[Merged] Miami Dolphins Cuts to 53 players

They'd have to throw in Justin Tuck, too.

 

He won't either and honestly I think it's almost on purpose. When he got passed over for the last columnist spot that came open at the Sentinel (correctly, Berardino deserved it) he quit being a beat writer and has acted as a columnist (albeit only writing dolphin stories) ever since. It's also why he seems to have a stream of assistant beat writers who all seem to leave very quickly when they realise they'll have to do all the heavy lifting and get none of the credit.

Truth is though in this new age for newspapers, acting like a talk radio host on twitter gets the Sentinel site hits and I imagine they're quite happy with him for that.

To keep this on topic, I wouldn't be shocked if we only have 3 WR on the roster this evening.

Westerman surprises me, he put on some good pressure this preseason.

 

Perhaps.
It's all moot, if we need to rely on anyone not named Tannehill at QB we're probably f*cked anyway

 

And this is why you ship off the one with value (but not Devlin) between Moore and Garrard.

 

Which might be true but his hands are another story.


Any update on Moore?

 

Not often we agree on something............

 

So now we have 2 CB's or 3?

 

Mind boggling.....Ireland is the pure Lulz

 

You have the oddest defenition of "boy" apparently. If anyone cut so far was my boy, it was Pruitt.

 

One thing I think we need to stay consciously aware of is whether we're evaluating players relative to the standard of our current roster, or the standard of what you actually should be seeing on an NFL team. I think it's easy for us to be surprised that some players are getting cut relative to what we've seen overall this preseason, when if you compare their play to what most half decent teams are putting out there in the same spot it's clearly inadequate.

Gates would be a good example of this; if we had a decent level of talent at WR I don't Gates would have been in the discussion for a roster spot at all. Better imo to make room and bring in the new. This is going to be a season of weekly roster moves.

 

Gary Guyton got canned, it looks like.

 

But he might just be the only one who did it thrice. And with a 3rd round pick, too

 

omar: paul13 is in the safe zone

*paul13 dies of mad cow disease*

 

For all we know Green Bay have never had any intention to trade James Jones for draft picks, it's only been speculation from people outside of Green Bay based on recycled rumours from previous years and our need at WR.

The Packers are hoping to contend for a Super Bowl this year, why on earth would they trade a contributor for picks next year? That's something for non-contenders like us to do.

 

I won't miss Clyde Gates one bit.

 

We'll have to keep some players. I think. I hope.

 

Agreed.
I posted this in another thread:

Alen said he's heard they keep 6.

 

Why not take a look at those two guys .They were impressing enough to make the James Jones trade plausible and neither will cost us a pick.

 

This pretty much ends the Ireland debate: Legedu Naanee.

/drops mic

 

Naanee's a goner once they are able to acquire any WR that even resembles a vet. My guess is that he only made the roster because they really can't start Hogan and Matthews at split end in week 1.
