    Wow, I'm a little surprised that this is what we are fielding on D....

    I'm a little surprised we didn't try to get any better on D after cutting Lawson. I like the Albright kid and some of the fillers but you are telling me we are better without Lawson?

    Either Rex is a coaching genius or we are trying to sign Gilmore at the expense being mediocre at a bunch of spots on D.

    They liked Alexander better and Rex was very impressed with the Humber kid they picked up. Plus I think that Lawson's pec injury isn't/can't be fully healed yet.

        I think we're probably getting about the same on field performance from Alexander as Lawson, for a lot less money. And it may signal that Shaq will be back by midseason.
        Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

          Let me change "Humber" in my post above to "McCrary."

            Definitely not this.

              I had zero issues with any of the cuts.

              DL looks good, secondary looks good and the LB's are what they are. The LB corp will probably play better than last season, when we got little out of them. Preston Brown looks like the 2014 version and the new faces look like they know what they are doing.

                If you were counting on Manny Lawson to be a difference maker you were delusional. I have no problem giving a young guy the chance.
