Predict this year's surprise cut

wilsowilso · 07-25-2009, 02:16 PM

In year's past there have been some unexpected moves, but this year it seems like maybe releasing Jansen was the big surprise.

Who could be the most recognizable name that would be an unexpected camp casualty this year?

Fred Smoot

I think I'm going with Todd Collins. I doubt it will happen, but if Colt Brennan has a huge camp and preseason and somehow secures the #2 role there is no way Todd makes the team.

I'm not saying I'm for it, but with our DE situation, I won't be totally surprised if Jackson gets cut.

JoeRedskin · 07-25-2009, 03:15 PM

Rock Cartwright or in the alternative Fred Smoot.

I'm gonna go with Malcolm Kelley. It would be a surprise, but if he can't get on the field during preseason to show that he can help out on ST he might have no position.

my pessimistic side was just thinking Malcolm Kelly going on IR. I don't think he's gonna get as much slack as last year if his knee starts acting up during training camp, he may be the odd man out.

My optimistic side says that his knee will hold up and he and DT will make an outstanding rotation depending on the on field situation.

I don't know. We have so much nice talent all over......

RB: could be Rock or Betts if Zorn is looking for a change of pace back.
CB: could be Smoot due to age and having slowed down.
DE: could be Wynn, Buzbee, etc.
QB: the only thing I see TC bringing to the team is being a Vet. Knowing tricks of the trade and reading defenses.
RG: could Randy Thomas get beat out? his neck injury sounded scary.
C: I would like someone bigger and harder to bowl over.

Rock Cartwright. In part because the new kickoff rules will probably make him less effective and it also seems the team really is looking for a poor mans Warrick Dunn (ie a speed back). Chris Wilson will also probably get cut, and Collins will get cut if Colt beats him out for the number 2 spot.

I think Betts is safe because it'll look real bad to cut him after he signed a contract for much less then he would have gotten otherwise so I think the team is intent on letting him play out his contract.

I wondered about Kelly also but when he came out of college he already had the injury and was nursing it. The team tried everything to get him on the field even though he had it. They finally decided to go the surgery route. Due to doctors not competely cleaning it out he still had soreness. Since his surgery in Jan or Feb. I think he is finally able to play and not feel pain. He supposedly looked good in the OTA's. I'm betting both MK and DT come out with something to prove. or I guess I hope so. LOL. But he easily could be let go if he continues to have issues with his knees.

I hope for funs sake they explore everything like having an all speed play....

Moss, DT, Eloi as WR's
Alridge and Dorsey as RB's

Just to see what it would allow. maybe replace Alridge or Dorsey with Portis or Betts in the back field to block and make teams scramble to cover the speedier WR's and send the scat back out for a pass after having play actioned to portis up the middle.

I like Rock but nonetheless I have to say Rock.

Todd Yoder........This cut will make room on the roster for an adittional running back
In the NFC East youve gotta have 2-3 good backs
