Notable Cuts so far
 
Glennon QB- Bears
Willie Young LB- Bears
Stewart RB - Panthers
Coleman DB - Panthers
Demps S - Eagles
C. Johnson DE - Panthers
Parker FS -Chiefs
Hawley C- TB
Ivory RB- Jax
C. Baker DL- TB
Martin RB- TB
Ijalana OL - NYJ
Cushing LB -Hou

Interesting list, but not sure anybody we'd want. We could rent a pass rusher this year and focus on other positions, and Ijalana is decent and versatile

Sean McDerrmott & the Bills wasted no time picking (2/26/18) up Kurt Coleman.

Cushing was hurt this year... does she still have tread on his tires?

I’ve been seeing this talk going around with Michael Thomas even trying to recruit him on Twitter. Apparently he will count $18.75 mil against the cap this season. If they cut him before the new league year they’ll free up $4.8 mil but have $9.3 mil in dead cap.

They definitely have to get his deal restructured. Would they dare take on that much dead cap and release him?

It would be a blessing though. He’s definitely the upgraded Kenny Vacarro.

I'd like to know more about what caused the problems with the Jets the lat couple of years. He was pretty productive for a good while there before a sudden drop-off.
Would be intriguing to have him, Jordan, Hendrickson and Rankins on the DL.

Mathieu would be an upgrade over Vaccaro, but he has too leave a lot of games being only 5-9, 186lbs (and that's being generous)...

He was scheduled to make 19mil this season and I just don't see spending that kind of money when we have other contracts to extend...

Much respect for the man he's become and his teammates in AZ have helped him to be, but his cost/benefit is not a fit for us...

Not sure what this gif has to do with the thread, but, ALWAYS happy to see a Trainspotting reference.

No more old broke down LB's. I like what we have now. We have a great rotation. Get a couple more hogs up front to tie up the blockers.

Teo
Robertson
Mauti
Klein ....
Anzalone (?)
Stupar

Good depth/role players but we have no legit linebacker in the middle.

I can't see how anyone can say we are OK at the position.

Here is a recent analysis at the LB position.

Re: Notable Cuts so far
 
Teo is a great run stuffer but he aint making the pick Deion Jones(ex LSU LBer.....just sayin SP!) made in the end zone against us. And Tyrann Mathieu would be perfect for us. Especially if we get one more pass rusher, Mathieu has elite ball skills and could rack up INTs for us. Mathieu is the real deal. I doubt they let hin go but I guess we can dream. Go get him Mike.
