He's a decent contributor and I think we need Wynn's leadership in the locker room with so many new free agents............
P.S. he's from notre dame.....my fav college team too........... :course this has nothing to do with my sentiments towards the guy :rolleyes:

I think they's cut Patten before Wynn. You can never have enough defensive line depth. Wynn like Daniels can also play inside. GW is going to have a alot of versitile players this season, something he loves. He is known as one of the leaders is in this lockeroom Gibbs respects that.
Patten on the other hand has two strikes against him. One, he cannot play special teams...McCants couldn't or wouldn't...where did that get him as the 4th reciever...out the door. Two, Gibbs has always had a low tolerace for guys who stir things up in the Press. Could the fact that he gets paid way too much to be a 4th reciever be strike three...we'll see soon enough.

he hasn't stirred anything up, and he's a MUCH MUCH better WR than mccants and unlike mccants, football is his priority.

agreed, lets not forget... patten is still a good receiver. I would have been appeased w/ a receiving corps of just Lloyd, Moss, Patten... etc. Would I rather have randel el... of course, I just didn't think it was going to happen.
I think right now our focus should be depth at CB, LB, OL, DL... thats pretty much accepted by everyone I think. Lets not have another instance of sub-par CB's not being able to fill in for an injured Springs. That got a little ridiculous.

We need quality depth. We are fine with the Cap. Absolutly no reason to cut one of the leaders of the team.

Saw it comming...he was overpaid anyway. Anyone know if cutting him will hurt our cap.

it'd only save 400k, he's not getting cut.
he's now a DT/DE tweener that'll spend a lot of time inside.

As per the Times report today, if we do release him, it will be after June 1. We'll see...

the times article is wrong on that though. in the new cba, you can realease 2 players AT ANY TIME in the offseason and count them as old june 1st cuts as far as spreading the cap hit... that way teams get their savings and the players get on the market sooner.
