Official Cuts from Around the NFL Thread

I would want Cooley to go to.NE or Denver. All the shit he put up with while in Washington and Snyder/Cerrato era. He deserves a ring.

I'm fine with any team but the NFC EAST, Steelers and Patriots

Its been a while since I have posted on warpath so Im ready for some football. I like the WR Corp we kept on the 53 man roster. I believe we had to keep Desmond Briscoe because all he does he makes TD's and has nice size. AA has speed but is hurt to often and Austin just did not flash like Robinson has this preseason. As for Banks he is a wild card factor in the offense and a nice return man who can go the distance at any given time. Kudos to the coaching staff on putting together this roster. We do however need our O-line to remain healthy and the #2's most be ready to step up when called upon. I like the way OG Hurt has played in the preseason for Kory L. The RB's are nice complentary to one another. They all have a different style which will make it harder for the defense to game plan for us. I think Royster will start with Roy coming in on 3rd downs. Morris maybe our short yardage back. I hope fullback Young can stay healthy he is a great lead blocker and receiver out of the backfield. Defense looks fast and hungry. HTTR

Why? Who can blame any NFL player trying to get paid more when teams are so avid to use them up and throw them on the trash heap, even if they're fan favorites?

The teams don't have to abide by their own contracts except for guaranteed money... Why should players be bothered to?

I think the next CBA players should hold out to break non-guaranteed contracts. Might not be best for the game (because it would lower competition for roster spots and that would be a shame), and it definitely wouldn't be best for owners who can basically discard any player the moment they've used them up, but it would be the right thing for the players.

I don't have a problem with him holding out. But he should face the consequences of doing so.

The teams have to abide by the contract language that was negotiated into the CBA....and they do. Each contract contains language that the team can cancel the contract at any time, particularly for the team having another player that performs better. The fines levied on MJD were also something negotiated into the CBA. They're to prevent players who sign contracts with large up-front bonuses from holding out.

Might not be best for the game (because it would lower competition for roster spots and that would be a shame), and it definitely wouldn't be best for owners who can basically discard any player the moment they've used them up, but it would be the right thing for the players.

Good luck with that.....9 years from now.

Said on the radio that the team was waiving the fines. My question is does that against their cap?

Fines do not count against the cap.

Fines might not count, but the team waving fines incurred for violating cba rules should be paid and if a team waives them then that seems like it should count towards their cap, just as any other bonus would.

edit: fixed wrong quote

What in the hell? Quoting posts from 8 years ago! Crazy

Irony about these fines is that they all go to charities (most of which go to NFL Retired Players funds)...so the money is going to future MJD

[artmonkforhallofamein07]

Yeah CRed, what is the deal and I don't really see how that old post is relevant to the fines of MJD. ~
