Cool work here. Thanks for sharing! Would Shavers not be considered?

SVGP and the Grable move was a bit surprising

The timeline matters here, as well. If you go back to March when O Gun was signed, we then had only Oliver Jones and Carter on the roster. Beane has since stated that once they learned about the suspension, the FA DT market had essentially dried up for what they were looking for. This lead them to the renegotiation of the deal. There was also no way to forecast that they’ve be drafting two defensive tackles a month later. So although Larry might have been in the initial re-tooling plans, I think the suspension moved him to more of an insurance role. Now that we’ve restocked in the draft with what appears to be reliable youth, they can shelf O gun for weeks and have him available as a “pull here in case of emergency” whether that be injuries or performance. The 3.5 guarenteed is a sunken cost, and I think Beane may have seen it as a bit of insurance heading into the draft and offseason to make sure they aren’t bone dry come January relying on the likes of Eli Ankou and Zion Logue when it matters most.

I will sub Lundt in for Green and I’m with you. Kendrick signed a pretty minimal deal as a FA, and I do not believe he will be subject to waivers (4+ year vet). I think they’ll keep the youngin’ who might not clear waivers and try and bring Green back to the PS

Lamar Jackson released?!?!???? Not that one. The CB from the Falcons.

Spotrac has it on his yearly breakdown. If you scroll all the way to the right, it shows that his dead cap would be 3.5 from his signing bonus which was guaranteed. The other 2 mil of guarentees, which ads up the the 5.5 you keep referencing, was voided from PED suspension. Reading the contract notes below the yearly breakdown explains this. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/_/id/21807/larry-ogunjobi Over the cap has this shown in a different way. If you look at the yearly breakdown chart, and switch the dead and cap savings to post June 1, it shows that it’s 3.5 in dead and 3mil in cap savings. Maybe someone else like @BarleyNY can chime in on the contract deets.

You keep referencing these numbers, but again I do not think this is accurate. They removed a 2 million dollar salary guaranteed voided due to the PEDs. He’s 3.5 in guarentees. If they cut him before he gets a game check, that’s all she wrote.

My guess is practice squad. I just don’t see how they’d fit him on the roster even if Carter is moved. It doesn’t make sense positionally either

I wonder what the worst way to be released would be? I’m sure there are some good stories out there

I get what you mean, but these guys are in peak physical form. As a lesser personal example fro my own collegjant career when I played ball, I was actually faster my junior year weighing an additional 10 lbs than my senior year. I tried to shave some weight and it only brought my mass now, but did not add to my acceleration or top end speed. It’s a lot about body composition. To think he’ll shave 10 lbs and be meaningfully faster is not practical.

Dewayne Carter still getting reps 🥶

There are 1000 guys like this. He’s just unfortunately lacking the size, elite traits or versatility that will keep him on a 53

Can Davidson kick field goals?

How many are you up to?

Honestly Davidson might be a better punter than a TE

I’ll give you Tre, but Max is on IR imo.

Interesting that Solomon is still in the game with ParisShand but Landon Jackson seems done.

Good point. I have heard of guys being released being toward, “hang around town, don’t go too far” but with cut down being next Tuesday maybe heading home for the weekend regardless

It is easier for a young guy like 77 to clear waivers at cut down day during the year. If they’re going to release him it will be now while all the other teams are also trying to bring back their own guys to the PS and know injuries and such.

I am Not so so sure Chase Lundt is as safe as many think he is. Back at LT and letting up pressures

Agree I think Cairo is likely a cut, just a media sensation from Hard Knocks unless he can be a legit 6LB who plays specials. They e been burned too much to go young and shallow at LB

Interesting Shavers night is done but Shenault in at WR. The writing is on the wall for him

Yeah he’s been done for a while. Idk if Shaq is healthy but if he is available as a reserve LB than Ulo is done

Is @Draconator not around tonight? Usually him and @HIT BY SPIKES let us know what we’re drankin

Respect.
