Boston could be decent, I always felt like he was out of position FS because he was poo in coverage

His tackling is even worse though.

I'll be nervous if it is. Short will be one. You only have two. We need to keep one in our back pocket for Teddy if need be. If we don't, then the prospect of Teddy being our QB next year becomes very, very real and if that happens, my Sunday afternoons this fall become very open.

Didn't we already release Short a couple of days ago?

I never saw anything on if that designation was being applied to him.

There was a safety that everybody really liked at the Senior Bowl, a guy that Matt Rhule mentioned specifically when he was asked about draftable players.

Naturally, I've forgotten his name

UCF S Richie Grant

Grant (six-foot, 194 pounds) was one of the true stars in Mobile, boosting his draft stock with a strong week of practice. His ball skills will be a solid addition to whatever team drafts him. Grant totaled 10 interceptions and 17 pass breakups during college. He also forced five fumbles. Most draft experts are expecting him to come off the board in the second round. Carolina could use safety help, so he’s worth considering with the No. 40 overall pick.

Wouldn't be surprised if Burris was also moved on from.

It’s coming

I was assuming we designated it a post-June 1st. I just read that we didn't.

I read that Short is being released now and not designated as a post June 1 cut. If we don’t designate Boston as a post June 1 cut then we save less than $1 million by cutting him, which is kind of a bad move imo. The more exciting question is, where is all this money going to go?

[vorbis]

my understanding is that Kawaan Short was not a June 1 release. especially since the team already announced it and stuff. if he was a June 1 cut, they couldn't make it official until the start of the league year. so with Boston looking like a June 1 cut, that leaves space for another June 1 cut if the Panthers are so inclined.

KK was not a post-6/1 cut but Tre was.

Also, safety market looking pretty stacked

I'd be for it.

Feels like it's been forever since we had a really good safety (other than if you count Chinn)

He didn't hit the shitter. It was just like Teddy. He was who he's always been.

He played pretty well on those one year deals, not fantastic but fairly well. 

He did not play fairly well last year.

Yeah, the "salary cap reasons" for waiting on Tre is likely that he's going to be designated post-June 1st.
