The truth about free agency

"Yes it does. Players are not cut if they are earning their pay."

Sorry, you seemed to be saying that players never get cut if they're earning their pay, so I just provided you with a slew of examples to disprove that statement. Do either of you guys have stats to back up this notion that the "overwhelming majority" of cuts are specifically due to underperforming the contract? Not the various reasons I listed?

And no, a player being cut for salary cap purposes doesn't prove that player is overpaid. There's a lot to consider when making a trade. Namely, is the player/agent even open to being traded? Perhaps other teams don't like the structure or length of the contract. 

You are making claims that you can't possibly prove. 

It's funny because in other arguments Fred will talk about how the Bengals do sign free agents like Nate Clements and Dewayne Clemons and that was the catalyst for some of our success early in the Dalton era.
