RELEASED Official Cowboy Cuts Discussion Thread

[The Quest for Six]

I like CJ but I’m a bit surprised they cut Olumba

Olumba just doesn't have enough speed to play in the NFL.....he even acknowleges that he's not that fast, the man knows his limitations

Thompson is most likely making the team.

Why? Because Wilson is gimpy right now? He certainly didn't play well enough to deserve a roster spot.

I think it's Quiero. We could use an extra LB.

 

[JonJon]

Hee hee.

 

[Ron12]

yeah, the Seahawks can rebuild their legion of boom again that way. They already got Clowney today.

Houston did not get much for Clowney !

I don't think he played a snap all preseason. Why would they keep him?

right. Seattle is a 12-4 team

no no nooooooo we don't need more than 6 LB

we're a 4-3 team that mostly uses nickel

Because they are only keeping 5 CBs and it appears they might be light along the OL and only going 10 DL. There's a real shot they are keeping 5 Ss - Heath, Wilson, Woods, Thompson, Frazier.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

Must be having a hard time deciding on Frazier vs Thompson ...

Guys I hope will (or just think might in the case of Mike White) end up on the PS. PHillips could make it back to the 53 if they put Gifford on short term IR and Christion could be the new Jamiel Showers.
• Nate Hall, LB (via Michael Gehlken)
• Kasey Redfern, P/K (via Michael Gehlken)
• Juwann Bushell-Beatty, OT (via Michael Gehlken)
• Darius Jackson, RB (via Michael Gehlken)
• Lukayus McNeil, OG (via Michael Gehlken)
• Jake Campos, OT (via Bobby Belt)
• Marcus Lucas, TE (via Michael Gehlken)
• Jameill Showers, S (via Jane Slater)
• Tyvis Powell, CB (via Michael Gehlken)
• Reggie Davis, WR (via Jon Machota)
• Justin Phillips, LB (via Jon Machota)
• George Iloka, S (via Jon Machota)
• Codey McElroy, TE (via Jon Machota)
• Treston Decoud, CB (via Treston Decoud)
• Drew Scott, LS (via Michael Gehlken)
• Ryan Yurachek, FB (via Michael Gehlken)
• Jordan Chunn, RB (via Michael Gehlken)
• Daniel Wise, DL (via Jon Machota)
• Donovan Olumba, CB (via Jon Machota)
• Mike Jackson, CB (via Jon Machota)
• Mike White, QB (via Michael Gehlken)
• Taryn Christion, QB (via Michael Gehlken)
• Mike Weber, RB (via Adam Schefter)

So , I take it that Mitch Hyatt is gonna be in the roster.

 

[Stash]

Names that I am shocked I have not heard cut yet:

Kyle Queiro
Shakir Soto
Cody Wichmann
Darian Thompson

I think Thompson is making this team.

 

[VACowboy]

Well, I dunno. I really liked what I saw from Olumba. I do hope he makes it to our practice squad because I'd hate to see him on another team. I think he was one of our best corners.

I liked what I saw from Olumba too but you're talking about "turning him into something nice" to replace an All Pro. You bash Jones for not generating picks. How many balls has Olumba intercepted in the NFL?

This is just bizarre.

 

[Altestic]

So , I take it that Mitch Hyatt is gonna be in the roster.

no no nooooooooooo

Hyatt is a JAG

 

[DCreppinBoysfan]

Olumba just doesn't have enough speed to play in the NFL.....he even acknowleges that he's not that fast, the man knows his limitations

Anthony Henry wasn’t that fast either. Speed isn’t everything at that position

 

[Beaker42]

Oh, in that case, Mike White will DEFINITELY be on the PS. Who’d want that kid?

 

[America's Cowboy]

So the team is going with 5 CBs only?

I have a feeling they are wanting an extra roster spot for either a DE or a LB.

 

[The Quest for Six]

Anthony Henry wasn’t that fast either. Speed isn’t everything at that position

this isn't the same league, they don't allow the clutching and grabbing Henry did anymore

 

[Echo9]

So , I take it that Mitch Hyatt is gonna be in the roster.

I was just highlighting from the list of guys who have already been cut. Personally, I was expecting Hyatt to eventually be on that list. But he's not yet. My guess is they are cutting OL with some amount of promise last.

 

[JD_KaPow]

I believe Jackson's the first guy Dallas has drafted in the first 5 rounds and cut before his first season since Danny Coale in 2012.
