Who will the skins cut to make for Pakulak?

SFREDSKIN · 10-09-2009, 07:05 PM

The skins have to cut a player from the 53 man roster to make room for Pakulak the new punter. Who do you think it will be? I'm guessing Alridge or Mason, but hope is Betts.

I don't think Betts can be cut that easily. I'm no Schneed but he has signed a long term contract within the last two years meaning that we could go over the salary cap due to the prorated acceleration of his signing bonus upon his release.

I don't think he is an option. I doubt we can cut him during this season.

Then how about Smoot?

It depends on his contract status. I don't remember off the top of my head how much or how long he signed for.

As long as they weren't signed for big cash/signing bonus within the last three years then they would be cutable...Mason and Alderidge are the most likely candidates.

check here for some clues, it's not going to be someone like Betts or Smoot

Who the hell knows, but in semi related news. We are still in search of another RB, former Terp gets a look.

Former Terp Lattimore Gets a Look

In their ongoing quest to have every unsigned running back on their 53-man roster, the Redskins on Friday worked out former Maryland running back Keon Lattimore, Ray Lewis's brother, but do not plan to sign him because they have no roster room, a league source said.

Earlier this week, the Redskins worked out former Tennessee Titans running back Chris Henry, who played under offensive coordinator Sherman Smith when Smith with the Titans' running backs coach. The Houston Texans are expected to sign Henry.

Lattimore, who received an injury settlement from Dallas, came in for a tryout while the Redskins were trying to determine whether injured punter Hunter Smith would be able to play Sunday against the Carolina Panthers at Bank of America Stadium. Smith was injured on his first punt in the 16-13 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Smith's groin injury has not improved enough to have him active for the game, Coach Jim Zorn said after practice at Redskins Park, so the team plans to sign punter Glenn Pakulak from the practice squad. The Redskins have to cut a player to make room for Pakulak.

Having to add Pakulak, who also will hold for place kicker Shaun Suisham, ended any chance of adding a running back this week. But with Clinton Portis, Ladell Betts, Marcus Mason, Anthony Alridge and Rock Cartwright at the position, perhaps the Redskins will find a way to muddle through against the Panthers.

All kidding aside, the Redskins obviously have serious concerns about their ability to be effective in the running game this season. They're still searching for a spark at the position, and it seems clear major changes are coming at running back for this team next season.
