I saw a few Kickers cut so far. The only name I recognize is Riley Patterson.
There's already a couple out there that may pique Gute's interest.

So judging by the "made the roster" tweets, it sounds like we may have some upcoming surprises. Can't keep them all and, by many accounts, most of us didn't have Heath, Telfort, or Glover on their predicted rosters.

So who is gonna be the surprise cuts?
Herman with a useful little breakdown of the remaining... and also comments below that 11 of these guys (instead of 9) might stick due to potential use of 2 IR-designated-to-return slots




So 5 of these guys go, 2 go to IR?

I don't have anything to base this on, but a recent discussion of a player's love for the game... and continued love for the game come into question here, for me. I almost wonder if he is as relieved as we all are.

The Michael Pratt thing not even being invited on our practice squad is wild to me. To me he was clearly the better talent and performer. What am I missing with him? I loved the pick. Thought he backed it up in practice and looked good in the games. The only real knock was one bonehead interception.

I agree.

Though everyone knows that you can't make a bad play in the red zone in the final preseason game! Ask Anders!

Had they kept Welch (and if they keep Mosby), it would be pretty fun to think about how Pratt and Carlson doomed themselves with unacceptable errors in that game while King, Welch, Mosby, and Heath earned their roster spots by balling out.

You didn’t miss anything. He was the correct backup QB. Just an atrocious decision to cut him and then trade for an even worse QB.
Cancelled by the forum elites.

No idea, but tweet history doesn't look like that of a troll.

It sure seems like they sacrificed a lot of ST talent to keep some OL/DL project guys.

Also thought surely one of Rochell or King would make it. Hate that decision.

Edit: nevermind. I read Zayne Anderson as released and didn't see Wilson included with the Lloyd write-up.

Zayne Anderson on the roster over King and Rochel (and Welch) will infuriate me irrationally until the end of days.

There's no STs guy on our team good enough to keep over ALSO GOOD ST GUYS who can play D


Sad but not surprised about Dillon. Neck stuff is tough. I wonder if they'll reach an injury settlement since he's on a 1-year deal anyway. Maybe him retiring and staying in GB is best for him anyway.

AJJ was sorta my sneaky possible surprise cut; not that he doesn't deserve it but that the numbers just don't add up given the draft investment AND two rookie looking ready to start ahead of him from day one. Put him on the bubble.


I'm just gonna rage about Zayne though. That guy doesn't deserve his spot. Hope he gets cut tomorrow when we pick someone up.
