September 5, 20205 yr They can find any JAG on the street who can play to Douglas or Jones’ ability. They won’t be missed.

September 5, 20205 yr My biggest issue with this time of year is criticizing teams for missing on players while not also praising them for hitting on UDFAs. That's just part of the process. A LOT of high draft picks are getting cut today; it doesn't mean every GM is incompetent.

I'd have drafted Quincy Wilson myself, but he hasn't done much either. I also liked Cordrea Tankersley, who went 2 picks before Rasul Douglas -- and I'm pretty sure he's on the street now, as is Teez Tabor who a lot of guys in here liked. It just hasn't turned out to be that CB-rich draft. Turns out the guy I remember wanting, Reuben Foster, would have been just as bad. That draft rests solely on Barnett turning in a double digit sack year now.

More concerned last year the eagles picked thorson and miller who wound up being just active on game day 0 times. Both were wasted picks on a QB most people didn’t like and miller who was frankly over drafted. Add on dillard and JJAW have been underwhelming so far in their careers (not that it’s over). That draft besides sanders isn’t looking great at the moment.

September 5, 20205 yr Reminder that Casey Toohill is an elite athlete. That includes LB instead of EDGE, but his EDGE SPARQ % is 94% too.

I know don and I both thought that would be the pick for about a month prior if he was still on the board.

September 5, 20205 yr The team will likely put some guys on short-term IR, so it's conceivable that Ostman, Miller, even Douglas/Jones could be re-added to the 53 tomorrow afternoon.

Actually think someone would claim douglas and possibly jones. Douglas in particular is an ok backup who’s had some starting experience.

September 5, 20205 yr 5 minutes ago, NCiggles said: I guess Avery is making the team if Ostman is gone. Probably simply because we gave up a 2021 4th. Otherwise if it were just about football he’d likely be gone. I’m guessing Avery goes on IR and they bring back ostman or sign Glenn with the spot
September 5, 20205 yr Just now, NCiggles said: I guess Avery is making the team if Ostman is gone. Could be an IR stash, but I bet he’s gone too. Just roll with Barnett, Graham, Sweat, Curry and Toohill.
September 5, 20205 yr I just got the notification that Sidney Jones is being released. Not a big shock, he never lived up to his billing from when we drafted him.
