Initial 53 | Cuts and Practice Squad Buildout

[wu-dai clan]

Woods was corresponding cut made for Haskins addition...now they have to cut someone else, I think it'll be Hart

Yessir.
I was thinking in terms of personnel and depth, over straight up transactions.
We no doubt need to stay tuned.
Re your point on Hart, it could be.
However Hart is an athletic, raw outside CB, and Molden is an instinctive, competitve Slot Corner.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Mustipher - Popper missed it or didn't get word yet

The list is the Chargers release, so maybe Sam isn't yet signed. Hortiz isn't stopping just because of a date/time, lol.

Dupree, Molden, Haskins, Jefferson, Tart....Fisk and Brash on the practice squad...

This is how you build championship depth...

On Stick, lol...I give up. Clearly my philosophy towards the backup QB position differs from most...I just dont care...but Ill debate no furthur...Ill trust in Joe and Jim.

Worth checking out, or nah? You know coach likes 'Bama in the trenches.

A surprise: The #Raiders are cutting DT Byron Young, their third-round pick from last year, source said. The Bama product was on the initial 53-man roster. Now, out.

The Molden trade means that there is another cut coming...

I am gonna guess there will be 2 or 3 more after Molden. no facts for it - spidey senses say Joe wants to shake a couple. I still think new QB2 odds > 50% and Stick goes to PS. Its odd we don't have a 3rd PS arm for practices.

Maybe Mr. Taylor is on his way out of LA either him or Hart

Well you are kind of contradicting yourself

Hortiz isnt stopping, improving depth at every position on the roster, always trying to improve. it means some guys like Brash, who really earned a spot dont make the roster and go to PS.

So why doesnt that apply to QB where the performance was dismal? I think one can fairly say that not one player on the 53 right now earned it less than Easton Stick.

Competitors Welcome! One needed at back up QB!

Nobody is safe with Hortiz in charge

Because those guys will see the field...I dont think our QB2 will...

I'm still expecting that QB trade with the browns, and probably an additional move to get another TE

He did last year for 4 games and went 0-4. Losing to entire team of chiefs back ups. What if we had been on wild card bubble and needed a competent QB2 that could hold it down and go 2-2?

Good planning isnt HOPE, that your starter never gets injured. Ours is great but he is increasingly battling injuries the past few seasons.
