Falcon Cut Tracker Thread

[Embrace the suck 7,613]

The Falcons have until 4:00 p.m. ET tomorrow to trim their roster down from 90 to 53 players in preparation for the regular season.

This one slipped under the radar during the middle of last night’s preseason win over the Jaguars, but general manager Thomas Dimitroff says the team will probably cut 27 players today, per Vaughn McClure at ESPN.

 

Dimitroff said probably 27 cuts tomorrow then the rest on Saturday.

That will leave 10 more to come on Saturday.

Dimitroff, Dan Quinn and the rest of the front office have some difficult decisions to make. Their depth at receiver in particular presents challenges, as several talented players are no doubt going to get left behind.

#7 White Vick is gone for sure.

Only because we won’t keep 3 quarterbacks and I don’t believe he’s able to be stashed on the practice squad.  

Etling played great last night.

We keep white vick on the PS squad. He is actually very talented and could be better once he learns the playbook.

I agree, as long as no one else picks him up.  He has to be waived first, then we can try to sign him to PS.  Remember, Atlanta had to submit a waiver claim to get Etling when Pats cut him, so they may think there are others out there that have interest.

Not Etling. The WR wearing #7 that got the ball stripped last night. Dude has not looked good all preseason.

Etling will probably stay on the PS.

#7 isnt etling......

[Dr Long Shot 1,956]

I feel like we actually have some depth this year. Good job by the front office this past offseason it's like night and day compared to last year where I don't recall anyone really being "worried" about who was gonna get cut before the start of the year.

Yea I realized that a little bit after I posted.  

Gotta give him a different nickname.  You say White Vick and instantly you think white QB with some wheels aka etling

TD, king of the premature cut. 

Wonder who he will call back later after making a mistake

That's too much work. Gotta scroll up and just...nah...

[dmo_dlo 2,287]

Difficult decisions are:

- TBJ, Barner, Hill, Ollison for 2 spots

- Zimmer, Larkin, Bethune, Miles for 1 spot

- Blidi, Staley, Neal for 1 spot

- Hardy, Blake, Gray, Zach, for 2 spots

What’s the context of this?

cutting the guys you don’t expect to keep earlier is to their advantage no?

Imagine still being butthurt when it ended up working out in the end...

It was so nice when this clown took a month off.  That needs to happen again.

[FalconsManhood2 86]

Ryan Neal should have been cut last year 

[FalconsManhood2 86]

Jordan Miller also looked terrible, could end up on the practice squad

Poster just has to be consistent and make a baseless, off the wall negative comment. Nothing new or of value as usual.

Crazy how fast the NFL moves.  Just 2 years ago this dude was considered one of the best returners in the game...
