why did we get rid of Turbin? Duke has proven he's not an everydown back and Crowell is so week to week. Makes no sense unless there were some personal issues with him.

When did duke prove that?

Tate, Bowe, Pryor, Turbin, Thomas, wtf is going on?

[The User from Cleveland]

and nothing of value was lost.

[cdl15]

How do you figure? We guys play for micro seconds and then that's it. the only reason Bowe is here is 9Million.

If your talking about me, I wasn't replying to you, just the topic. Turbin has never scored a rushing TD.

Turbin will get picked up by the Patriots and help them win the super bowl.

Would make sense, as Towson is in Maryland right in the heart of Ratbird country. .

Turbin hasn't done anything. Winston is better.

Besides, we need space on the gameday for both Winston and Gaines. If we're going to cut Williams and Haden and Gilbert, we need to see if Gaines is decent.. and, next year, if the IR'd ekpre-olomu will be a player.

[Zombo]

Thank you for fumbling away any chance we had at winning the Arizona game, Turbin. so glad we held a roster spot for you for so long.

On to the Great Winston!

They have LeGarrett Blount, they dont need Turbin.

[Canton Mike]

Can somebody please tell me what it costs to sign players for a week or two & then cut them? Seems to me that, if nothing else, it makes us look silly.

They don't need Turbin. They have Blount already. They would replace Dion Lewis with more of a quick pass catching threat..

Wait, what?!?!

[Canton Dawg]

I don't know, they hold up a roster spot for Turbin and wait how many weeks for him to rehab? Then you finally get to see him fumble the ball a couple of times, and then he gets cut. Did someone, anyone not do their homework on this guy before they claimed him off waivers? This is just another example of Farmer and his scouting dept flying by the seat of their pants.

Pro-rate their salary which in most cases is league minimum... $435k. Turbine's rate was $660k.

Add incidentals like travel, uni, physical... maybe $4k???

If you think waiting for Turpin was long. We have carried Winston on IR & PS for 2 Years!! Kick the dust off, slide before you get hit & Run you Bitch RUN!!!

I'm setting the Winston active-games-before-being-cut over/under at 3.5
