Sad when the best thing you can say about a player is that he was a great locker room presence, but he was a great locker room presence.

I'd be happy with him as a back-up at vet minimum if nobody else signs him.

If Person's math is right, I believe cutting Gamble would put us under the cap, though not by a huge amount.

And then with possible cuts/restructures of beason, d-will and gross and even Anderson (most likely restructures) it could give us a little spending room

I don't think they are necessarily planning on keeping Gamble. If they keep him till after March 12th they can shop him. If we got something crazy like a third for him that would be a world of difference than just cutting him.

I don't think he makes the roster come kickoff.

If we were to get a solid trade, we would part ways. Otherwise, what incentive do we have to create another BIG hole on our team? There aren't any good CBs out there that we can get for cheaper than Gamble. We can find other ways to clear some cap room than cutting one of our top players.

How about 7.8 million incentives? Gettlemen may have a CB in mind come draft or FA and Gamble has been injured quite a bit as of lately.

I'm not arguing he's not a good player or that it wouldn't create a hole, I'm just speculating on a possibility of why he could be taking so long when we all thought that would be one of the first cuts.

Like I said, we can clear some money elsewhere without cutting him. My speculation on why it is taking so long is because he isn't going anywhere.

And yes, I hope Gettlemen does address CB in the draft or FA too. I doubt the FO thinks it is a good idea to go into a season with our CBs being Dockery, Thomas, and some mid-low level FA.
