All the offseason moves in the NFL thus far

[top dawg]

For those that are interested, NFLtraderumors.com has put together a list of all the offseason moves to date. It's a dry list, but it could be interesting depending on one's perspective in that it may offer up some insight into each FO's thinking. Quite frankly, it's kind if like reading tea leaves in a way. Some GM's want to win big now (Giants), while others have made ome seemingly great foundational moves for the future (Raiders). 

Like I alluded to in another thread, to me it's about holding together your core and developing your own to the point where they provide adequate depth and/or become part of that core group in the future. The draft and mining for gold among the UDFAs is central to that end as well. Moreover panning for nuggets among cuts and practice squads (the competition's and your own) can yield very good results. Of course you can get lucky in FA by adding a potential young stud (come on, Coples), but I see the main goal as shopping for value-priced stopgaps of varying degrees. 

Anyway, I am rambling a bit. For those that are interested, take a gander and contemplate all of the dynamics.

Only guess is that they were cut really early in the process (and probably before it's initial compilation).

They weren't cut. Their contracts auto voided.
