Thoughts on Early Cuts and the 53-Man Roster

I know tackles are needed because of injury/illness, but I wasn’t a fan of trading Pierre Strong after just one season.

Almost perfect.

Releasing Kevin Harris and keeping only three RBs is irregular. Big gamble.

Keeping Mack Wilson seems like a luxury with Magnificent Mapu, Mr Superman. I’d actually swap him with Calvin Munson. Wilson not Mapu.

And like most people you have us keeping Atonio Mafi and releasing Chasen Hines. Why?

Hines could be our RG if Onwenu is kicked out to RT.

Hines I trust more than the inexperienced Mafi.

It sucks we have to keep two OTs that we haven’t seen. The guy from Illinois (college) and Vikings is definitely a keeper, though.

Tyrone Wheatley is a curious case. Treated like royalty at Meechigan, where his dad was a legendary RB, he was a TE with fabulous size and oodles of athleticism. Sky-high potential for the Walverines to drool over.

But it was never realized. Never came close to making it happen. Then he transferred out to tiny schools to seemingly hide out.

Wayne State.

Now he’s gained 60 pounds and is learning his craft as a pro. He has that kind of physical potential. Like a first-rounder’s.

I’m just more worried about what’s going in between his ears. Or the lack thereof.

Not a big Mack Wilson fan. Rather keep Perkins for edge. Like Munson also but he will stay for PS. Also release Rieffe and keep either Hines or Ameer Speed.
