not get crazy here.

Hmmmmmm.

Only 25 years old. He would come cheap. What’s wrong with this guy? Shitty vision?

Well,he has been catching flak for running into piles instead wide open gaps,but honestly I don't know.

I would kick the tires on Fred Jackson. See what he has left.

Why? At this point Gus Johnson is a better option than him, and probably 12 or 13 yrs younger

Basically he just cant play. Even Gus Johnson is a better prospect than him at this point.

You're right, I'll admit I haven't seen or read a lot about either of the two but in last nights game I seen more out of them than I ever have in Weeden.

He looked pretty good last night receiving out of the backfield. Richardson is frustrating because he has shown flashes of his potential but then he'll get tripped up and go down over a blade of grass.

 

[dbair1967]

He's another guy I missed badly on, as did a lot of people.

Looked like a sure thing coming out. Dude is just awful on the field though.

I like Gus but he might be better suited for the PS this season. Jackson would offer that vet experience and be much better in 3rd down/critical situations than Gus would be.

Not saying we're going to sign him or should... Got a good feeling we're rolling with what we have until either an injury or Randle fucks up again.

Same here. I thought he was "cant miss".

 

[dbair1967]

As long as McFadden and Randle are healthy, I really don't have much concern.

Stephen Jones: I wouldn't say we're set at RB. We like our 3 RBs a lot. "If we saw a young RB to add to the mix, we'd certainly look at it."

Kinda wondering if Dunbar might be in some trouble in terms of being on final roster.

Doubt it. Not with his KR ability.

 

[LAZARUS_LOGAN]

Brandon George -- The Cowboys have waived cornerback Robert Steeples, receiver Phil Bates, defensive tackle Carlif Taylor, punter Tom Hornsey and long snapper Casey Kreiter.

Hoping this was done to avoid further showcasing him in the last preseason game, and try to slip him on the PS.

 

[cmd34]

Steeples is garbage.

 

[dbair1967]

Dunbar? What kick return "ability" has he shown?

Right now IMO he's shown that he can be an "ok" KR. Nothing more really.

 

[dbair1967]

Might be a name to watch for us, we got a good look at him those two days we practiced with the Rams too. I think he was part of that brawl.

Rams made a series of roster moves to get closer to league-mandated 75 players by Tuesday. No major shocks though CB Imoan Claiborne, who had played well in preseason was a mild surprise. Team has three more moves to make to get to 75.

 

[Doomsday]

Why is no one anywhere, talking Ray Rice? Was he signed, or is he blackballed or what?

I'd actually be shocked if Dunbar is cut. Isn't it rumored that Linehan loves him?
