Youβve dropped Warren Zevon in here more than once. Dude was a lyricist.

Did anyone ask they they gender. Or are you making an assumption.
Linda said he, Warren said sheβ¦.most bases covered.
It came from YaYa?
Think Cox is much more likely to be claimed than Wilson and I'll be shocked if the team does anything different than last year at RB. Jadakis Bonds has probably done enough for a spot on the PS.
No question the guy can play football (Cox) Will he keep the off field stuff out of his orbit?
Wilson gets cut. He already was released by Denver. Lotta speed though.
Keep 7 WRs. 2 TE's, 9 O-Line and 6 D-Line. Willing to bet nobody claims DeGaura if they cut him.
Final 13-15 positions on roster will be interesting and you can be certain Gutey is watching other teams cuts too.
There's only about 30 players I'm convinced cannot be cut. Guys like Jaire, Love, Watson, Kenny Clark, etc. - the last 23, you can make an argument.
"Final" 53 is hardly final. Injuries happen and players can and will be brought back including some from other teams. Hi Rasul
Given that the Arizona Cardinals are in full tank, I mean rebuilding mode, I wonder what it would take to acquire Budda Baker?
The only thing preventing this defense from being elite is the safety position. Baker has this year and next year left on his contract and AZ isnβt going anywhere with him on the roster.
Gute- make the call
Bill Huber is out with his final 53 and he's got Toure on the PS. That wouldn't be all that surprising and his spot on the 53 is really becoming more difficult to justify.
Toure definitely not one of my locks. Cut him and I don't believe anyone snags him on waivers.
That's really the key....figure out which guys none of the other 31 teams want
They have decisions to make just like every team does.
@RobDemovsky: Packers coach Matt LaFleur said he's not going to get too in depth with roster questions today but did say they probably won't make their moves until Tuesday.
After the draft, a peronnel source ID'd Brenton Cox and Malik Heath as the top Packers undrafted rookies. Both might have been drafted if not for off-field issues. MLF said they came in with "clean slates" and have been "key contributors." Heath seems like a lock, Cox a good bet.
I think they've both earned a spot.
I agree. Neither would make it to PS.
Wilson helped by not talking any to the house this past Saturday. Imagine if he houses one or two more. That would have made things harder. He looked pedestrian.
No disrespect intended to Wilson, but if I had a nickel for every time there was a RB that had a great camp but ultimately didn't make the team...
If there was room to carry a 4th RB on the roster, even if he was limited to ST snaps only, we'd be set. Unfortunately, reality doesn't allow for that.
I do hope they can keep him on the PS. He'd be great to develop over the next year or so.
I've seen talk of trying to work out a trade with Yosh and if they can't, cutting him? The Bears and Jets will jump on him with both feet.
I think a trade could be a possibility, but flat out cutting a ( for all intensive purposes ) starting-level LT is asinine.
Yosh has experience these young guys don't, and that's hard to replace with 2nd-year players.
However, if Walker has actually 'beat out' Yosh this preseason, then so be it.
Yosh has trade value. If they don't want him, they won't cut him.
They could also keep him as luxury depth for the season to make sure 10 is taken care of, lose him in FA and get a comp pick. That would be another way to clear his salary off the books for next year.
I hope Rasheed Walker is what it looks like he might be. Talk about riches.
9 or 10 O-Line??....can't wait to see on Tuesday
What would be adequate return for a Yosh trade? Jets make sense, so maybe a 3rd? But is a 3rd enough to strip depth at an important position, made even more important with a young QB? Plus, do we know if Bakh is back in 2024? $40m cap hit and $19m dead cap in 2024, so a $21m savings if cut. It's last year of his deal so any restructure would need additional years, which Bakh could say no to. So does he even want to come back for a rebuild with a young QB? Yosh might be the LT of the future.
A 3rd for Nijman? Save some for Goldie. If heβs the LT of the future, Love is screwed. Heβs a lesser version of Marshall Newhouse. Nobody is giving up much of anything for Yosh Nijman. Heβs a stopgap/backup/journeyman type.
The Jets and Bears both have better tackles than Nijman.
Mekhi Becton played the last two games for the Jets and played well. He will start at RT. Duane Brown will start at LT. If the Jets even consider acquiring another Tackle, it wonβt be before the season starts unless an injury occurs.
If we're going to get a 3rd for him we may as well cut him instead and let the poor 3rd round kid have a chance to develop on a team that knows how to develop 3rd rounders.

Dang that's bold. Cut the punter and keep an extra running back. We don't need to punt!
I haven't followed the punting but surprised he was beat out.
Iβm less worried about the punting as I am about the holding.
@Maynard posted:
Wow. Didn't see that coming due to the holding skills he brought to the table.
Appears to be a very bold move. I canβt reveal my sources, but Iβm told this really didnβt come down to his kicking skills. Turns out he hit on LeFleurβs wife one time. You just canβt do that!
Guess they wanted a real Irishman handling the duties!

I do not buy the hit on the wife thing. Only because unless it was in the last few days, he would have been gone long ago.

Looks like a cap saving move to me?
Whelan's hang time is ridiculous. Only save about $1M by cutting him...this is obviously about the future. O'Donnell will never be a Pro Bowler...Whelan just might be. He has the only thing you can't coach...leg strength.

Agreed. He seems good on outside runs, but on inside runs it looks like he just runs to the spot, closes his eyes and smashed into someone. Not too shifty. There was a definite difference with Taylor.
