Final Cuts From Around the NFL

Interesting move by the Rams... cutting Danny Avery. That guy torched us a couple of years ago, but got sent to IR last year.

Lito Sheppard is available.

Bucket · 09-03-2011, 11:41 PM

Why would we ever go back to the 4-3? LOL..

Lito is falling apart. He will never be anything put a 4th CB now. M-Weather in 2 years will be better then OJ, and if OJ can never see the field, why would it matter?

Ed Gant the TB WR who had a great game against the skins, got cut. He will be picked by someone, We definitely don't need him.

Bucket · 09-04-2011, 12:46 AM

Just because a WR has a great game against the 31st defense doesn't mean we should go pick up every one of them on the market lol.

Don't think we will bring in Brandon Merriwether we will have to give LaRon a new contract and we would have to much money tied up into 3 safeties. I do think we could take a look at Igor Olshankey from the Comboys if the price is right.

This could happen, but I feel like they're happy with their DE's. Someone mentioned Kentwan Balmer, but honestly what has he done in the league? He's been on 3 different teams in the past year and a half.

That'd be interesting if we ended up with Igor, Bowen, and Cofield. Talking about a lot of trash talking during NFC East games.

So true , as long as we are kicking ass . As far as merriweather , he actually bragged during last year ( radio shows ) that he did his own thing , no way I bring him here .

12thMan · 09-04-2011, 08:21 AM

For the most the roster is set. I could see maybe 2 or 3 pieces changing.

12thMan · 09-04-2011, 08:35 AM

So I follow a fair number of Skins on Twitter and of the ones that made yesterday's roster, that I follow, Stallworth was the only one that has said absolutely nothing (bad grammar) about making the team. Not trying to read too much into his silence, but I wonder if him and his agent are laying low for a few more days until the dust clears.

NFL.com news: Bears agree to one-year deal with ex-Pats safety Meriweather

Everette Brown cut by Panthers. Too small for 4-3 DE. I always thought that he was playing out of position. Could be a fine pass rusher at OLB for a 3-4 team. He has excellent speed, as I recall.

Tyrone MacKenzie cut by Tampa Bay. I like him at ILB.

Igor Olshansky would be a nice pickup, IMO. The choice is between a player who is a run stopper and not a pass rusher or one of two players who are neither (Golston and Scott). All three of them are about the same age, so that's not a factor. I think our DL rotation was hurt badly when we lost JJ for the season.

Can anybody think of a guard we could possibly pick up? We're hurting at that position too, IMO.

As I've said before, I think losing JJ was a blow but not as bad as people are making it out to be. For one, he was an unknown so it's really hard to say "how much of a blow" it really is. If there's any upside to his injury at all, we lost him early on. It's not like we lost him in the fifth game of the season and now the defense really has to make major adjustments.

In terms of rotation and depth, I think we'll be just fine. If Carriker can find his groove this year, the defensive line will be pretty good.
