Keim made the point that Murphy is better at ST's and could be active whereas if they kept Minnifield he would be one if the inactive every week. Good insight and information.

[quote=warriorzpath;1021713]Didnt know that but still not going to concede anything to you. There was still a good chance if the seahawks trading him before releasing him. So there you go. Ha![/quote]

It was reported by NFL.com that he was cut early today, around noon or even earlier. Some reports had him being cut at 8 or 9 am. They wouldnt announce they are cutting him this morning if they thought they could trade him near the deadline.

From what I read, he got a 500k signing bonus, and has another 500k guaranteed unless he plays somewhere else. I personally think he knew he wouldnt be able to sign for anything other than the vet minimum and figured the 500k for not playing was better than only getting an additional 300-400k above that if he does play.

Don't be lost Beck is our ace in the hole. If Griffin and Cousins go down Grossman and PW are smokescreens, Beck is the real hero.

From a business standpoint, getting that much for nothing might make sense. But from a competitor's standpoint, I can't see that happening. Winfield all of a sudden felt like he can't play anymore? Unless he's hurt I don't believe it until he officially retires.

Keep in mind, he is 36. Im sure he realizes that there are no more big contracts in his future if he keeps playing and no guarantees of a ring.

City of Compton and gettis I believe. My question is wtf? Pass the blunt

Re: Redskins Cuts
 

My thoughs exactly Rave, who are the two dudes in the back.. Practice squad guys or random friends?

On Pat White and Rex G. If Cousins and III are 100% healthy after four games I would take a long look at getting rid of both to bring back the d players.

I still want an explanation as to why we are keeping white. I have heard the rumors about trying to trade him, but I don't see that as a possibility given what he showed during preseason. One reason I can see is the RO portion of our play book vein exposed to the league, but honestly how much of what we run in the preseason will actually make it to our regular season game plan.

Re: Redskins Cuts
 

anyone wanting to keep lewis or williams over grossman is either crazy, or dating/related to lewis and/or williams.

i think chase, williams, and jamison should make the PS. we'll need OL, LB, and maybe a safety there, but k williams is the only guy we cut that i'm pretty sure will be in the league this year.

Funny, I recall people telling me I must have been watching the games from another planet. Then....."No way PW. Is making this roster."

Now the only reason we have him is for trade bait......but he's not worth anything.

K.Shanahan has some bond with Rex. They should just make him a coach and down the road Kyle can be named HC and Rex QB Coach.

ANYONE who still has a drop of interest in Grossman is either a delusional schizophrenic or their a homo.

As far as Lewis..... I thought he played as good as Aldrich Robinson. Plus Lewis is bigger and taller. Just look at the last game. It was Lewis who ran down the guy who almost had a kick returned for a TD.
