    Why's no one mentioned the idea that they could cut Pryor after giving him a "tryout" in the first couple games.

    Because if you are taking a chance on a talented guy learning a new position you're going to give him a full season. We already cut someone to keep him so we are committed I assume.

    My guess would be that there are many OSU fans on this forum and from my experience, I find that fans of a particular college seem to be very protective - heck almost obsessed - of any players that came from said college.............. Just something I've seen for a year or so.

  • I think you see if the potential is there. The NFL is all about getting on the field in real action. Nothing else matters or will necessarily be indicative of future success.

    We've barely seen him in a game. I'd give him 6 then reevaluate.

  • So, who gets cut for Draughn this week? Or, who else do we sign?

    I guess they have to decide what role Bibbs has. If he is your 3rd TE than Housler expendable.

    A RB will be added.

  • Bibbs can play and I'm excited about him long term but we may be overstating his effectiveness right now.

    If not Housler ... who is your cut?

  • Bibbs. I thought that was implied. Given how things have gone so far, he'd probably make the PS.

    Got to believe we sign RB. Bibbs > Housler in offensive schemes. M. Moore our 7th WR only a good ST'er at this point. Could risk MM getting to PS and drop 1 of 4 OL on PS (Miller or Ladson). Adding a player after week 1 games puts player at a 1 year lower minimum, but now is the time before players can pretty much say where they will go. Hope Farmer unlocked the money but doubt it. No more Mc Ghee's please.

    I think Moore stays, along with Carder and Bademosi, purely for special teams. At least, two of them stay and Carder is first up to leave.

  • Have no problem cutting Carder either. I think Bademosi offers more at DB than either do at WR or LB

    Bademosi is #11 DB out of 11. He's also #1 STer on the team the last three years or something. Tabor gets to keep a couple for that only.

    Agreed. Moore is #1 KR and #1 gunner.

    Ha!....talk about varied opinions......Ill put my votes in for either Bademosi or Dray....

    Yeah probably......JFF will somehow be the exception......

  • First to be cut from the entire roster would be a TE, IMO. 4 is too many, I think Barnidge stays for the versatility (to disguise the play?), Dray stays for running downs, and then one of Bibbs or Housler. More upside with Bibbs, but he could make it to the PS.

    Carder would be first up of the core STers - Moore, Bademosi, Carder.
