Surprise veteran cut?

not a surprise, but munnerlyn is on thin ice.

Not really. He’s been running as our starting nickel all camp so far and has a contract that we can’t really get out of at all this year.

I would have said Munnerlyn but I think with the Cockrell injury his chances of making the team went up big time, since he has experience both as a veteran and in the system, as well as having played on the outside and in the nickel.

I could see Kyle Love being cut if there is another DT either at camp or cut with upside.

If the Manhertz injury lingers, I could see us reaching an injury settlement with him and keeping Olsen, Ian Thomas, and Armah as the 3rd TE/FB.  I think that is contingent on believing there is a 4th RB worthy to keep for ST purposes behind CMC, CJ Anderson, and CAP.

I really don't see any big surprises.  The biggest one to me will be if we really are comfortable rolling with GG as the backup QB.  That to me will be the biggest unknown come cut time.  And the off-chance there is a veteran DB or Oline the coaching staff thinks will be an upgrade.

    • Are you arguing that his height deficiencies and footwork within the pocket have not been a present issue clearly seen on his game tape particularly in the games he struggled in? Because that's simply denying what everyone in this fanbase who have watched the games have seen. It's interesting how hardline BY fans here quickly and effortlessly pivot from whailing about being victimized to becoming the aggressor and hurling out allegations of bias and hatred. And at the end of the day while Bryce Young clearly improved significantly from the first two games of the season the reality of the situation is he still finished 42nd in yards per pass attempt behind Mac Jones and tied with Caleb Williams and 38th in passing yards per game behind the likes of Gardner Minshew Aidan O'Connell Drake Maye and Will Levis. Furthermore it took Bryce Young 23 games to surpass Panthers legend Kyle Allen's 13 games worth of passing yardage in 2019. So if your argument is he became a head and shoulders better passer over the course of the second half of the season the reality is we're still waiting to see that growth this season. And there is nothing controversial or vitriolic about saying so in the mind of a rational
    • Cam regularly threw for less than 200 yards and nobody questioned he was elite. He averaged 219 yds per game for his career.  You seem to be way too hung up on yards as a stat.  By that definition Jameis Winston should have been MVP by now. 
    • So... what metrics for production do you believe display these issues/limitations best? Are we only using total passing yards, height, and weight thresholds? If so, then what are those thresholds?
