Colts 53 Man Cut Transactions Thread

[EastStreet]

Some details on today and tomorrow....

Quote

 

Aug. 31

Prior to 4:00 p.m., New York time, clubs must reduce rosters to a maximum of 53 players on the Active/Inactive List.

 

Simultaneously with the cut-down to 53, clubs that have players in the categories of Active/Physically Unable to Perform or Active/Non-Football Injury or Illness must select one of the following options: place player on Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform or Reserve/NonFootball Injury or Illness, whichever is applicable; request waivers; terminate contract; trade contract; or continue to count the player on the Active List.

 

Sept. 1

Claiming period for players placed on waivers at the final roster reduction will expire at 12:00 noon, New York time.

 

Upon receipt of the Personnel Notice at approximately 1:00 p.m., New York time, clubs may establish a Practice Squad of 10 players (clubs participating in the International Player Development Program may sign one additional international player to a Practice Player Contract.) No club, including the player’s prior club, will be permitted to sign a player to a Practice Player Contract until all clubs have received simultaneous notification via the above Personnel Notice that such player’s prior NFL player contract has been terminated via the waiver system.

Haeg is way better IMO!

 

I like how Haeg beefed up to 297. A great size for a C/G. Haha!

Haeg has proved to be valuable as both  a guard or tackle with little drop off if any when he plays thats why they like him. Like a 2 for 1 deal.

I agree

   I was saying that none of the guys mentioned by @Fisticuffs111 Are Gs first

[Yoshinator]

My prediction, we'll pick up Christian Westerman (former Bengals G), that was released for our O-Line.

11th hour predictions.....

 

Munyer likely gets cut in favor of a waiver wire pick-up even if he makes the 53

 

It's Milton vs Collins at CB

 

Hentges is going to the PS

 

Both Ware and West will be cut IF one of Wilkins or Williams is healthy

 

If Dolegal somehow cuts cut by the Bengals then he's our man at QB - it was a coin toss between he and Kelly previously - as Ballard did with Banogu and Okereke, "Why not get both?" lol

Milton will stay. Too valuable on ST.

Do they need to be Gs? I think tackle/Center is more important. We saw what happened when Castonzo/Kelly were out.

They are retooling damn near every backup spot for OL Im sure we will be better with whoever the replacements are.

It's Dolegala...and the Bengals are probably keeping him.

It is always good you have a G backup so if you have injuries to you starters at C and T, you don’t throw an New signee in at G if an injury happens there

 

      Some coaches do not like to overload a player with more than they can handle

Haeg won't play center, and when called upon hes played guard fine! HAHA

Dangn't Ballard. This is the 2nd time in 3 years you've released a player before the season started. You can't miss on these guys that much! 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

LOL Houston getting rid of another oline man.

Hyde wont help them much

Glad KC nabbed him

Watson needs to demand a trade lol.

Agree! Although with Mudd now involved again he likes versatility. Which in some cases means you can carry 1 less Ol men on the roster.

      

    

 

[IndyScribe]

Uh, what are the Texans doing? They need Oline more than Carlos Hyde.

You're right, but Colts already have several backup guards in Haeg/Clark.

That is great in game day but not always good in practice

Trade him here. We'll give them a 3rd round pick like Seattle! 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Something has to give here with the colts CB group. Wonder who it is going to be.

He doesn’t really fit our system.

It's really only Collins/Milton

I won’t be surprised if it’s Tell and they try and sneak him into the PS.

Before anyone asks, no, the Colts should not trade for him.

He's actually a better pocket passer than people give him credit for. I think he'd do fantastic under Reich with this O-Line and receiving core. He's a lot like Luck was IMO.

Tell won't clear waivers.

I hope not. He won't clear waivers IMO.

Not sure about that. He looks fast but he is still so green.

There was always zero chance Dullin could stay. He will certainly need a year on a PS. Phillips was similar, he had too many draft picks ahead of him and high priced FA to stick. I loved both as well.

I think Tell makes it! Colts like him won't risk losing him. I think Collins is the odd man out, although I would rather it be Milton.

I really think they want another FS who can be a gunner on ST's.

I don’t think he is as far off as you think and he can always flip over in a pinch to safety. I see him over Collins from what we’ve seen and for his potential over Collins. Collins just looked bad this preseason

Lots of potential at CB. Some team will take a shot on him.

Do it Texans.

I'll give you Melvin Gordon for your 2nd round pick this year, next year, and two years from now!

Milton is ST's or nothing he has no value as a CB.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Wonder how good the chargers backup LT is.
