Gotta believe McCray and Patrick are on thin ice as well as Lenzy Pipkins. Those 3 are all in danger of being shuttled out the door after we potentially claim some guys. Heck, Ringo may not be safe either if we were looking for help on the DL. He was last in so he'll be first out if we find someone.

Who is coming? Post your rumors and desires. Any guys who might have trade value?

I'm watching Seattle's cuts. I gotta think Rubin and Desir have some appeal to us. There has to be some OL out there we're interested in. Bears cut one that a friend of mine who writes on them was surprised to see. Bears have a very good OL so one of their cuts is intriguing.

Vogel, Goode and Crosby look set so no drama there for the first time in awhile.

Still think Mays and Cobb are possibilities for trade action. although, confidence is low on RC18. Curious to see what Eagles do at RB.

I think McCray and Patrick are just being saved in case they can't find anyone they like to bring in after waivers go through.

I don't think Patrick is on thin ice, I thought he earned his spot... and some thought he played well enough last year to get a spot (I didn't) but he had a cast on his hand and still played surprisingly well.

Ringo has physical limitations, but he's not bad at pass rushing and that's important.

Who is the Bears OL was surprised to see?

Cobb has big contract and low numbers... that's normally not good for trade actions especially with a GM that has said he doesn't like trading away players based on how it effect players in the locker room.

Mays could be traded... but I hope not... I still think he has the highest ceiling (and lowest floor) of the RBs that they drafted.

Will Poehls was the G that my buddy was surprised to see be let go as he thought he played well in the pre season. The guy is 6'8 344lbs out of Montana...a true Grizzly Bear! He was close in Tennessee a few years ago and Bears had him on their PS squad previously. Sounds like the PERFECT utility lineman for us can play both T spots and G, something Spriggs CAN'T do!...

From Titans.com:
PRO: The Titans signed Will Poehls as a rookie free agent on May 16, 2014 to provide competition at the offensive tackle position. The 6-foot-8-inch, 334-pounder is a physical lineman who is capable of playing both tackle spots. The Montana product spent the entirety of his first two campaigns on the Titans’ practice squad.

I am overrating the Hawks cuts but we're desperate so I think both of those guys are potentials.

C/OG McCray makes sense because you need a back-up Center, and currently Barclay is dealing with an ankle injury (it's ankle right?) and potentially could be IRed and/or take a number of weeks to fully heal. While Patrick got a concussion and I haven't read that he's clear of it (yet). So they needed a back-up Center, at least until one of those guys heal.

CB Pipkins makes less sense to me. Yes he's show potential and might of been able to sneak into one of the last spots but there are currently 7 CBs. The last time I remember the Packers kept 7 CBs was in 2012 when they kept CB Brandian Ross for all of one week, before releasing him as LB Erik Walden suspension was lifted. But the Packers have an injury prone OLB group and OLB Gilbert looked fairly good and might be close to the last spots too... and I thought it'd go to Gilbert.

This is 100% completely speculation, but I have been wondering if there might be a trade in the works for Gunter... some teams prefer those long arms guys. Of course, it could be the simply answer of Pipkins simply graded out among the top 53.

Here's our new C, I hope, unless he has a medical issue...
