Doc Posted August 31, 2013 Posted August 31, 2013 My favorite part of cuts was seeing Easley survive. He earned a spot. So too did Troup. I think Legursky goes on short-term IR, which frees up a spot. And while it sounds like Scott is gone, I'd rather they kept him. He's a DB(/LB) and had 4INT's last season. Guys I would look to cut instead would be Bryant, Cross, or Ross.

Wait Troup earned a spot but Ross/Bryant should be cut? Yeah....no. Go back and watch the games. 2 DL can definitely be cut. But Troup stood out way less than Ross OR Bryant.

They may be trying to get a guard for Scott if Legursky's injury is as bad as it looked. I don't understand why the oline doesn't wear knee braces in these "meaningless" games.
l< j Posted August 31, 2013 Posted August 31, 2013 Why would a team trade for Scott instead of just waiting a few days if they need that kind if player?
bowery4 Posted August 31, 2013 Posted August 31, 2013 First one has got to be Izaan Cross. Then Bryan Scott due to all the speculation. Then I would say Troup is a possibility, if not then Westerman maybe to free up a spot. I would like to see them pick up an OG and CB from other team's cuts. Cross/Scott gets them to 53, IR Legursky and cut another LB/Troup gives them the space to do both. Hopefully their practice squad has Pough, Kaufman and/or Rogers, and I would expect Chibane to get a chance there too. Edit: Also forgot they're currently carrying 4 OT. Do they really need Welch AND Young? Can't they find a guy who can hack it on both sides and only carry 3? Welch, no. He looks terrible to me. Why would a team trade for Scott instead of just waiting a few days if they need that kind if player? Saving face for him (long time Bill and all that), maybe looking for a Shep type deal, guarantees that both teams get who they want, instead of going through the iffies of waivers, just a few reasons.
