I guess the argument on the sidelines that Payton & Pittman had probably had some bearing on his being cut?(That and Pierre Thomas flat out wanted it more)

Where's the link? So far this looks like a guess to me without a link.

I believe all 4 of the players mentioned in the first post are eligible for the practice squad. My big shocker is Evans. You can't tell me Fincher had a better offseason and preseason than he did.

I seriously doubt Pittman will clear waivers....thats alot of teams to pass on him.....

I agree. I cannot imagine why we would keep Fincher over Evans. Also, Pittman will never come back to our PS IMO. He will likely end up on Cincinnati's active roster or another team's PS. Why sign to our PS when we have one of the best RB corps in the NFL?

If these cuts are true we are going to be keeping P. Thomas, Stecker, and six receivers in my opinion. Lots of skill players. Lots of guys who can play special teams. i.e. Copper, Bush, Stecker, Thomas, Moore, maybe Meacham.

From what I heard on the replay of the game this morning, they said that Payton said he was going to keep the 53 best players and he didn't care when or in what spot they were drafted. He was going to keep players that showed that they wanted to play. Pittman was even mentioned, so if he got cut it really wouldn't surprise me. Thomas clearly showed he wanted it more than Pittman. I think Pittman realized to late that just because he was drafted and Thomas wasn't, he had a slot locked up.I like the way Payton thinks, show me you want the job and it's yours, I don't care how you got here. Look at Lance Moore, he showed he wanted it and looks like he's a lock for the final 53, so too is Pierre Thomas if you ask me. He surley showed he wanted the job. I like the fact that we will have 53 players that want to be onthat field every down and will be damned mad if they're not. Just give me the damned ball. Sound familier?Give me 53 players like that and i'll show you the way to the Super Bowl!

P.S. If it's true that they cut Palko, you can bet Payton has somebody in mind to replace him already and it will probably surprise all of us. Hang on to your hats boys and girls.
