Here comes the cuts

Amazing.

Probably hard to see with your hands over your eyes

What is the first thing that jumps out at you in the clip ayn??

The first thing that jumped out at me was - 'gee, he looks awfully svelt there'

So, based on observation #1, a question arises - when was that game played?? Did he put on 70 lbs of gut from the end of the college season to the combine??

No, he put on 70 lbs of gut from the time that game was played (Oct. 23, 2010) to today.

Think maybe that 70 lbs of gut slowed him down a bit??

Surprised with all their cuts, the Raiders kept both punters, Kluwe and King (younger and better preseason measurables).

Vikes kept FB Zach Line (for now), an undrafted converted HB from SMU who's part of a one-year committed piece from Peter King's MMQB site.

I've liked David Gettis since he put on a Baylor cap during the Army high-school all-star game. Maybe once he heals, he'll get a call-up to be a cheap WR for the Redskins.

Sure looks.like we'll have a plentiful, if not good, FA QB crop to play around with.

Keeping Kluwe makes sense in terms of public relations.

Think about it - Mr. Cheerleader for all things gay, the Bay Area, a shitty team in need of ticket sales and hype??

Still, Kluwe is a pretty shitty punter - it will be hard for them to carry him for long, at least justified on his ability. He's a mouthy prima donna though, I'll give him that, and that will certainly appeal to the gay community in the area.

Okay, this just made me and my girlfriend laugh out loud. And she hardly knows anything about football, though maybe she knows a lot about God.

So, if we keep Mulumba and Shields and others, does that speak to Ted's smug ego of keeping undrafted players he sniffed out > Ted's smug ego of keeping drafted players? I want to prioritize my overgeneralized narratives properly.

(I thought we had a good rep among agents as a place for UDFAs to get a fair shake.)

The exact word used to describe Allen Barbre, as I recall.

I didn't notice any mauled defensive linemen in the preseason 2nd halves.

Barbre was a brawler. Taylor is almost exactly the physical opposite. All size and anchor, not athletic like Barbre.

Don't know a thing about that center from TEN, but maybe he's worth a look. Doubt TT does though -- I think he rolls with Van Rot(t)en until Tretter comes off the PUP. Agree B.J.Coleman is a placeholder for another QB...for some reason Trent Edwards and David Carr jumped out to me, probably from bad fantasy football flashbacks from 5 years ago. I honestly have few ideas what TT is up to, which is SOP and doesn't surprise me. I'm sure they have a few irons in the fire and are working on them.

The Miller vs. Boyd thing isn't a huge deal to me since (as others have said) they probably won't see many if any snaps. Jolly should get those snaps instead. Miller outplayed Boyd, but Boyd has that dreaded "potential", he's a draft pick, and he has better size than Miller. A lot of teams will pass on Miller because he's Mike Daniels sized, and those guys can get swallowed up/stonewalled in the trenches by 6-6 OLinemen. Besides, having two DL that size makes Bob McGinn write incessantly about needing to get bigger, etc., and that debate jumped the shark months ago.

Was just going to ask about practice squad updates when I saw this thread:

Your original claim is that "I have yet to see him make a single play," and you included college and pros.

Someone showed you a play he made, which you promptly discounted.

Just as you discounted the Packers' SB and any subsequent success.

Obviously, if it doesn't fit your preconceived notions, you simply discount or disregard.

It was from 3 freaking years ago - good grief; the kids pubes hadn't even grown in yet.

Get a clue.

While we are looking for a clue, I would also like to see documentation that Boyd has gained 70 pounds.
