Re: Two Guys, One Cut

Great post!

Chase Daniel or Colt Brennan
I’m really torn here because, chances are, whichever of these guys we cut is going to promptly end up on the practice squad… and immediately signed by another team. Colt Brennan has too much “hype” to last and Daniel has performed too well to go unnoticed. Daniel’s performance last week was amazing, but so was Colt’s last year. However, in the end, I’d cut Colt. Everything I read about Colt make me feel like he’s cocky and thinks too much of himself. Now, having “moxy” is good, but a guy fighting for a 3rd QB spot shouldn’t be overconfident. Chase Daniel has worked hard his entire career to overcome his height. I’ll take a hard worker over a cocky kid any day of the week. Add to that, the fact that Chase is FOUR YEARS younger than Colt and the decision becomes a no-brainer. At this point, I’d rather lose Colt than Chase.

Shaun Suisham or Dave Rayner
“Better the devil you know, cut Rayner” – I agree with Smoot here.

Marcus Mason or Domonique Dorsey (I'll add Rock Cartwright here)
I think we have to find a way to keep Dorsey, but I would try not to do it at Rock’s expense. If it came down to it, though, I’d do it. Our starting RB is almost 28 and entering his 8th year and both our current backups (Rock and Betts) will be 30 during the season. We need to get some youth and explosion at the position. Dorsey’s contribution to the return game alone makes him worthy of a roster spot. We would definitely take a hit on special teams, with the loss of Thrash and Rock the same year, but it would be worth it.

Devin Clark or Mike Williams
I’d cut Clark. Williams has too much potential. He’s not where we need him to be yet, but we’ve got to take the gamble our starting Ts staying healthy until atleast week 5. Williams should be ready by then.

Cody Glenn or Robert Thomas
Glenn has impressed me so far. Thomas… has he even gotten on the field? No-brainer here. Bye bye Thomas

Renaldo Wynn or Alex Buzbee (I'll add Rob Jackson here)
I honestly don’t think any of these guys makes the roster. Also, remember, Lorenzo Alexander is a DE now. Given that Orakpo will be playing DE about 30% of the time, I think we only go with 9 DL this year: Carter (DE), Griffin (DT), Haynesworth (DT), Daniels (DT/DE), Golston (DT), Montgommery (DT), Alexander (DT/DE), Jarmon (DT), and… drumroll…. Skolnitsky(DT/DE). Atleast, that’s what I’d do. There’s no doubt in my mind Blache will keep Wynn. Jackson and Skolnitsky will go to the PS and If we’re lucky, one of them will stick - but I doubt it.

Justin Tryon or Bryon Westbrook
Tryon. Don’t think an explanation is necessary.
