These two are still here. The questions I have for you all is, do they get cut prior to the start of free agency? Do they get cut at all? If so, when? Do you keep one over the other, do you keep both?
Basically, I am asking what are your thoughts on these two, and what do you think actually happens?
My thoughts? Keeping Glenn would almost be unforgiveable. I won't go into a lot of the reasons, as they've been discussed ad nauseam. But simply put, this guy has no business playing here next year.
And Dre? He's a clear choice for a cap casualty as I've ever seen. The guy hasn't played a full season in 5 years. Has never started 16 games. The last year (2017) he even played enough to qualify for a PFF rank he ranked #92. He's been overpaid, he's injury prone, he's aging, he has no long term future here and he can be cut without much dead money. Translation = See ya later!
Here's the tale of the tape on these two:
Cordy Glenn
Age - 30
Cap Savings - 9.5 mil
Dead Money - 0
Notes - Faked injury, almost fought coach, screamed at Taylor, screamed "just trade me", missed 10 games, never played a full season here, kinda sucks...
Dre Kirkpatrick
Age - 30
Cap Savings - 9.85 mil
Dead Money - 1.4 mil
Notes - See above...makes almost double what he should, injury prone, 1 INT in last 3 years, not good, huge douchebag...
So what do you think JN? Any chance we add this 19.35 mil to our FA budget and cut bait early? I really hope so, but I can't understand why it hasn't already happened. I'm getting nervous we hold on to both for awhile, to avoid spending in FA. I sure hope I'm wrong!!!!
As you have probably already heard me say, I would either cut them or even better look for some mid round picks for these
guys. No way Glenn should be back with his attitude and his soft run blocking with Jonah coming back and us needing to free
up some dough before FA. We can bring in a true Guard like Thuney, Glasgow, Scherff or Fieler that would be much better.
Kirkpatrick is a bad tackler on top of what you say here.
We should look to re-sign Billings and Dennard with these guy's salaries.
