man... what sucks about Tebow getting released... my twitter account is going to be repeating that all day... hard to siphon through all that for the new cuts.
Good. When they paired Sione Fua together with Terrell McClain as their starting DTs I was shocked and horrified. I called it the worst DT tandem in the NFL and I believe I was right. To go from THAT to having Star Lotulelei and Kawann Short...woof. What a difference.
Bengals cut FB John Conner today. If Miami's really looking for a true blocking FB (hey, they had interest in Vonta Leach), this would be a good pickup.
ouch.... Evan Silva @evansilva 1m Ramses Barden would've been good if he didn't run like there was a grand piano attached to his back.
Yeah Ramses is a pretty intriguing name. But Zoltan has to be the most intriguing name thus far. The other day when a player named C.O. Prime was cut, that had to be the most intriguing name.
PFF has a live blog going on today for anyone interested: https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2013/08/31/live-blog-countdown-to-cutdown-831/ I like the way they discuss some of the players and post ratings along with it
Seriously the only guy that intrigues me thus far amongst today's cuts is the fullback John Conner. Dolphins are obviously weak there. I liked Vonta Leach so there's no reason I wouldn't also like John Conner. If we needed a punter I've always thought of Zoltan Mesko as a very good one. But we have one of the best in the league. I think about 10 or 15 teams get to boast that they have "one of the best punters in the game" though. Seems to be the way the position is.
Yes, the name. His middle name is Extra. Because he was conceived when a Ramses Extra condom broke one night. That's my guess anyway.
Les Bowen @LesBowen 2m Source close to situation says Eagles haven't said anything yet to Danny Watkins, re cutdowns...
Mike Garafolo @MikeGarafolo 3m Cowboys are cutting WR Tim Benford, who had a nice little preseason, but are hoping he clears waivers so they can add him to practice squad.
I just read that he had nearly $250,000 of his contract guaranteed by the Eagles when he signed ... not bad for an UDFA
It just makes you realize how bad the Dolphins drafts have been the last four years, because the Patriots have won the AFC East each of those years and handled the Dolphins like the Dolphins were their little sisters. In fact the last time the Dolphins played the Patriots, the Dolphins scored exactly zero points against that terrible Patriots defense and all those bad draft picks.
Adam Caplan @caplannfl 39s No surprise. Subject to waivers. RT @RapSheet: Source: #Eagles OL Danny Watkins, former 1st round pick, is being released.
