Stone I would have put into that bucket too if not for his December performance. Golden may think there's something there worth keeping him around for.
Cappa and Hubbard have tenure in Cincy, especially Hubbard.
I can see them waiting on one/both until after at least the meat of FA goes through and they can get a replacement.
We don't want another situation where they see Reader gone and decide to scramble for what they think is best option to replace in Rankins.
They should bring someone on first then cut the incumbent.
Cool and I agree on bringing in someone first being the safest way to go about all this. With Stone we do need a FS if the coaches do not
think Tycen Anderson can be one. I have heard others talking about cutting Volson as well as Cappa which just sounds too over the top for
me as Volson is still on his cheap rookie contract and could be depth, all be it, not the best depth. I like Ford better now which is wild.
