Yep. But they are slowly getting better. 

Keeping 11 DL is somewhat surprising BUT expect that to slim down come tmr assuming they scoop up a OL/LB that someone else cut. And they have some depth issues at HB

I just saw that the Jets cuts 3rd rounder Jachai Polite....I don't know anything about him, tho. Is he any good?

Niners cut a 25 year old former 1st RD OG (Garnett) and Jets cut a 3rd RD LB they drafted this year (Polite).

Thoughts
I think we will trade for a RB and a CB
Don't like keeping 3 QBs

Harris is somewhat of a surprise cut for me. I had also thought that Ringo had a decent shot, but Brown and Glasgow have crowded out the 3 tech spot pretty well - especially if Ringo got hurt.

I think someone should start a thread about available talent.

Teams keep a couple of players on their 53 that they know someone else wants, hoping for a trade.

Otherwise, it's a matter of your slot on the waiver claim.

Jake Campos was cut by Dallas. 6-7, 320lb kid from Iowa State. Was on PS last year. Don't think he will last long.

I put one out there

9 rookies, 3 undrafted are currently on the squad

Zac says Green is not an IR-return candidate. Feels like he'll be back before eight weeks

I was thinking earlier that I wonder how we stacked up against the rest of the league in terms of age. We were already one of the youngest teams in the league last year.

I have no problem with it, either.

Really don't see any cuts I hate. This would look very different under Marvin

Maybe a player or 2 different. But, I doubt drastically.

You guys act like everything Taylor does is revolutionary.

Davis cut is a bit of a surprise. So Williams and Anderson out for the year and Davis waived.

Never mind, I see he made the 53!

Pretty scary huh?

Driskell was put on IR for the entire year.

More like... feels like people were saying he might miss 0-2 games, and now it "feels like" he'll miss less than 8. Shut the guy down and let him heal the 8 weeks so he doesn't get re-hurt after coming back too early.

I didn't say anything was revolutionary but I could guarantee that Cody Core would still be here.  Dolegala would be gone, John Jerry would still be here.  

Phillips would be gone.  You're talking about the guy who held on to John Thronton forever, and started MJ over Hubbard last season

Phillips ranked as a really good CB by PFF during the preseason.

Who knows on the others.

Jerry looked done. I doubt they keep him last year. Heck - He was a free agent all year and they didn't sign him. Seemed to be a Turner special.

Dolegala? Keeping 3 QB's definitely takes a roster spot away. I guess we'll see if that guy turns into something. He won't play this year most likely. It's kind of like wasting a roster spot.

Core? Maybe. Maybe not.

Who knows how much Bengals Management controls roster moves too and how much is coaches.

 .....and probably Malik Jefferson, and the Davis kid they just drafted. It isn't revolutionary, but it's definitely a noticeable change, IMO.
