Question about Kugzilla and Amini

What happens to these guys on the offseason?

Will they be cut, or is too much money invested in them already to give them the boot?

Neither guy contributes anything to the team, and I have all but forgotten they still have a roster spot.

Oh well, I guess the can play Beebop and Rocksteady in the next Ninja Turtles movie....

Amini will be quality depth next year. Kug seems like a lost cause at this point.

 

Amini is not quality depth. He's trash. Maybe his injury had something to do with it but he was so bad this year my eyes bled when I saw him on the field.

They both will compete for a backup spot next year.  People here have been way too unfair to Amini this year.  Basing opinion on how he has played this season is not a good baseline to use.  I think most forget that he was coming off an ACL, and, IMO, probably should have started the year on the PUP.  I don't believe he was ever physically ready to compete on the field.  But he was getting it before his injury last year, so give him time to fully recover, and I think he'll be ok.  Although, he won't get his starting spot back because Norwell and Turner have positioned themselves to be our future at G, Amini can provide good depth if he is healthy.

 

On the other hand, we don't know enough about Kugbila to really know what he can be.  He hasn't really played, so none of us has seen enough to form any kind of intelligent opinion on his ability...and basing it on the fact he came from a small school is small minded.  My biggest issue with him is that he hasn't shown he can stay healthy, and if he can't even make it to preseason, then he may never be someone we can count on.  But there is no reason not to give him a chance to earn a backup role in camp.  If he gets hurt again, then no loss, but if he can stay healthy for the first time, we can actually get a chance to see what we have in him.  Basically, he's a low risk guy that's worth taking a flier on for one more year.

    • The difference is about how much player input is allowed and encouraged in the decision making process. Top down teams tend to dictate to players how everything is handled. Disagreements are handled by the coach and players are expected to do what they are told regardless of what they think or feel.  Players are perceived as commodities to be used until we find better. In player led teams player input is encouraged and valued. Players and especially leaders are expected to settle their own disagreements and be accountable to the team but mostly to each other. Players are family to be appreciated and supported in their growth. Is the reality of football the same in both? Yeah there are limited positions, football is a business and winning is the bottom line. Coaches get final say and run the program because that is their job. But in player led teams they feel valued, appreciated, part of a larger whole. Most people who have worked at multiple jobs know exactly what I am talking about. When players try to run the show and don't value  coach input that isn't a player led team, that is a circus which we surely are familiar with in our past.  
    • For our pics and trades tonight and tmrw.  Remember, Aho was a 2nd rounder and Slavin was a 4th rounder. 
    • Seems to be the consensus from the talking heads. I really wish we had double dipped at center in the 2nd round. Sion will never play in the league.
