Texans cut Jeoffrey Pagan, drat that's a surprising one. He was on the short list to take over at starting DE opposite JJ, but I guess he just can't stay healthy

That's an A+ pass rusher name too. I would have loved to watch him sack Ponder.

Not worried about the name tool, the Texans still have the top pass rusher name in Whitney Mercilus

i'm not sure how tom cable has remained as long as he has. the sheer arrogance that he could convert a 6th round d-lineman into a passable o-linemen - having never cobbled together a noteworthy o-line - defies imagination.

TBD Chargers

James Jones, WR -- He looked good in preseason games, but I guess that he didn't understand the playbook?
Zack Mettenberger, QB -- Confirmed terrible
Zamir Collins, DL -- injury waiver
Tyler Johnstone, OT -- injury waiver
Dreamius Smith, RB -- injury waiver
Javontee Herndon, WR -- injury waiver. All four of these guys look to be going onto IR.
Torrence Allen, WR -- there's only room for one receiver named Allen
Greg Ducre, CB -- bad
Mike Lee, CB -- camp body
Bruce Johnson, C -- camp body
Bruce Gaston, DL -- bad
Zack Hodges, OLB -- don't know
Donovan Clark, G -- IR
Branden Oliver, RB -- IR, rest in peace sweet prince :sigh:

Apparently the Chargers get to keep 76 players for now thanks to just signing Bosa. They got some kind of special snowflake exemption for that, but they still have to cut down to 53+PS by next week.

He just converted JR Sweezy, a 7th round d-lineman, into an offensive guard that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers just signed for 32 million over 5 years. :shepicide:

Constantly undermined by his own team, I thought. It's always a shame because I wonder what a good coach like Harbaugh or Hue might be able to coax out of guys like him and Glennon.

FizFashizzle posted:

I agree.

I don't think Cable is actually that bad of a line coach. Someone here hypothesized a while back that he said the stupid poo poo about converting linemen because he's just going along with Carroll and Schneider. I'm not sure I totally buy that, but I am excited to see him working with actual offensive linemen with potential this year. If he can't show improvement with a #1 pick on the line then we should totally can his rear end.

Giants cuts:
CB Bennett Jackson; S Cooper Taylor; OL Shane McDermott; WR K.J. Maye; WR Kadron Boone; DE Mike Rose; CB Joe Powell; RB Marshaun Coprich; DT Greg Milhouse; DT Davon Coleman

Nothing too surprising. Cooper Taylor was sometimes pretty good but he's only played 16 games since he was drafted in 2013 because he was injured constantly, and he was actually waived last year before being picked up again later as an injury fill in. Everybody else on this list either sucks and/or is hurt, but local media is going crazy over Bennet Jackson getting cut because he's ~A New Jersey Boy~

He was basically the prime example of overlording Patriots-style sociopath fascism aside from being a poo poo GM.

Pioli was a pretty good drafter in KC, even if he wasn't a good GM. Could be fine in a limited role, which I assume he has in Atlanta.

Edit: I think I had the year he came in wrong, meaning he wasn't a good drafter. Disregard.
