Four cuts today

New Orleans Saints waive four players

Flanders, Palmer, Hamm and Uzo-Diribe

I'm disappointed that Flanders was such a non-factor, but I honestly think they just like Strozier that much. I suppose Hamm could be a PS guy but it's hard to prove yourself worthy of a spot when you can't get on the field. I really would've liked to see Palmer get a chance fielding kickoffs and punts with that speed, but oh well.

Maybe your agent can find a contract some where else.

Sometimes teams release players early when they know they won't make the team but feel they would have a shot somewhere else. Others they will keep around as camp bodies.

SP had basically said there would be cuts before this weekend.

Homer, you should be happy that "Stupid Flanders" was cut.

We were just discussing Strozier and the number of opportunities he's been getting...

It's like the Coleman situation, Coach Payton just seems to like a guy and they end up sticking around and surprising alot of people...

No surprises here, I think I heard Payton say if he had to.. Again if he had to he could make all the cuts... So he already knows who is on and who is not... Just trying to see who shines and if he is right or not...

Strozier does deserve to continue. I like him... Also, it was a big stretch for any undrafted trying to crack the D Line this season...

Easy cuts

Good luck to these young men; hope they can latch on with another team that is not in the NFC South.
