njsmalls Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 As for cutting Petitgout... I am very surprised and disappointed. I know Luke's had some problems, but he is a damn good LT. How will we replace him? I won't miss Arrington, and Emmons just sucks so good riddance to him. His broken leg, chronic back problems. He did have a good year this year, but he had a bad year last year...he's only getting older. I get the feeling O'Hara is next. I mean, that's the first guy on the O-Line a lot of us was thinking would get cut. We need an O-Line that can PUSH guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll give Reese the benefit of the doubt and believe that he has someone better in his grasp. If not..... well, I don't know. I just hope he does.

*SDMF* Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Bad move cutting Arrington and Luke. I know everyone was on his ass a year ago but he stepped up this year. Untill hegot hurt he was THE left tacklee in the NFC. And not keeping Arrington is just stupid. Looks like the 'First Black GM' is gonna be the last black GM if he keeps up this stupidity.

You're kidding right? Arrington is an injury machine. Great move on Reese's part getting rid of EA's fuckup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishgutmartyr Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 It's a brilliant move, politically. You now have Strahan and Toomer from the old guard. Strahan probably isn't going anywhere, I don't think, and maybe Toomer stays. But Tiki is gone with his mouth, and Petitgout wasn't exactly a team guy. Then again, maybe you move Strahan for draft choices, while he still has some value. At any rate, it's all on Coughlin's dime. The fans expect him to fail next year as it is, and they are going to primarily blame him anyway. So you get to clean house of the old guys, clear cap space, and if it doesn't work, you get to blame the unpopular coach. Pretty fucking evil, but pretty smart, too...

Then you just made the owner's day, because then they won't have to fire dad's guy...and I'm sure Reese won't be shy about saying how well they work together.

boohyah Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 This is awful bizarre timimg IMO. Emmons, no loss. But Arrington? And why dump Luke so soon unless they are absolutely sure they can replace him, they could have waited a little while longer to do that. It sends a real strong message to the rest of the team, but it's very fucking heartless for Arrington and Luke, both of them didn't get hurt for fun. If this team doesn't draft a linebacker in the first round this year I'll be pissed. Even with these cuts we still don't have major cap room for some of the free agents listed here.

so-cal dub Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 I'm wondering if there is more to Luke's injury than though or at least mentioned. You dont just drop a LT... and Whitfield retiring. They better have a trick up their sleeve, becuase if not Eli is really gonna look like shit.

Virginia Giant Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 I'm with most of you guys on this. I don't understand cutting Luke, as of now Guy Whimper is our LT? Unless Reese has something huge in the winds or Guy has sudenly become Orlando Pace Jr, I don't like this. LaVar, man I wanted so much for him to produce, but his legs are too battered to ever be productive again. Emmons, eh, other than losing 2 LB's this isn't a big deal. I think this really kinda ensures either Briggs or Thomas are on their way here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
