Day after the night before (in the U.K. at least) and still baffled by a handful of the choices. I guess we’ll have to see how the next couple of days pan out with pick up free agents and those on waivers but the cutting of Howard and Mancz bothers me the most, as they’re better than who we have kept - not that that’s saying much in terms of Howard! I’m hopeful than Mancz might be down to roster tinkering so we can put someone on IR, and we’ll sign him back today; or at least get another Centre through the door. Same, if I’m honest, at TE. Dodson’s social media post, if legitimate, may be unprofessional but it appears accurate for now.

Providing this is legitimate, he does realise he’s not been cut and will have to share a locker room with some of the players he’s indirectly calling out (not that I disagree)?

We do? Outside of Knox, TE is a weakness on the roster.

Thought we’d keep Howard over Sweeney, and Mancz over one of the CBs - Lewis or McCloud.

Hope so. Doesn't make much sense otherwise as it stands.

... Punter?

Why not shuffle with someone like Hart? Why Mancz?

@GunnerBill Mancz??? I assume that's down to injury?

Or we might take someone off the practice squad, if we feel someone is better suited to the role there.

You'd have cut Bobby Hart yesterday to bring him back today? Some would take that a sign of desperation...

If we were going to let Howard go then re-sign him to a cheaper contract... wouldn't it make more sense to just restructure his contract?

That'd be one way to tell them they're off...

Is it fair to say those who have interviews being posted on YouTube have been kept?

Think there was a report stating that Josh is the best punter at Two Bills Drive, currently.

Yep, as per the tweet on page one. The reporters on Twitter seem to have missed it too. 😊 Think that’s the last time I try and compile a list.

Not been seen but I don’t think Hodgins has been reported as cut yet. ETA - Same goes for Tanner Owen, I think.

Remembered him just as I hit post!

I’m not sure we’ve officially cut anyone yet today, but going off reports I think I’m right in saying the below have apparently been so: RB - Duke Johnson, Raheem Blackshear WR - Tanner Gentry TE - OJ Howard OL - Alec Anderson, Luke Tenuta DL - CJ Brewer, Brandin Bryant, Prince Emili I’ve probably missed some so say if so!

Claims it relates to the release of Tony Jefferson by the Ravens. Though that doesn’t explain why there are no references to the Saints on his Twitter account.

Whatever we do we should improve in terms of punter from last year.

I always expected Matakevich to be retained, and probably Jones too. Kumerow is the one who I thought we might cut.

Perhaps Barkley knows he’s going to be cut but has already said he won’t accept any other offers and will stay with the PS?

Think I would have cut Kumerow personally. Don’t like what we’re doing one bit so far.

Who are they keeping ahead of Hodgins?

If Johnson was cut, then Blsckshear was always going to follow.
