[Cat'sGrowl]

Its official I am going on IR today. I am gonna get healthy and come back bigger, stronger, and faster for next year.

per Twitter

6 more cuts to be made today.

Good news, actually. Keeps him on the roster for next year.

What the hell?

Uh, what's so perplexing?

This. He was heading for the cutting block and is not eligible for the practice squad.

Are we trying to get to 80 or 75 players? I thought 80, but I read somewhere 75.

80 by today, 53 by Saturday (I believe).

None of the six (if that is all we are going to cut today) will surprise anyone in the least. Many fans probably won't even know who they are.

This sucks. I did NOT want to see Hartsock on the field, let alone the roster.

Is Barny under contract through next year? I wish he would get a fair shot one day, he's gonna be good if he does.

[ncbobcat]

You know what this means, six WRs are going to stick now. I thought, and others too, that there was a good possibility that we could carry 4 TEs. That's not happening now. Martin or Clowney just got a roster spot...the question is which one?

Hartsock wasn't going anywhere to begin with. He was brought in for his blocking ability.

Yea makes since he was going to get cut anyways.

This is assuming that we don't pick up someone after cuts down to 53...I could definitely see us scoop up a receiver.

That's how we got Clowney and Martin in the first place...other team's castoffs. We are not going to get a teir 1-A WR after cuts. Anyone cut will probably be along the same lines of the our two guys on our bubble. If a player is worth keeping, teams can get creative in creating a roster spot.
