Mildly surprised Okine was cut.

Agreed, he is a 100% motor guy

I'm most surprised about them keeping 3 QBs, seems like a waste.

That could change when the waiver wire starts up at 4pm

Seriously?!? Okine was cut?!. This grigson guy makes me sick

I'm basing my surprise about Irving on how much the Colts always gushed about him. 

They do that with every guy. But you have to read between the lines sometimes. It's coach talk. They also hyped up Montori Hughes a bunch. Heck Grigson also talked up Bates pretty good when they drafted him.

Good news for Rogers. I wonder what number he will change to since he cannot keep 3 in the regular season

what'd i say earlier....... Grigs is due for a curve ball switch up..........over due actually.  Irving's release could be nothing, or it could be to free up cap space and roster for............. a splash?

 Only guy that comes to mind that's been talked about is Mychal Kendricks

Opens up the door for Mcnary or Edwin Jackson

yeah i dont have a clue who it'd be to even guess.  Heck, we could be trading Tolzien or Morris even to someone plus picks for someone..... or we could be doing nothing.  Time will tell

They should waive Thorton. He's just injured way too much. Don't even waste that IR spot. But if Haeg is hurt Blythe is going to have to star at LG unless they keep Harrison.

How do you waste an ir spot?  There is no maximum

To be a backup. McNary is a decent rotational guy and can be used as a blitzer. Jackson is another Slyvestre: flashes but isn't ready to see any significant work. Morrison is the guy this opens the door for. He's starting until Moore is ready. Who knows if he'll get the job back though.

For now. I think the final number will be less by two maybe three.

I really hope you're right..like you said McNary is good for blitzing and rotation if needed..but i really think he should NOT start!! He's hit his ceiling, I'd rather see Morrison start!! Or even the other Jackson..please not McNary!

True, anything could happen.

[UKColt13]

Looks like Antonio Morrison is starting at least until Sio is back.

 

Unless Grigs makes a move for someone either off the waver wire or from a trade.

 

[Everyone]

Something to watch for

[MTC]

The only move that made me say "wow" was Nate Irving being released.

I really hope this was sarcasm because that kind of reaction over a guy like earl okine is phenomenally ridiculous.

We may take Milliner off of waivers like we did Mitchel, but he's injured and would revert to IR. He won't make that much of an impact this season.

I would not want to cut Tolzien over Morris, but I would certainly trade Tolzien and go with Morris as the back up.

i like your thinking

To all of the comments about 3 qbs and 4 TEs...remember there is less than a 1% chance that the current roster is the roster we head into week 1 with.

Still for a team in need of pass rush help he did play well this preseason. It could arguably be more beneficial to keep him and give him some chances against the ones in the regular season assuming we have no other pass rush than it would be to cut him

Who would we trade Tolzien to? Vikings were the only real choice and they already traded for a QB.

Ah, didn't notice he was injured, thanks.

Yep that comes next.  Some guys made the team right that probably won't see the season opener.

 

irving and Okine were the only surprises I saw.  I knew Morrison had a good pre-season I didn't realize it was test good.

I thought Ridley was a surprise.

Completely irrelevant to the post you quoted.

 

For the record I totally agree with you, I'd have preferred to keep him than cut him, but at the same time I'm also not entirely surprised he did get cut.

From what I'm seeing Monachino's scheme is going to have a lot of ILB blitzes, and McNary was very good at that in pre-season. He had at least 2 sacks that I saw and got good pressure.

 0 percent chance.

Trading either is not realistic.  I would not want to lose Morris because of his upside, but I don't think there is much chance of any team rostering him at this point, so maybe he could be put on the PS if we get into a roster crunch the next few days.  Some team might pick up Tolzien if cut.
