    It'll be interesting to see who NE keeps at TE...on the bubble alex smith(formerly with TB) and ben watson...also benjarvis green-ellis might get cut as well

    TE David Thomas was always a favorite of mine in college. Great hands. 10 catches in the BCS Championship vs. USC.

    I'd also wouldn't be surprised to see them show interest in Danny Woodhead if the Jets release him. He was a Mangini find in NY. After the 158 yards last night (albeit against third stringers)...it might make the RB position a bit interesting. I'm not sure how that would work since it's already crowded back there but it's a thought.

    OG Billy Yates? Cut today by NE.

  • BenJarvus Green-Ellis's stat line from last night:29 carries, 125 yards, 3 TD's; 4 receptions, 22 yardsI doubt he gets cut.

  • Former OSU linebacker Marcus Freeman got cut. He's not a great fit for us, but it's interesting that the Bears let him go.

  • Steelers' cuts:

    • - center
    A.Q. Shipley

    - d-lineman Sonny Harris (I like his upside)

    - linebacker Bruce Davis ('08 3rd round pick, didn't transition well to OLB)

    - cornerback Anthony Madison

    - RB-FB Carey Davis (can serve as a short-yardage back)

    - RB Isaac Redman (physical back, but lacks long speed)

  • Wouldnt mind Leonard Pope or Trevor Canfield that the Cards just released, maybe Victor Hobson too...

  • I'd like to get Pope and Bruce Davis.... Aloy...they got maroney, taylor , faulk, morris ...they gonna keep 5 rb's?

  • Hobson was cut, so was fransisco(s) spot starter last year for AZ...

    Arizona Oliver Ross T Cut (not a bad RT)

    Kansas City Damion McIntosh T Cut

    Kansas City Travis Daniels CB Cut

    Also Melvin Fowler cut yet again...Where's rich when you need to beat him up!!!

    Put Bruce Davis on the I Don't Know Shit About Shit side of my ledger. I really wanted him.

    Don't worry. It happens to the draft-geekiest of us. Hell, I used to be a big D.J. Shockley fan.

    Mike Reiss is projecting them to keep five. But if one is cut, I'd expect it to be Morris: he makes twice as much and is eight years older.

  • I'd be happy to have Morris 4 a year. then draft Kendall hunter next....")

  • Bobby Carpenter on the bubble here in Tx...thoughts? Also for those that don't get to see the Texans...connor Barwin has looked great in pre-season

  • Colts cut DE Marcus Howard. Probably not a good scheme fit for us but is a freakish athlete (ran a 4.47 at the Combine).

    It'll be interesting to see where he ends up. I bet several special teams coaches are lobbying to bring him in.

  • Aloy...Bobby carpenter?

    Aloy...Bobby carpenter?

    No thanks. Just don't think he's very good.

  • What are the rules? If someone is cut by another team do you have to sign him to your active roster or can you sign him to the practice squad if you are low team on the totem pole? Is he essentially a free agent?

  • Brian Russell got cut by Seattle, I say bring him back. He may not be fast but he was a beast at safety.

    NFL.com's Jason La Canfora is hearing that Jaguars OL Tony Pashos might get cut:

    Jason La Canfora said:

    Tony Pashos has starting tackle experience, but he has been moved inside by the Jaguars. He is set to make $4.3 million this season, and for a team that doesn’t have a big budget and is looking at blackouts, that could be an issue. A team like the Seahawks might end up making sense for Pashos via trade or if he is released, given Seattle’s offensive line woes.

    According to former Browns/Ravens scout Daniel Jeremiah, the Browns are a likely suitor:

    If JAX cuts RT Tony Pashos, I can almost guarantee the Browns sign him. Kokinis loved him in BLT. Both Greek by the way...

    They would have to do something drastic to clear some Cap space if they want to make a run at Pashos. Fraley, Heiden or another veteran with a big salary?

  • If Pashos gets cut, he may want to sign a one year, prove it deal, then get a big deal in next year's potentially cap-free offseason. That would make him somewhat more affordable.

  • Ravens cut Cedric Peerman: high character guy who's a very good receiver out of the backfield.

    Should be interesting to see if he clears waivers.

    I simply don't get the obsession with Russell. Dude was frozen yogurt, at best.

    You know, a suitable proxy in a pinch, but far from the real thing.

    Guys with only a few years in the league first go through the waiver process; if you claim a guy then, he has to go on your 53 man roster.

    However, if no one claims him, you can then sign him to your practice squad. Technically, you have just as much an opportunity to sign him as the team who cut him, but guys tend to prefer to stick with the team they were with in camp.

    But in some cases, a guy is so offended at being cut that he declines an offer to join that team's p-squad, instead signing elsewhere. Former FSU LB Buster Davis did that a few years ago when the Cardinals cut him.
