wppete Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 I thought Beane would be pulling some trades by now. Guess the whole Araiza situation was a major distraction. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In or out? In terms of in, I don't think we need anyone other than a punter who we'll pick up via free agency or waivers. In terms of out, I doubt teams will be looking to trade now - they'll want to see who we cut first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams way down the waiver list sometimes do a trade for a player they know will get claimed above them. 2. Vet cuts allow a vet to choose where he goes. A trade locks him into the trading team. Doesn't happen too often, but it does make sense at times. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Small sample size, I know. But it is the reason I'm wondering. Doyle was a draft pick and a project. McDermott & Beane give a lot of their draft picks a chance to make the team. They want to coach them up and turn that raw talent into a starter. Doyle may not be there yet, but he'll get his chances. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the Seahawks get him. Only for fantasy purposes. I have Tyler Lockett who I got super late in one of my drafts. I have incredibly low hopes for him with either of the schmucks that the Seahawks have behind center right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Rappaport, Garoppolo doesn't want to go there - perhaps due to leftover loyalty to the 49ers. Not like he has got many other options though; presume he'll (and the 49ers) will wait until a QB goes down.

Seems very weird way to use a roster spot when your intention is to compete for a Super Bowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon so, because his guaranteed salary doesn't kick in until September, and they'll probably do something with IR to keep the players they want. They'll ask him to renegotiate his contract long term if they keep him as back up; if he refuses then I imagine they'll cut him before the guarantee date, whilst hoping a QB goes down at a Super Bowl chasing team in the mean time.

Not to argue your point, but if you are a Super Bowl chasing team and your best option is to pick up Jimmy Garoppolo, you are no longer chasing a Super Bowl.

Perhaps a play off chasing team then - if Tannehill or Ryan picks up an injury, for example. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I suppose they can keep an extra guy until they do that. They don't "have" to sign a punter,but they will. Per NFL rules they DO have to get down to 53 by tomorrow,punter or not. Most of us assume they will sign a punter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use that space like a cut veteran to get someone to IR. I would assume Wednesday or Thursday they will sign a punter when they have opened up additional spots. I expect Doyle and Stevenson to go to IR with at minimum Doyle being on recall IR. We will also see about the Morris injury and if that becomes an IR/recall need. They will sign a veteran punter and give them about 1 week to get ready and work with Bass and Ferguson. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No such luck with a trade IMO. Not sure what they were wanting earlier in the year but it's too late now. Nobody wants that contract now. The only way would be some sort of trade with a "salary dump" like in hockey, LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLFan Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 I suspect these are cuts that are not priority for resigning to the PS. Those they will save for a mass cutdown in hopes they will get lost in the wash with the hundreds of others being cut at the same time around the league. 20 minutes ago, Rochesterfan said: I think most people assume they will not sign a punter for the initial 53.
