Huddle question:June cuts are days away...what will happen

Recommended Posts

Just a question ....will anyone go or will we be looking for a starting tackle or just backups?? I would have to think DLo may be safe for now(god bless him and his family) and it seems that the front office is happy with the Chandler/Bell combination. Opinions on what may come down......maybe no big oline signings,no more wide outs or secondary signings of any importance? Or do they do something unexpected? Let's see who has a crystal ball

A.KA. Are they really happy with the online or will they bring in the best player available because they are blowing smoke about what we have.

I think, from recalling prior Cap analysts around here, Godfrey was due to be one, but because he took a giant pay cut, that's doubtful.  I'm not sure who else we could cut and save money doing so.  We're still a couple years on Deangelo, Stewart, CJ, Olsen or Kalil being viable cuts for cap relief.

 

So who knows.  I do bet Gettleman will be watching the cut list like a hawk.  That's my completely useless contribution =)

I think there will be a lot of threads here screaming for us to snap up up guys (Mostly OTs followed by WR) that were cut.  Also think that a lot of guys designated as June 1 cuts have already been designated.  Aside from that I dont know that much will happen.  I believe more will happen once TC starts but that is just my .02.

After June 1st, I will get cut.  Probably on my hand or arm or somewhere.  Most players will get cut sometime after June 1st, shaving, working in the yard, or during training camp.  Maybe some of them by their wife or girlfriend.  In Michael Sam's case, boyfriend.

 

I do know we get about 1 million in cap space after June 1st because Smitty was  a June 1st cut.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
