Opinions: is Frank Alexander a possible cut?

I had high hopes for him this year, but not looking to promising so far. The trend seems to be that Rakim Cox has potential, hard to say so after a few plays against  2nd and 3rd stringers....actually would be happy if he panned out. Would D.G cut F.A loose if he doesn't show out in the next three games?

Do we even have enough depth at the DE position to cut him? Always liked Frank and would hate to see him fail. Could big Frank be getting his walking papers or be retained due to the lack of a starting caliber DE for rotation purposes? What you got?

He's fighting for a roster spot just like the other DEs except for Johnson. He's got some knocks against him and the suspension last year was stupid on his part. We could have used him big time, but he let us down. He could have been building a stockpile to better guarantee his job, but instead he was sitting on his couch.

It is too early to judge after one pre-season game, but he's going to have to actually work for it to keep a spot. In the NFL world of "What have you done for me lately?" his best answer has been nothing.

Good luck to him, but there are other DEs gunning for him and he doesn't have a bulletproof vest.

Just testing the waters here to see what the feeling of the huddle might be. As SCP said, DG takes no prisoners.... .don't produce and you will be gone. We don't have a starting DE right now and R.R said as much. With the suspensions last year,  the powers that be might not be so quick to give him a pass.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
