[Cowboyny]

Called it!

I was kind of hoping Winfrey would make it. I don't see Brown being kept.

 

[Teague31]

Ridiculous to risk Winfrey: sure they signed him from the UFL but dude played well all preseason

 

[Carson]

Saw this one coming.

Osa, Thomas
Mazi, Toia.

This team doesn't rock the boat.

This is exactly why I don't watch much preseason football anymore. Good performances really don't even matter.

Still hoping they pick up someone that gets cut or they trade for a DT. Mazi and Toia need to grow up fast.

i think Winfrey will sign with someone else,releasing him was a mistake.

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

I think it has something to do with being able to be claimed on waivers. And a vet status type thing.
Waived meaning they are exposed to the waiver wire.

Released as a vet player means they are not.

I am not 100% on all of that. Or the exact rules. But it is something like that.

Also released means they can negotiate woth any team right away. As to waived, they must clear it first and not to be closed by another team, before negotiating with any team.

Thx

He might, but teams weren't exactly beating down his door when we signed him.

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

Players who have not played long in the league (I think less than 4 years) have to go through waivers which allows other teams to claim them with the winning team being the worst team from the previous season usually.

Players who have been in the league a while (vested veteran) become free agents immediately and can sign with any team they want.

Thx!

Waived - Less than 4 years accrued and must go through waivers

Released - Become immediate free agents. “Vested Veterans”

Thx

On radio they saying Winfrey is actually on the team. The Fan saying initial report was wrong.

 

[NeonNinja]

We are clearly not keeping the players that performed best and earned a spot. However, expected by the duo.

When they traded Micah for 53 new all pro players in a 32 team trade this will all be moot.

I jest.
