JoeKlecko Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Too bad Freeman got injured. I think he would have made the team otherwise. I expect Dallas or some other team in need of a center will sign him and he will develop into a quality player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jack48 Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 This is not final cut time. You have 75 guys on the roster. I don't understand this. You cannot cut some clown who you are sure won't make it for a promising O lineman? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleedin Green Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 This is not final cut time. You have 75 guys on the roster. I don't understand this. You cannot cut some clown who you are sure won't make it for a promising O lineman? They needed another QB capable of playing tonight as with Geno sitting and McElroy re-injured, Simms was all they had. To make space, they cut a guy who they already knew (1) was not going to be able to play tonight and (2) wasn't making the final roster. Even if they are considering tossing him back onto the PS (which, if they are, I'm sure they told him so at the time he was cut), cutting him now instead of Saturday doesn't really change their ability to do so. I can't imagine three days is going to make the difference in another team's potential interest in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
