Let's see if we can figure out who the next 22 cuts are.

I'll start with the easy cuts...

DT Richard Ash

WR Casey Closs

G Will Corbin

S Matt Daniels

LDE Ikponmwosa Igbinosun

RB Storm Johnson

WR Erik Lora

QB Stephen Morris

G Chris Reed

LB Todd Thomas

CB Peyton Thompson

That's 11 players. We know they'll release one of their two kickers...

K Josh Scobee

K Jason Meyers

So that's 12 players, but there's still another 10 to go.

Next up I'll list the players that I feel are safe and have secured a roster spot this preseason...

OLB Thurston Armbrister

DT Michael Bennett

MLB Jeremiah George

RB Corey Grant

TE Nic Jacobs

WR Bryan Walters

G Tyler Shatley

DE Chris Smith

Now I'll list all the remaining bubble players to choose from...

DE Andre Branch (he should only be out a month with the MCL, so they'd have to keep him on the active roster)

DE Cap Capi

S Josh Evans

CB Jeremy Harris

DT Ziggy Hood

TE Ben Koyack

S Craig Loston

OLB John Lotulelei

CB Nick Marshall

OT Austin Pasztor

RB Bernard Pierce

OLB LaRoy Reynolds

CB Rashaad Reynolds

WR Neal Sterling

WR Tony Washington

OT Sam Young

That's 16 names, but they can only keep 6. What 10 players do you cut?

I'm thinking Evans, Koyack, Sterling, Washington and Young for starters, but that leaves five more to cut.

With Evans and Young cut they'll need to keep Loston and Pasztor for depth.


Among the three CBs in Rashaad Reynolds, Nick Marshall and Jeremey Harris, I'm cutting two of them although I don't know yet which two. That leaves 3 more to cut with the following names to choose from...


DE Andre Branch

DE Cap Capi

DT Ziggy Hood

LB John Lotulelei

RB Bernard Pierce

LB LaRoy Reynolds

3 of these 6 have to go.

They probably want a 6th LB, so I need to cut either LaRoy Reynolds or John Lotulelei. I'm leaning towards cutting Lotulelei, although he was making some impressive tackles this preseason and I'm still deciding. But one of the two is cut so that leaves two more.

I'd like to keep Pierce as a 5th RB as he's the only other power back aside from Gerhart.

This means the last two to cut are on the DL between Branch, Capi and Hood. At LEO they still have Clemons, Chris Smith and Ryan Davis, but at DT behind Marks they only have Bennett along with Alualu and Odrick able to move over to the spot if needed. This is too tough for me to call at present.

At any rate, these are my thoughts. Let me know what 22 players you cut, or if you agree with my first 12, what remaining 10 players do you cut?
