Cut

A lineman is on his way out, also there are a couple of guys that are on the bubble. OSO stick to your principles though.

I agree that OSO is probably talking about Wade but also think that Bruener could be an "on the bubble" guy.

Nothing against him really, more of a numbers deal than anything else...he is winding his career down, we are now TE heavy for a change apparently, being a dual threat is not his stength and he is one of the few guys that we would save big cap money on (approx. $1M) with a move.

And, although the odds are against it IMO, there is some chance that TJ might be "on the bubble" also, not for cap reasons but to continue to demonstrate that draft position and contract issues do not trump performance (or lack thereof) with the new regime. I hope he gets the message and has a good-great camp so that this is no longer a possibility.

GO TEXANS!!! :redtowel:

Buchanon is playing for just $800k--that hardly qualifies as a bloated contract.

Bruener isn't it IMO as his contract is not bloated either ($1 mil cap hit) and he is not just a blocking TE but one of the best blocking TE's in the NFL.

Weigart, Wong, Wade, Salaam, Pane, Laverne, Luchey(Yes I'm looking at the roster),Breuner, Cowart, Greenwood, Hape, Kalu....I think we will have a better idea of how this regime thinks AFTER some cuts are made. We simply don't know where they think we're deep and and/or who may be better off somewhere else... I forgot McKinney and probably several others...we also don't now, with any certainty, who performed better than whom in the coaches eyes. It has certainly seemed that this regime has found 4talent where we thought we had none(OL, QB, DB). I am very interested in who this player will be.

Wong will be cut. If he is finally goiong to come of the injured list they can clear his contract.

Did you know Wong is married to AC Slater's sister? (im not joking BTW)
yes I did and I've seen AC at the YMCA working out while he was in town to visit Wong and his sister. Nice guy but little cocky.

my guesses are: Todd Wade, Seth Payne & Morlon Greenwood.

I think there may be more released in the next few weeks too...

Remember the Michael Bennett thread where it was "leaked out" that we were getting Michael Pittman. That never happened, and I'm not saying you guys aren't credible, but I'm not believing anything until it actually happens. I do believe someone will get cut who has a pretty big contract though wheter it's tomorrow or right before TC.

I am saying that there may have been more than one person cut that has yet to be reported, but I will not say much past that. You may PM me if you wish to talk about it past that I really have no further info on the subject.

I wasn't trying to get any more information than that--I can wait and I wouldn't encourage anyone to betray someone's trust.

Or how about when it leaked out that Grey was going to be our D coordinator that following Monday and Mike Martz was going to be our OC.

If Payne or Wong get cut that would be a swift kick in the ..... Didn't we just re-sign those guys to 4 year deals last year?

Back to the original intent. I know this isn't exactly going out on a limb, but my guess is Todd Wade. He doesn't fit the system, has some injury concerns, and is overpaid to boot.

As much as I would like to see Wade cut I believe we take a bigger cap hit this year to cut him versus keeping him.

Payne signed a 4 year deal thru 2008--Wong signed a 5 year deal thru 2009.

JMO--Payne is not on the chopping block. Wong unlikely.
