Two human beings are out of a job and have had their dreams crushed . I don't think yay should be the word. In the light of what happened in Indy I hope these reactions happen less.
This is absolutely myself included, I am not a Rosen fan for an example but in no way should I ever hope he professionally fails and wish that despair that comes with it on him.
Of course you are right, but I have to admit to breathing a sigh of relief about no longer haviing to worry about whether RS-J would drop an easy one or have the ball stripped away or whether that Williams fella would say "Olay!" as he let still another receiver run by him.

Pro football is a harsh reality show.

I definitely feel bad for Chad. I think Brandon has had enough time to put money aside for himself if he were smart with it.

I think we forget these are real people with real lives and not Madden characters.

Meh.

Part of the job.

Its sports, its entertainment.

People being out of work happens every day.

Let fans be fans.

You can say that in a lot of places in life.

Its sports, and it is talk on a message board.

These are athletes.

Yes, there hopes and dreams are dashed and need to go find work elsewhere....join the club. Now go find a job best of luck to them.

I like when players I do not like get cut.

But to each his own. I get the other opinion, just do not agree.

These are twenty something year old kids who were fortunate to realize their dream of playing professional football. They made more money that most kids their age so I don't feel sorry for them as human beings. The reason they are no longer in NFL is their own doing, they just weren't good enough. Now like all human beings they need to move on and find a career. It's not like they are in their 80's and lost their pension or can't earn a living for themselves because they can't work.

To put it in prospective, at your job you have employees or co-workers that were not doing their job, collecting a pay check but not really deserving their salary, while you and others were earning your salaries for doing your job well. Those people get let go, chances are your saying good riddance or make sure we hire someone who can pull their own weight.

Cuts prove we have a trash roster. Cutting down to 51 shows it is. I have generally been of the thought that Keim is average...this is another reason I am now doubting that belief. A really bad look imo.

Cutting two former third-round picks in one day is a significant demerit on Keim’s resume.

Only keeping 3 corners is a concern. I know we will add another 1 or 2 in the next couple days, and Budda can always slide down to play nickle, but we might have the weakest group of corners in the league for the first 6 weeks.

It looks like we are really testing the strength in numbers theory at ILB, too. The 4 ILBs behind Hicks and Reddick would have a tough time cracking a lot of rosters.

On the brighter side, the receiver room actually looks pretty strong, and we finally have some returners on the team.

Overall, this looks like a roster severely impacted by poor drafts and way too much dead cap space. Hopefully the 2019 draft class is the start of the turnaround.
They ended up keeping 10 out of the 12 draft picks so maybe it is a good sign?

Let's hope they were smart enough to walk out of college with their degree in hand. If not they should go back and finish up and earn the degree.

Guess I should be starting Golladay on my fantasy team this week.

Meh

That’s what Andrew Luck should think to season ticket holders who cry about his “bad timing” in deciding to retire.

I don’t agree with taking joy in someone else bad fortune.

How do we digress from cuts to huge debates? If you feel that compelled to make a statement start a new thread.

Mine wasn’t the original post taking pleasure in cuts.

He probably does. Probably thought that before he retired, too.

Players do not care about fans.....just thier money.

Which is fine, I have no issues with that, its a business.

Commented on someone's judgement of other posters.

We digress because people call out other posters and fans instead of talking about a topic.

I guess people feel good about themselves when they do it? I have no idea.

I think the cuts for the team are done anyway.

Bad blocker and can't catch, useless

I would have said lack of consistency, especially for a third year player. It looks like KK will value consistency over potential, which makes me happy.

Rewatch the Denver game.

One signature play - Seals-Jones grabs a short pass on a seam route down the middle and drags defenders well past the first down marker where...a pursuer strips the ball for a take-away. Bundle this with S-J's propensity for "dropping the easy ones" and you begin to pick up a disturbing pattern that, sooner or later, will cost you games.
