Integrity28 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I thought it would be good to have a central thread for all of our final cuts, as they happen. Meaning, save the "I think Geno should be cut" arguing for other threads, please. Use this for reporting cuts and thoughts about them specifically. If you guys can do this, then I'll buy you all cupcakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Good bye Tompkins I would like to say good bye Giacomini but our oiine is the biggest problem with this team right now and will be our downfall in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mecca Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I would cut Thompkins, Giocamini, Reily, and Bohanon. Bohanon is one of the worst FB's in the NFL and is slow as dirt. Thompkins might be the 6th best receiver on the team with 0 ST ability and is the 3rd highest paid. Gio is hurt anyway. Cut Giocamini and bring him back when he's healthy IF Qvuale struggles.

Rangers9 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Bohanon doesn't seem to have a role. And Thompkins could go, I'd rather see Anderson myself. You don't cut Geno that's crazy esp after what happened yesterday. Petty injured and Hack not ready . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycdan Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Keep in mind you don't really save as much as it looks like since you have to replace them with other guys. Bohannon and Reilly, for example, wouldn't really save much of anything even if you brought in a minimum salary guy to replace them. Definitely agree about Thompkins and Bohannon at the very least though. Even if Bohannon doesn't save cap, he's taking up a roster spot and not really contributing anything.

I'd assume Reilly is too, but the Jenkins injury might complicate things there. If they had any brains they'd dump Giacomini and Thompkins and just play the kids instead, but like every Jets regime, this one seems to prefer expensive sh*tty players over cheap sh*tty players whenever possible.

Big Blocker Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I thought Tompkins was going to make the roster when camp started, but at this point he could be a cap casualty, and in any event the young receivers are playing well enough with him not taking the field, so him getting cut looks like a decent bet at this point. On Breno I wish Qvale showed better in these games. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Current cap only counts top 51 plays, final roster will be 53. NFL minimum for rookies is $450K, first year $525K, second year $600K. Not a lot of places to find real savings on this roster. If they like a kicker better than Folk, that's $2.75M. If they think they can get by without Winters, that's another $1.6M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jets Daily Dosage. Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Thompkins is a goner. He would have had a real chance to stick because we know Bowles loves his veterans. But he's been hurt on and off all preseason, and the younger recievers have taken advantage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just gonna say, they should just rip some Band-Aids clean off today. Run a Parcells-style fatwa on the prior GM's errors. Cut Amaro, McDougle, Milliner, Giacomini.

FTL Jet Fan Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I would be surprised if they cut Geno given Petty's injury, granted x-rays were negative but I doubt he will be ready to go as the #2 opening day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breno is simply not worth the money he makes, and if Qvale showed a pulse, you play him.

I agree with slats; Jace Amaro needs to go, he's a 1-dimensional player who is lousy at the 1 dimension that he's supposed to at least be good at. Since he can't block and he has a habit of dropping balls, especially when he's wide open, well I'd much rather have Quincy Enunwa in his place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
