marck Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 I don't understand cutting Jason peters and keeping Rod Trafford. Both players were marginal and now Peters has a shot of landing on another teams roster, when if released on September 5th, probably could have been brought back on the practice squad. I think this was a bad move.
clayboy54 Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 For the love of Christ, could someone please explain to me why Jason Esposito is still on our roster???

Buckeye Eric Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 For the love of Christ, could someone please explain to me why Jason Esposito is still on our roster??? 13020[/snapback] There is still one more preseason game and they need a few OL scrubs to play the 4th quarter. They have one 3rd string G and T left (Esposito and McFarland)
zow2 Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Too bad about Jarel Myers. I actually thought he looked pretty smooth out there. It's a numbers game though. He caught everything thrown his way. Haddad is still hanging around.
ch19079 Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 brown had a shot at KR, but screwed that all up. i would like to see peters on the practice squad though.
LabattBlue Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 I am surprised that Haddad survived, yet Myers and Beard were let go. Haddad has seen very little action in the pre-season games. Maybe because of the film they have on Haddad, they already know what he is capable of versus the rookies who have never been in the NFL.

Art in PNS Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 The bills cut koontz ( sp ? ) already and I would not be surprised to see him on the PS , also Peters. Cutting them now doesn't mean they won't be available for the PS. Sometimes it is a strategy move because teams are less likely to try and grab an early cut that the last minute ones. Not saying that is the case here just a possibility.

Alaska Darin Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Fast Fumbling Freddie screwed up a lot worse than Antonio ever did and this is a surprise! 13364[/snapback] Not really. Brown is just another track athlete who is unable to do anything but run fast in a straight line. He's not a football player.
Realist Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Not really. Brown is just another track athlete who is unable to do anything but run fast in a straight line. He's not a football player. 13374[/snapback] In the likes of Renaldo Nehemiah of the 49ers in years past. Super fast, but did absolutely nothing else. No surprises on the list. I don't know why everyone is in love with Peters.
