Stoll is being used as a 6th OL and has 3 targets all year, and Calcaterra has no targets and is getting less than 10% of the snaps. Sure seems like Albert O is the most likely to be cut once the Eagles need to make room.

The offense is doing fine other than redzone but it is amazing how little production they get from 2nd TE and 3rd WR.

 

The Panthers have officially hit rock bottom

Never.  He's the new Genard Avery.

The Eagles just traded down from a 6th to a 7th in 2025 for Albert O. I believe Avery was a 4th and he didn't do anything here.

Wow.  Did he even play last year? I didn't realize he's still in teams rolodex.

I think there might have even been conditions on that for Albert O but never were revealed

Reich wants him for religious reasons lol

If there's a clear cut on this team for me, it's Calcaterra. Can't get on the field for 13 personnel. Got a good blocker. I'd rather throw to OZ or Julio. 

What other team is signing him to their roster?

I did some analysis last year around TE2 production around the league, and it's pretty low in general and especially low if you have a top 7 TE.

WR3 in this offense is essentially the 4th/5th target, so I see why the production is minimal there. You have AJ, Smith, Goedert, and probably Swift all ahead there.

Avery actually did more than Albert O has so far, and that's hard to believe given how little Avery actually did.    Yes, they gave up very little... but it seems like he was a luxury move and they have no interest in actually using him.  Has he even dressed once for the team?   Did we need a 4th TE that badly, and him specifically to just take up a roster spot and never contribute on the field?

That's very likely not far from the truth at all.

It's head scratching why he's still on the active roster. Albert O put out some pretty promising tape with the Broncos and while not an incredible blocker, brings a much more well rounded game to the table.

I think he may have been active for 1 game, but didn't play, other than that he hasn't done anything. I agree and thought it was weird they were carrying 4 TEs, and it got more strange when they were struggling to even get Goedert involved.

In any case keeping both of them seems like a complete waste. With the IR moves coming up & possibly Julio it seems destined to change

Listening and talking to people today and it seems like everyone is way more disappointed in this hear’s Phillies team than last year and I don’t get that at all. Last year’s team was way more magical and they were up 2-1 in the World Series. This year you saw cracks in the armor all season that you knew if you were being honest would bite them at some point.

Just look at the difference in how both teams played in the NLCS. Last year’s team was so much better. They crushed a far superior Padres team to this Dbacks team. This team struggled mightily to and lost to a Dbacks team that wasn’t that great. People I’ve been listening to are acting like the Phillies are some juggernaut that just played way down to the competition. I think people are getting caught up in all the vibes stuff and talked themselves into this being some team of destiny.

lets go!

They lost to an inferior team, which is proven by the fact they outscored the D-Backs by 9 runs over the 7 games.  They just choked in almost all of the clutch / close situations.  This is an epic collapse on the level of the Sixers losing to the Hawks in 2021.

Philly teams are the masters of choking in the clutch.

So, absent anyone else going on IR, we're going to have to make 3-4 cuts: Jurgens back from IR, Evans back from IR, Julio to the 53 and Watkins back from IR (though maybe he stays stashed on IR). I would stash Watkins, but that leaves 3 cuts. I'd have to think they keep all 7 corners on the team - Roby is best for the slot, and you can't risk losing Ringo. One of the tight ends gets cut -- I think it will be Albert O. Jurgens coming back gets you to 9 OL, but I think they carry all of them. I think we cut Street because he is more likely to get to the PS than Ojomo. But that still leaves one more. And I'm thinking...it's Penny or Patrick Johnson.
