RELEASED Official Cowboy Cuts Discussion Thread

[KingintheNorth]

Didnt get how people were projecting him to start. Some even putting him near the top of all safties here since Woodie...lol.

Offseason optimism, I guess.

I was just hoping for competition and stop just anointing Heath the starter.

Iloka never took advantage of this. It was clear from camp he was not a threat to win a starting job.

• Quinn & Gregory will open the Season on the Reserve/Suspended list.
• Daniel Ross and Jon'Vea Johnson have been placed on season ending Reserve/Injured List.

16 players have been released, and 71 players remain on the active roster. The Cowboys must cut 18 more players. I can come up with 15 pretty easy decisions. I'm struggling with the last 3.

Daniel Wise or Jalen Jelks? - pick 1 - Will the Cowboys trade Taco Charlton and keep both?

Joe Looney or Adam Redmond or Xavier Su'a Filo - pick 2 - Can the Cowboys trade Looney or Su'a Filo?

Darian Thompson or Kavon Frazier? - pick 1

Luke Gifford and Chris Covington? - What about Rolando McClain being reinstated?

 

[KingintheNorth]

Daniel Ross and Jon'Vea Johnson have been placed on season ending Reserve/Injured List.

Cowboys placing (stashing) a few young players on IR already. Hope they don't draw unwanted attention for this; the penalty is draft picks, not just fines.

Just saw Westry was placed on IR too.


I know all teams do this. They usually don't try to do 3-4 young players all on cut day though.

62 CB Chris Westry - Released

 

[Tabascocat]

Sure is taking a long time to cut White

 

[Risen Star]

 

[warroom]

Cowboys have waived RB Jordan Chunn, source said. He's expected to be signed to practice squad on Sunday — if he clears waivers.

 

[KingintheNorth]

This time last year, people were talking top 15 draft pick.

 

[lwehlers]

looking like morris will be staying longer even when zeke comes back.

 

[Altestic]

Olumba for me.

Both. Keep 7 CBs and 11 DLs. 5 WRs, 3 TEs, 2 QBs, 8 OL, 6 LB, 3 HB, 1 FB.

 

[mmohican29]

Good sign that Zeke signing is imminent.

 

[Stash]

I was just hoping for competition and stop just anointing Heath the starter.

Iloka never took advantage of this. It was clear from camp he was not a threat to win a starting job.

Yeah. He never showed up.

 

[Jake]

Darius Jackson and Chunn got released? Shocking.

 

[Teague31]

Broaddus’ pet cat

 

[Praxit]

..not many will agree, but rather have him go then Morris.

 

[cowboyec]

looking like morris will be staying longer even when zeke comes back.

or they're keeping Weber.

 

[waldoputty]

chunn released

 

[Altestic]

Weber should be on the PS too at best... he was worse than Jackson and Chunn.

So we're just keeping 3 HBs? Zeke, Morris, Pollard? And only 2 in the meantime until we get Zeke under contract.

 

[KingintheNorth]

looking like morris will be staying longer even when zeke comes back.

I would think Weber make the team if Zeke signs and Morris is let go?

 

[Altestic]

or they're keeping Weber.

that would suck. Weber was the worst back out of Jackson, Chunn, and Weber.
