RedRamage Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 43 minutes ago, Mr.TaterSalad said: Then why even bring him back and why not draft one? They had to know he can't kick a 50 yarder from when he was here before. Given also that you had Badgley, who was accurate enough in close put didn't have great range... I mean it seems to odd that Badgley was dropped in favors of pretty much the same skill set that you have to use assets to acquire... and now it seems Riley isn't good enough? As much as Holmes has done a fantastic job in nearly all areas of building this year, kicker is an area he's whiffed on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how that's even a question. Levi? He was actually very good in preseason so if that has any merit, there's an argument for him to get starting reps. It's not like the competition at DT is high level. It's likely that he'll just start as a rotational player along with the other two and Benito Jones I guess? Martin doesn't look NFL ready to me, he got swallowed up my guards from what I saw of him in preseason.

MichiganCardinal Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Patriots waived Malik Cunningham. That could be an interesting addition, as he could be your QB3 as well as a WR, depending on what you want/need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichiganCardinal Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 The 21 offensive players to 29 defensive players split doesn’t seem sustainable. I think they saw more defensive players who may be good trade candidates (i.e., the Okwaras). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.TaterSalad Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 I will say one surprising name that I never expected to make the team was former 3rd round bust Ifeatu Melifonwu. I was certain Ife would not make the cut. Also very surprised they are only carrying two RBs on this team. You'd have to think they are going to pick someone else up as it would be awful risky to knit carry two backs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motor City Sonics Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 This is not the final 53, No way they go into the season with only 2 RBs. They are looking to get someone else's cut. Same thing with New England. No way they go into the season with only ONE QB. I'm thinking Colt McCoy is probably headed there. A team would be smart to take on Bailey Zappe. Interesting what the Cardinals are doing at QB. Joshua Dobbs? Really? Wouldn't be shocked if the Lions also picked up another WR. Surprised they cut Cota and Drummond.

You'd have to think they are going to pick someone else up as it would be awful risky to knit carry two backs. They'll make a couple more moves: as 4hzglory noted, probably a couple guys to IR. Any interesting RB's to pick up? The Giants released James Robinson... if he's healthy he was once-upon-a-time a very interesting RB... And they'll re-sign Craig Reynolds. And they'll find another RB to add to the Practice Squad. 4 hours ago, Motor City Sonics said: ... Surprised they cut Cota and Drummond. Practice Squad. Plus Chase Lucas and Starling Thomas (if all these guys pass waivers that is...), probably Brandon Joseph, Max Pircher and a couple other O-Lineman, Adrian Martinez, and... ? Just a WAG.

RandyMarsh Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Zonovan Knight who the Jets just cut could be a possibility as a 3rd rb Had a couple strong games for them last year when he got the bulk of the carries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
