WOW

 

[MadCardDisease]

Not a shocker. Figured it was only a matter of time.

 

[WindCardinal]

Dumb move... Should of Just left him inactive the rest of the season. Won't get any compensatory picks (assuming someone signed him anyway)

 

[jmt]

I hope he gets help soon.

 

[PDXChris]

Hope he gets the helps he needs.

I'm sorry, I must have misread the title... So Amos Jones wasn't the one cut?

 

[dreamcastrocks]

While Floyd wasn't going to be re-signed anyway, it almost seems like cutting him is more about frustration about our season.

+1.

Speaking purely business, I agree. Its the same as keeping Daryl Washington on the books in order to try and get some of that money back.

Something must have gone REAL BAD WRONG for them to cut him.

Nothing more as a fan that I can ask to be done about the situation. Now as a person talking about another person, it sounds like Floyd is in a REAL bad place, hope things turn around for him, and that statement has nothing to do about football.

Just WOW, that is a shock.

Mikey B doesnt mess around. Cut Floyd like a bad habit.

Keim would probably do a mega reach with that pick anyway.

Its going to get some player's attention. That is the second player released in two days, and both deserved it......and I say that strictly based on their play.

Of course it might be to send the message "when it comes to our organization's values, we don't compromise for the sake of a business advantage"

Right? We need ILBers, but lets sign this cornerback from East Sarasota State University at North Dakota.

The cap question is:

Do the Cardinals now take on $7,320,000 in dead money or just 3 games worth of that value ? And does that carry over to 2017, or just sits there for 2016 ?

I dunno, just asking.

Prorated. Roughly $850k hit this season

this was the last year of his deal

and since he was a veteran -- this years money became guaranteed when he was on the opening day roster

this really doesnt have any cap implications

 

[TJ]

FYI, he wasn't going to factor into the Comp pick convo, especially after this. He was only gonna get a prove it chump change deal on the free market

Sorry to hear for him, I hope he lands on his feet. Thanks for your years with us.

I hope the guy gets some help.

Now I am left to wonder if the "sweep under the rug" comment from TM a couple weeks ago was related to MF. I think we were all a bit perplexed by the comment coming from a member of the D (when that unit had been more than serviceable). When TM made that comment, my first thought was, he talking about a member of the O.

Lets face it, I can think of more than a few balls Carson delivered to MF that he just couldnt bring in. And I am just talking about the deep balls.

Possibly more of a PR move to try and salvage the image of the organization to the fan base.

Feel sorry for the guy, hope he gets his life in order.

I don't believe this was a cut for performance (or BA would have spoken about it), his issues with the arrest and other circumstances that we are not privy to likely led to the decision.

It's a lame attempt in the face of Arians' vigorous defense of Amos this week, if that's their goal.

When I say image of the organization, I didn't mean performance wise.

He'll get claimed by Pats and win a SB, watch.
