Who should I cut?!

By jhartshorn

I have 59 and need to cut 6 by tomorrow evening.
I've cut 3 weaker ones already (Camp, Perez & Hamilton).
I must cut therefore another 3. Who would you guys recommend?

I know I have loads of RB & WR so that seems to be the obvious place, but my weakest are still decent....if so which of them would you cut?

Or should I stick with cutting the weaker players like Johnson (SS), Jenkins (RDE) & Rodriguez (SLB), knowing that the better RB & WR's which I have spare would work well in trades over coming weeks??

Your thoughts would be much appreciated

I've also cut Pool & Peterson (my 6th/7th picks), who don't look too great.

So 1 name needed:

That's part of being the GM you have to make tough decision. If you ever get a chance to watch NFL hard Knocks, you'll get a chance to see how hard it is in real life. The Texans cut a CB who the coach loved but the GM wanted someone taller. Towards the end of the year they brought him back and he helped improve the special teams.

Cut some of those kickers and punters and sign someone defensive backs and linebackers.

The Browns were real smooth about 2 years ago.

Before Cuts, they Traded a guy. He was going to be cut anyways, but we got a 7th Rounder out of him.

Not that the 7th became anything, but at least in the NFL there is that chance a 7th Rounder can contribute. I don't hear that much on MFN.

Still, your best bet... if you have another day to work it, might be to try to Trade some one.

Ah yes just seen that I can go through pre season with all 59 then cut later.
Thanks for pointing that out

Take this with a grain of salt, because I'm in 65 too, but I'd cut K Bott for sure. No bonus unlike the others.
