why was britton cut?

I'm guessing Ola was better

 

[Raskolnikov]

Cuts are starting to hurt.

Britton, C.J.Wilson, Chris Williams some of the guys I feel.

Brad Biggs ‏@BradBiggs 6m

Little surprised by release of LB Jerry Franklin by #Bears as he was solid in special teams role last season, had good summer.

Brad Biggs ‏@BradBiggs 6m

Release of Franklin means 8 of top 10 players from last season in terms of special teams snaps are now off #Bears roster.

 

[Mitchapalooza]

Emery is sabotaging our STs.

 

[Raskolnikov]

7 left!! Plus potentially an extra S and KR spot .

Someone should tell Biggs that ST sucked last year so turnover might not be bad.

I'm guessing that the last seven cuts will be one running back (Perry), one wide receiver (Bellamy), three d-linemen (Dunn, Robertson and Washington or Lane), one corner (Louis-Jean or Hurst) and one safety (M.D. Jennings).

 

[bears26]

Yes, I did not want him on the roster

Peggy - #Bears release CB Kelvin Hayden
1:39pm - 30 Aug 14

#Bears release CB Kelvin Hayden

Finally!! something to cheer about!! hometown boy, but he never recovered his speed after the injury that landed him here. Just a waste of 3 years from a bears perspective, I wish he would have come the year earlier when he was still a good player but he was afraid of competing with Jennings.

#Bears release CB Kelvin Hayden

Good move. Hes just not that good.

 

[WCL]

This prediction was proven wrong within 30 seconds of when I posted it.

I'm glad we keep Louis-Jean and Hurst. I just didn't think they would cut Hayden.

I'm gonna update my roster post.

 

[KittiesKorner]

Delmonte hurst looked bad last game

 

[JoJoBoxer]

why was britton cut?

Probably to not pay him the full year salary. Might be signed after week 1.
