I believe it’s difficult as us being fans to really know. The teams get to speak to these guys hands on and there are so many different factors that can come into play. We only see the top of the iceberg (Sunday’s performance) when the team gets a full week with their players.
For me, you have to be REALLY bad to be given up on early.
Preston Brown is a good example I think. At face value he was one of the better perhaps the best LB on the team yet the team let him go. There are some factors there we probably don’t know about as fans.
Again, we only see the Sunday product, we don’t see how they get there and that’s important to making those decisions. In my own career someone might perform great at showtime, but is a detriment to the team the rest of the week, or vice versa.
