Roster Cuts

The cut list should have included
1.Ade Jimoh
2.Taylor Jacobs
3.Cory Raymer
4.Zak Keasey
5.Rock Cartwright
6.Tom Tupa

did you miss the preseason? rock had more yards, more ypc, more receiving yards than broughton, and he was subbing in and out of the 1st and 2nd string offense while doing it. Tupa is on IR, there's ABSOLUTELY no reason to dump him, he doesn't count against us in any way. GW likes keasey and he's made more plays and less penalties than mccune.

I wouldn't mind seeing raymer go after last year though, and i don't know how ade stays on the team, but he's figured out how to stay on the roster this long, so i'm just going to learn to live with it.

I understand the taylor gripes, but he's talented and had some bad luck. WRs cant play through ruptured kidneys and broken toes, and i would like to see him healthy for at least a few games before writing him off. WR is one of the positions were it can take 3 years to see what you've got (jimmy smith, etc) and i'd hate to have spent a 2nd round pick to give someone else a free #2 receiver.
