Rangers9 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 They said they couldn’t find a role for him even on special teams. The thing is with his talent can another team find a role for him even as a 3rd down pass rusher. He might just not be a 4 down type of a player. They also said the only time he looked decent at all was against 3rd stringers. It looked on Thursday like they intentionally didn’t play him much. Either because they knew they were going to cut him already and wanted to see other guys. Or they were trying to hide him so after he’s cut nobody signs him and they can PS him and see what he had and if he develops. It’ll be interesting to see if anyone picks him up for their active roster. Of course he has choice of any team’s practice squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know the whole roster and front office is like DAMN they just our 3rd rd pick from 4 months ago. I better step by game up! I don't see it as a power move. It was just the right move. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freestater Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Macc's singular contribution to this team was to bumble into Sam Darnold. I owe @T0mShane an apology. Idzik may have been not as bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetster Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Omg, I was just thinking, where would we be if the in the 2018 draft we heard these words....With the 2nd pick in the 2018 draft, the New York football Giants select Sam Darnold, QB, USC, lol. We'd still have Bowles & Macc, lol. No one with a brain would want anything to do with this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a great scheme fit either as we're likely to see mostly 4 3. In short... who cares. So Grocery baggers outperformed Polite therefore we should celebrate the acquisition of grocery baggers?

Anyone who values 3rd round draft picks? They're keeping the guys who perform the best regardless of draft status. That was something Bowles and Macc struggled with so I can dig it. I know people like playing the "look who we could have drafted" game but that's childish. Every team whiffs in every round. The Vikings trading a 5th rounder for a K who they just waived a couple weeks later is a bigger disaster than this... If he's not claimed he'll probably be on the practice squad and hopefully takes this year to get right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Rasmussen Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Maccagnan made enough money to afford Lavazza. Instead he drank Dunkins flavored water.Probably also shopped at Dollar General looking for value.

I just don't think we're going to put him on our PS though. It sounds like he's an abject failure as a football player.
