53... and now what? Roster Analysis... Something doesn't add up

[thenew23]

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.

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

Just imagine if they did that with your guy Johnny after "his" 2 games last season....hahaha...

Nothing else matters?......So, does that include Heisman winners from big schools???......just wondering.....

Have no fear, war will somehow try to twist this...... But like he - and Metallica said, "Nothing else matters".

I'd cut Marlon Moore first over Bibbs

[Zombo]

I expect to see Bibbs playing against the Jets

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.

[Mike H]

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......

[gftChris]

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.

Agree-too valuable to a team that needs every bit of field it can steal.

[Tour2ma]

I'm not sure Bibbs would make it to the PS.

I'd drop Housler. Just has that Fool's gold feel about him.

....something about Housler reminds me of a guy named Lawyer Tillman...........

You mean 5 or 6 quarters? Yes. That would have been dumb. And it would be dumb in Pryor's case too.

Where'd I say winning a Heisman would make you an NFL success? A statement like that would fly in the face of a ton of data. Sorry to burst your bubble but you haven't caught me in any sort of hypocrisy whatsoever.
