That, or you end up drafting their replacement. The alternative is to keep the player and use your 1st Round pick to upgrade another position of need.
This strategy has destroyed a great roster.
Zeitler would be replaced with Westerman just like Smith was replaced by CO.
Ced O was a replacement for Smith only in that he took up a roster spot.
Ced O didn't, couldn't, wouldn't block in either passing or running game and was more akin to replacing a man with a baby.
The team is going to have to evaluate better and also be willing to cut loose of a bust a little more quickly and bring in a replacement.
