NFL Eliminates 75-Man Roster Cuts

That cut day would be brutal, plus it hurts the fringe bubble guys.. So this time they get cut ,they wouldnt have a chance during the current season to make a roster. Well as stated earlier before, if you cant make the 75, its very slim to make the 53 on another team.

I'm curious to why people don't like the inactive list?  Also why do people think there is an inactive list?

It makes a lot of sense actually. Without it a team with several injuries is facing a major uphill battle in terms of depth when facing a healthy team.

The only downside I see to this new rule is some teams would release a guy in time for another team to sign him for the final preseason game.  Especially those that have been around for a couple years.

Overall I like the new rule.  Game 4 of the preseason should be for those that want to make the team and gives coaches one last look at those players ranked 50-90

The major difference with this is a lot of guys that today are "first cut down"-guys now will be "I was just the final cut away"-guys and ending up pursuing a football career long after it was already over.

I thought the inactive list was to balance out teams in case one team has a bunch of injuries and the other doesnt? That would keep one team from having 53 players to choose from while the other has fewer healthy players

Exactly

That is why I didn't understand the people that were against it.
