Look for the 5 remaining players to be procedural moves like placing Bonnafon and Shi Smith on IR 

Smith misses the entire year if he goes on IR now. Doubt it. Maybe Bonnafon. Think you are looking at trades at TE, S, and LS. Will have to dump Roy or Hoskins too, I think.

Well, JJ Jansen is also a good non-Temple player, so I'm assuming we trade him for a late-round pick so we can use the shitty LS we drafted who at no point, per the Panthers' reporters, did he look like he was anything as good as Jansen.

I mean….the vet looking better than the rookie? Crazy mannnnn

this brings me to question, do you think that other players and players with Temple/Baylor ties know they are safe from getting cut from Rhule? 

Firstly Kirkwood and Tecklenburg are gone. 

Secondly, besides Whitehead, which Temple / Baylor player has let us down so far?

Yes he does. If you are IR'd BEFORE the 53 man cut, you're done for the year. Once you make the 53 you can be 6 week or 3 week IR'd, and eligible to return.

They can't IR him until after 4pm today, so someone who is getting cut before 4 today will be back tmrw, unless they can work some timing magic out to avoid exposing anyone to waivers

    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
