Official Cut Thread

It's not JC's knowledge of the playbook, system or personnel that concerns me, it's his absolute lack of ability to execute it.

If we get down to 3rd QB we're screwed anyway, the Texans were the exception, not the rule.

No point in just pissing away roster spots when we have needs at DL and Secondary that could fill those spots and perhaps play ST.

It makes no sense to keep a guy that will never see the field and make somebody get cut that is more deserving to make the team. There is absolutely no need for 3 QBs on the team. Somebody will get cut that could contribute in some to keep Jimmy who is basically a water boy with pads that will never leave the sidelines for his entire career.

99% of the teams in the NFL beg to differ. You know, those that carry 3 QB's.

I think it comes down to one of two thoughts and the same goes with AE. Hurney is trying to save face and hope they will one day mysteriously develop or he is a complete idiot.

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
