Gettleman expected to release Gamble

[shinallsm]

Good riddance, always injured, and never played up to his salary at all.

[scarface]

Completely rebuild.

Axe stew AND dwill, dare I say.

I honestly think neither are extreme threats anymore. I remember they were both subject to break huge runs any second, now they fight for every yard they can get.

[The Golden Child]

Chris has always been a good CB but never a shut down caliber CB. We're paying him like a Pro Bowler, he'll be 30 next year, he's replaceable.

When it comes to meeting this fan bases standards, who has???

[Brooklyn Bully]

Watch us bring in no one as decent as him. Norman and Cap'n might be the starters.

[PhillyB]

i can't remember the last time i can consciously remember him being an integral part of the team.

he'll be missed, but not sorely.

[Lumps]

I hope not but, if we can jsut get some beasts at DT we have a above average line, and LBs...corners not so important but even still I can't imagine Captain being our #1 option.

He looked good in that top ten defense.....fair well chris

[CRA]

Really? You've forgotten about 2011 when he was #1 in the league when QBs threw his way?

But looks at his last 3 years

2012- injured

2011- great

2010- benched

Gamble hasn't been reliable in his health or play

unfortunately those moments have been few and far between.

he's just not someone that can be relied upon, esp. for that cap hit.

moving on won't be that big of a deal.

he was on the sidelines when the D was good.

[dugbug]

Going to be a jagged pill this offseason watching these guys get cut

pretty much how i'm looking at it.

and before that gets interpreted as gamble hate, i've got nothing against him. i think he's talented, but he's not really been an irreplaceable part of the defense. whether the defense was doing well or not, the defense never seemed to take that much of a step backward when he wasn't on the field.

i think the front seven and to an extent rivera's D allow us to do pretty well with less talent in the secondary. that's not to say we shouldn't address it in the offseason, but the front 7 will make it easier on whoever is in the secondary.
