Interesting ... this is actually a good time to do it ... it leaves breathing room to implement whatever plan they already formulated. And Nicks at RT may not be so far fetched...

I was a stinchcomb defender for all of last season when he was injured and throughout camp, but I lost the last thread of faith in him during that SF game, he got manhandled by a mediocre DE at best. I dunno why people are hating on Strief so much though, I mean he hasn't gotten many first team reps, and when he came into the game on Friday the SF line was totally off-balance to his side, even then he still held his own for a couple seconds against 2 defenders at a time at one point. (Chase ended up having to roll out away from his side and threw incomplete, Drew probably would have taken a shot before that point.)

I don't think he is a pro-bowler, but I think he can start.


I would rather have our best tackle on the blind side please.

Might make running the ball to the right side unstoppable! Kruetz, Evans, Nicks Interesting.

ROFL...

Oh, whatever, you guys are petty and ridiculous. Clearly Stinch was one of the better RT's in the NFL before he got hurt. That isn't even in question.

Someday that's going to be Drew Brees. I'd hope that when that day comes fans give him a little more respect than this.

Now if you'll excuse me I have to go throw up a little.

Whaat? I totally didn't see this coming. Sucks.

Thanks for everything, Stinch.

I agree did not see this one coming - at all.

Does this free up a good amount in cap money?

I am pretty surprised he got cut, but he played very poorly in the pre-season game. Dont know how good or bad he was in camp.

But the must have seen that someone else was playing better.

Plus it frees up cap room.

It frees up cap room, but somehow an offensive line with a HOF center and maybe the two best guards in the league is the weak link on the team. It frees up cap room, but who do we bring in with the money we've saved? How do we get better?
