Well Big Joe is gone

Joe Salave'a was released. I was really pulling for him, I thought he would make a come back this season. I take it as a surpise cut, hopefully last one

Salave'a Released

Wow that is extremely surprising. I guess that means they like Lorenzo Alexander, or Matthias Askew better, or maybe they're bringing in another DT??

I'm a little surprised. I thought Joe looked good this pre-season. I think this must have been a particularly uncomfortable meeting for Williams and Gibbs. I guess we should be encouraged that they are making the tough decisions. Hopefully they are also the right ones.

Also gone are McAddley, Schmitt and Tucker. WR, FB, and OL respectively.

He was getting burned big time in the 2nd quarter and 3rd quarter of the Pitt. game. I like him but was not getting it done.

Re: Well Big Joe is gone

I'm suprised at this move, Sal was finally healthy. I thought he would have a good season and add nice depth.

That was my impression. Plus his mom died last season which I heard had a big impact on him (maybe more then most since he's a Somoa)

He was simply outplayed, that's all. Wasn't Alexander the kid that caught the helmet in the mouth? His hustle may have payed off.

Re: Well Big Joe is gone

Last year everyone was shocked when Nic clemons got cut & Montgomery & Golston made the team.
I hate to see JOe go, but I thought back in march it was a matter of time for him to get cut this season. Hopefully it means that we have potential w/Alexander et al.

I hope this means we actually have some young talent coming up. I liked Sal but everyone has to go some time.

I'm getting the mild impression a youth movement could be taking root.

Sucks man. Joe is one of my favorite players. But I guess its time for the young guys to step up.

This wasn't a surprise to me I take it Montgomery is adequate as a backup.
