Official Cuts/Practice Squad Thread

[Garthshort]

Two things:
1. We'll know if the team thinks that Butler might have a future, if they sign him to the PS.
2. I recently read (and I already forget where) that Arizona has a Top Ten Talent rating on a roster of players under 25 years of age. If so SK must be doing something right.

As usual, the same people can't wait to crap on Keim. It's like dumping on Trump. Whatever. Time to play football!

One may have the wrong people in place helping to make decisions while the other is the creator of the cesspool in which he wallows.

Not only are practice squads expanding to 16 players this year, but 6 of those spots can be occupied by vested veterans (4+ years of service). An important note this weekend, as veterans let go today have a better chance of finding work again sooner.

The #Cardinals are waiving CB Chris Jones, source said. He played 11 games (three starts) and broke up six passes last season. Should have a decent shot to be claimed.

What.....

I wonder if that means the UA kid is sticking? Probably either him or Crawley (or a waiver guy)

Sure they do. You expect your mid-round picks to contribute somehow. Butler will have appeared in 0 games as a Cardinal, and that's embarrassing.

Stats can mislead - We assembled a huge room of receivers and "we had to cut someone."

Nother way to look at it - Look at the guys we're keeping; they represent a lot of talent for one position.

Talent means nothing if Huey don’t realize talent. All drafted player have talent.

Obviously I’m rooting for Whittaker to stick. He would be a nice back up at slot CB

Yes they do. Do me a favor look up how many 4th rounders even make it to there second contract. Here’s a hint...not a lot.

There’s a yawning gap between not getting a second contract and not playing in a single game, but you prolly knew that already, right?

I’m not concerned about second contracts I’m concerned about fourth-round picks, especially the #1 fourth-rounder, literally doing nothing for the team.

Your standards should be higher than this. This is the second fourth-rounder to be cut without playing a down under Keim’s leadership

 

[Jetstream Green]

If the Cards cut Butler this early in the cycle, they’re not bringing him back at all. It’s personal

This, it's not about Butler's potential physically but there's a attitude flaw with him which for me seems evident. There is too much hush hush about why since he joined the Cards which goes beyond his ability to play football

 

[Mainstreet]

It's a bit surprising for the Cardinals to waive Chris Jones but I'm taking this as a good thing... I hope, I hope.

 

[TJ]

Jace Whittaker cut.

This. It's clear he doesn't have the drive. The guy has been healthy for about 10 months. He should have rocked up at camp looking like the Terminator. Instead he looked like he played Xbox the whole time.

And in the limited video we saw he just looked lethargic. Where other guys were running practice reps like they were a game he looked like he was going through the motions.

People wondered why he dropped. Now we know.

 

[BritCard]

Chris Jones has promise. Surprised he's cut considering our issues.

This.


This is the 3rd round of 2019. How many of these players made it & how many did not? Point is the majority don't make it. It's a crap shoot.

[Mainstreet]

Jace Whittaker cut.

It's starting to get interesting.

 

[binkar]

I’m super bummed about Hakeem, and certainly you never want to have a 4th rounder not play a down for your team, but not every player has the same risk profile. Hakeem has some elite traits that you could dream on, and also has some traits that could lead you to believe this would be his fate. You could draft a special teams player in the 4th round that stayed with you for 4+ years and pat yourself on the back, but at the end of the day sometimes you have to take risks on guys that have a chance of being great. You win some, you lose some.

No you should actually know how the draft works and have a realistic view of it. A 4th round pick contributing and playing a legit role for the team is a lot more rare than a 4th rounder being cut.

I'm a bit surprising for the Cardinals to waive Chris Jones but I'm taking this as a good thing... I hope, I hope.

They have to dislike his personality or work habits. He is clearly at least the 3rd best CB on the field on the team.

I think this is a mistake.

I'm starting to get nervous about it as well with the cut of Jace Whittaker.

 

[Garthshort]

The CB we cut (Lewis) and was picked up by the Jets, has now been cut by the Jets.
