Root of the Rico argument

this is not the first time disgruntled players claim there is an inside crowd and players looking on the outside.
dez said it.
may be it is sour grapes.
or may be not.
there is a report that rico liked a negative garrett tweet.
i would not put it beyond garrett to **** a player that speaks out against him.

Again, Garrett could just cut him. No need for an agenda.
 
I think Rico just might make the 53

Like Antonio Gates, his hoops rebounding skills are not something others can just learn. So much more he needs to learn, but I get why they’re reluctant to give up. He has a physical and instinctive knack for finding the ball

I’m not in the camp that be crushed if we didn’t keep him—not like he’s irreplaceable—but I’d like to keep him if possible

However, unlike some of you, I also think the young kid Shultz has a ton of room to grow.
He belongs on the OS, but I worry that we’ll lose him

it is suspicious to cut a player who was highly visible.
also fo may be interested in rico, as stephen as stated positive things.
another way to screw a raw player's career is to obviously undercut his development.
give him reps in the 4th quarter instead of the 2nd.
or to leave him on ir unable to practice with the team

i believe (though not 100% sure) that the team holds the same amount of exclusive time on rico as schultz due to the practice squad then the ir.
 
anyone outside 3rd round is a long shot.
he was held back when left on the ir last year because he could not practice.
it is hard to believe they would let him play (and played well) last preseason and then dog him this preseason.
nobody forgets how to play after a few months.
sounds like an agenda to me.
What would that agenda be?

Yeah, I wasn’t saying g try to put Gathers on PS.
But any team can pluck Shultz if the put him there. He would’ve unprotected
 
Then why wait. When you make an example, it's best to do it quickly. Makes no sense to wait. Every team will make their cuts at the same time.

true, but garrett has constraints.
he cannot just go cut a well-known player like rico before cutdowns come.
in 2017 preseason, coaches, fo and players were singing rico's praises.
my suspicion is rico was pissed being left on ir - losing service time? and not getting development
so when someone tweeted 'fire garrett', he liked it like an idiot.
