Storm Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Wow.....Matt Dodge just got cut! This is why: "Weatherford's net average was 9 yards higher than Dodge's" Since Dodge has no hangtime and constantly outkicks his coverage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightFire Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Who in the hell trades for a punter? The Raiders. This picture depicts why I think Weatherford ultimately wins which makes Rosencopter more expendable or trade bait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lughead Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 I know right especially after 6 tonight he's s freebie there is no way the Giants hold him on the team to trade him later. Would be a terrible wast of a roster spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedinBlue Posted September 3, 2011 Author Share Posted September 3, 2011 12 more cuts to go (13 if Dodge doesn't get traded). Here's some notes from Mike Garafolo" A few notes before I get to the updated running roster: --FB Henry Hynoski seems to be okay for now. It's still early, but it looks like he'll be good to go. --Indications are the feel-good story of LB Mark Herzlich will continue. It appears the cancer survivor will make the final roster. --If LB/DE Adrian Tracy clears waivers, expect him to land on the practice squad. Same with DE Justin Trattou. The team believes Tracy could develop into a pass rusher, and that ability did flash at times during camp. --No word yet on WR Devin Thomas, but indications are he'll likely make the team after an impressive preseason as a kick returner. We'll have to see if the bubble pops on WR Michael Clayton, who was very good as the "up" man on kick returns in front of Thomas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastershake Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Did DE Justin Trattou get cut? That kid was a beast in college for Florida, I wonder if he'll catch on as a 5th DE or potential OLB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allstarjim Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Did DE Justin Trattou get cut? That kid was a beast in college for Florida, I wonder if he'll catch on as a 5th DE or potential OLB. He did get cut, the speculation is that they are going to try and put him on the practice squad if he clears waivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
