#bman Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 A QB, probably Flynn will be signed after week 1. They cut him so they wont have to pay him $875,000. They can roll the Dice with Fitzy/Petty for week 1 and then bring back Flynn until Geno is ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet Nut Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Flynn didn't have deal guaranteed because he already took the vested vet option already and you only get to do it once wasn't talking about Flynn. They worked out a kid GB cut Thursday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Harris Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I don't understand only keeping 5 wideouts while keeping 10 offensive lineman. You could literally have 5 wideouts on the field at the same time. What if 2 guys get hurt in a single game. Meanwhile Qvale and Dozier somehow made the squad and we don't have a punt returner. In Mac I trust but this is weird.

Wide Receiver (5) Brandon Marshall Eric Decker Jeremy Kerley Devin Smith Quincy Enunwa yes it is weird, and especially writ since Devin Smith is hurt for the first few games. There must be a WR signing coming down in the next few hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohio State NY Jets fan Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Considering T.Pryor made the Browns 53 as a WR, I am not sure there is much out there in FA that will be that much of an upgrade, Duran Carter maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCarl40 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I really wouldn't be concerned about the 53 man roster until Next Sunday. A lot can happen on the in between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkprime Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Can Powell and Osuwa be signed to the practice squad? Same for Mays? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jets1958 Posted September 6, 2015 Author Share Posted September 6, 2015 I really wouldn't be concerned about the 53 man roster until Next Sunday. A lot can happen on the in between. I agree. But with 4 healthy WR till the bye week, I expect an addition to WR soon. Why else cut Powell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTL Jet Fan Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I don't understand why they only kept 5 WR's, I was hoping either Powell or Owusu. Hopefully they have a plan at WR which for me has been a bright spot on the roster this year when it came to depth. I don't want to end up like we have the last few years.

Could be nothing more than they felt it was safer to cut those guys than others. One of them could be brought back after moves today, or they could have their eye on someone else's cuts. Teams around the league did stranger things. I know the Browns are down to six OL this morning, and another team only had three CBs. So both of those teams have to be stocked elsewhere, to be so short at those positions. When you think about it, today is the day that teams let go some better players - players they maybe hoped to trade or sneak on their own practice squads. Looking forward to seeing what Maccagnan does this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

56mehl56 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 QB tells me they think enough of Petty that if he had to play he would not lose games. That and the fact Geno might be healing faster then expected. WR I don't understand why Powell. Thought he was playing well. I would like to know who stayed On team instead of Powell. My guess is a FA vet is brought in after week 1 to negate the contract guarantees. Petty holds he clipboard for 1 week. Surprised with Owusu and Powell . As others said Kerley as primary PR is disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
