Cuts and Pickups Thread

I figured that TD return wouldn't be enough to save Orchard. He got virtually no penetration against Lions backups.

I knew Dayes & Hilliard had no spots available to them.

I'm happily surprised to see that Ratley and Willies both made it.

Brantley was a surprise. Drango I guess just wasn't good.

Ummm .... who the Shmuck is Orsen Charles?

I've been following the roster all year and never heard of him.

Let him explain to Cajuste's Dad why he took his son's job.

I was shaking my head on this one too. When in the hell did he play in pre-season?

He played, he had 1 or 2 targets in the preseason, I think the only reason he didn't get cut is because he will be doing the FB role, he provide almost nothing in the passing game, but can block.

wjy did we cut brantley in favor of an injured NT? didnt we get rid of danny cause he supposedly didnt fit our scheme?

I remember seeing Charles out there, #82 I believe. He didn’t look very tall but looked like a physical blocking TE at the least.

Cajuste will get a shot somewhere, he can play.

I was shocked to see both Dayes and Hilliard cut.

Most surprised by Drango. Seemed to me neither he nor Corbett established themselves as better than the other at the OG position. I get keeping Corbett as their high 2nd round pick guy and assumed faster learning curve, but l thought Drango would at least make the team with his experience, positional flexibility, and because he wasn’t awful.

I thought Dayes earned a spot too, but l get the position log jam.

Makes for a bit of a depressing end to Hard Knocks. All 3 underdawg story lines didn’t make it: Cajuste, Orchard and Roback.

I hope we bring Brantley and Dayes back to the PS if they clear waivers. And I would bring in Kendall Wright (WR) even though he did come from Baylor.

Not sure why but can't find a list by position that includes all rookies? No Roback or Cajuste made this list and even Falcons cut Kurt Benkert..Shocked Dallas cut Bailey & Ealy but I think position dorsey may look is a swing Tackle/DE/LB..

...why do I remember referring to him as Out To Paztor? (cruel like I am) - I don't think I was overly enamored by him. Might be different this time around.
