Surprise veteran cut?

not a surprise, but munnerlyn is on thin ice.

Not really. He’s been running as our starting nickel all camp so far and has a contract that we can’t really get out of at all this year.

I would have said Munnerlyn but I think with the Cockrell injury his chances of making the team went up big time, since he has experience both as a veteran and in the system, as well as having played on the outside and in the nickel.

I could see Kyle Love being cut if there is another DT either at camp or cut with upside.

If the Manhertz injury lingers, I could see us reaching an injury settlement with him and keeping Olsen, Ian Thomas, and Armah as the 3rd TE/FB.  I think that is contingent on believing there is a 4th RB worthy to keep for ST purposes behind CMC, CJ Anderson, and CAP.

I really don't see any big surprises.  The biggest one to me will be if we really are comfortable rolling with GG as the backup QB.  That to me will be the biggest unknown come cut time.  And the off-chance there is a veteran DB or Oline the coaching staff thinks will be an upgrade.

    • Okay, that day in Vegas had to embarrass him completely. Andy showed him how to do the job.  What I think when I go there, why did it take Andy? He has had game after game of watching actual NFL QBs work and that didn't do it?  Anyhow Andy did not mess around, he stood in there and did his job and got rid of the ball ahead of the pressure. Down the field. With the same players Bryce had. Night and day.  If that didn't wake him up nothing ever would. But I don't think he has any sort of top NFL QB in him, he just lacks the full tool kit. 
    • Team is dangerous right now, all four lines are contributing and the speed at which the guys play at is tremendous.
    • And every nfl player wannabe tries to up their draft position through things like the combine and theyre all basically lying though those drills theyve practiced hundreds of times that have little bearing on if theyre a good football player. The pro days are even worse. All you have to do is dupe 1 team. Is it right? No. But until teams put more emphasis on college tape vs. What they did in shorts with no defense it'll happen every year. I doubt there is a single player that wouldn't try anything to up their draft prospects.  Young had years of tape and that shouldve been what the decision was based on. Not a scale and throwing in shorts.  ( btw I think the combine and pro days are 90% a waste of time) Young has it financially made already. It's up to him if he wants to be a good football player too. I think the benching was the best thing that could've happened to him. It remains to be seen if it was enough
