First Cuts

Down to 75 by Tuesday

Any surprises expected?
There is a lot of low-hanging fruit still hanging on.

the young DB's have surprised me, and it looks like at least two FA's will make it (I was clearly wrong on Crawley a few weeks ago)

I'd like TommyLee to stick another week (I was half -right on him in a much earlier post)

Re: First Cuts

I think this is when we can put players on IR without having to waive them first so I imagine a lot of our moves will be putting guys like Kikaha and Hoomanawanui on IR.

Re: First Cuts

Probably won't be any more surprise cuts after Keenan Lewis but Tull could be a goner next week.

Re: First Cuts

No surprises on the 1st cut, but I could see some on the next round.

Re: First Cuts

I didn't see the Lewis cut as a surprise. I kind of figured he was one more injury away from an outright release.

The play of the young corners in his absence was reassurance

And it says something when the Steelers after a look have concerns about his hip.

Hopefully we can find a guard after all these cuts

Re: First Cuts

I am predicting a huge cut. SP will realize he sucks as a coach and cut himself.....

Not a surprise at all. I read he showed up in really bad shape.
