The Official NFL Cut Thread

Would love to get Garcia on the PS if at all possible. I still believe there is something that is potentially worth developing there.

Lucien seemed OK in the first preseason game, then disappeared.

Last night he looked disinterested at times. On at least two occasions, he looked unsure of where to line up so you have to question if he really knows the playbook.

His route on the 2nd INT was embarrassing

Coleman started all 16 games at RT for the Browns last season.

Looking even less likely now that the Pats can trade for an expensive new playmaker at any position.

This is where restructuring would come in.

Kikaha is quite intriguing player. Very speedy and good at blitzing.

This is where restructuring would come in.

The Pats would need the player to agree to a restructured contract prior to executing the trade. For players like Tate (due $7M in 2018) and Thomas (due $8.5M in 2018 and $14M in 2019), a necessarily significant restructuring/pay reduction could be an obstacle.

So where can we shave some cap?

Not sure we realistically can.

It doesn't appear to me that there are any reasonable ways at this point to "shave" any significant amount of 2018 cap expense without serious consequences to the 2019 cap.

I am not buying that this team will go into the season with 3 wrs with the edelman suspension. Two of those guys haven’t lived up to the billing as well. They will add another wr. Maybe they bring britt back who knows. Bill’s asking for trouble if he sticks with 3 wrs.
