Baker has been released and it sounds like he won't be the last veteran cut. Sounds like we are going full youth movement and I have to say I am a fan.
Chris Baker cut, more vets to come?

Baker was easily the worst looking player on the defensive line this preseason. I guess this means Glasgow will be the backup nose. We also might see Andrew Brown this week against the Bills.

Baker was not impressing as a backup over some of the younger guys,... So if you are getting the same or better from a younger cheaper option you keep the younger with upside. MJ spot might not be safe either if Brown gets back into action and can show what he has. Especially with the DTs playing decent we don't need MJ inside

Why not try him at RT?
Seriously though its a decent team move. I was rooting for him to turn around his career here, but he wasn't cutting it playing against 2s. I wonder if this actually allows MJ to move inside and play DT on more passing downs? I think they would have released him by now if they were planning to...

Saved 3 mil, gets us to 8 or so I think? Msybe they have a trick up their sleeve? It feels like they’re serious so hopefully they’re able to make something happen (hopefully along the line) that can really help solidify this team

Good stuff, another proper move. The Baker signing pushed Billings to be better and it worked. Glasgow is better than Chris Baker. Well done.

We also might see Andrew Brown this week against the Bills. I sure hope so. His college tape looked good. And reports said he was having a good camp before the injury. Wish Rod Taylor hadn't gotten hurt. Baker had a couple of good years for the Redskins. I guess sometimes players just lose "it," whatever "it" is.
Today I'm TEAM SEWELL. Tomorrow TEAM PITTS. Maybe TEAM CHASE. I can't decide, and glad I don't have to.

That would be great

Michael Johnson is a durable vet that is of the highest quality as a person in the community and locker rom. he can play 3 of the 4 Dline positions. I think his days as a starter have passed, but I'd hate to see him cut over a young never will be,

Don’t care how much he makes he’s a waste of space in the field.

MJ is safe I think unless we love both Brown and Tutupu.
