They save 1m by cutting so not an issue.

It is not complete, seeing that the Bears cut 5 two weeks ago, 5 last week and 3 more today (13) and there are 9 players on the Bears list while others have around 4 cuts total.

It's actually almost a wash because he leaves $275k in dead money and the next guy to come up to the 53 is $895k, but the basic idea that it's not an issue is right.

Phins cut Sony Michel. They're loaded at RB.

Michel is a giant pile of garbage. He hasn't been the same since his rookie year.

Considering the amount of times Poles had a clear opening to sign a veteran, established wide receiver and didn't, I think it's got to be a part of his strategy at this point to try these young guys out. I don't think he wants to develop any one on their way out. And guys like Slayton, Preston, Laviska are all pretty good young prospects in a certain context, but not immensely separating themselves from the group of wide receivers the Bears currently have. Why Poles went and got N'Keal Harry over one of those other guys? Not sure. But think he wants to hold on to his picks and money and keep the WR core as is.
I've been eyeballing all offseason what stable presence they might bring to the WR roster, but think we're pretty much set and going to find out what this crew of guys are made of

49ers cut Dohnovan West. This is a guy many on here had us taking with a mid-late round pick in mocks but went undrafted anyway.

We don't need wide receivers, we need both OL and DL help.

My guess is that he wants to establish the run and, with that, the play action. A WR like Harry is one of the best blockers at WR, adding good blocking if and when he is on the field.

I completely agree. We ain’t winning the Súper bowl this year anyway. So why trade for anyone. Goal this year is to just get better and better each game. There will be hiccups. But pick up again and get better.

I think they're rolling with
Mooney
Pringle
Jones
ESB
Pettis
Harry (moved to IR)
Once they move Harry to IR; they're signing back Coulter/Sharpe or a FA cut by another team until Harry returns in Oct ish

I don't see how my man Dieter makes the cut. Probably back on our PS but he looked good this pre. I could see a team that really needs depth at center taking a flyer on him for peanuts. Fortunately, they're all already trying to keep their own 53 so much more likely he's back.

I think he picked N’keal Harry because of his blocking ability. It seems the only factor that differentiates him from the herd.

Crazy to see teams move off and trade/cut 2nd and 3rd round picks from just a year or so ago....
Many on here were interested in Shenault, Mims (who is being tossed around as a trade option) and Lynn Bowden. I didnt want to draft him, but I think Bowden is certainly worth a waiver claim. Though I want to wait and see who else becomes available first.
