(Merged) June 1st Cuts.

All this talk about Gardiner's future makes me wonder who will we be cutting after June 1st.

Gardiner would save us 2.7 million, which I think is the #1 reason for why we should cut him. If Michael Barrow's knee doesn't progress, he would be another cut, which would save us an additional 2.1 million. Finally, both Cory Raymer and Chad Morton could be on their way out - each saving us about a million.

The total for these four cuts would be around 7 million, which would leave us with 8 million or so in cap space for this season.

That money could be used to resign Santana Moss (to a reasonable contract - please God, just this once, lets not overpay for a guy); our rookies; and possibly fill holes at DE and WR with other June cuts.

Good Call!

Crap - I just heard we won't cut Gardiner.

That blows. I think he is so inconsistent and is taking time away from younger guys who can catch over 50% of the balls that hit them in the hands.

wonder if the lions would trade haz hakim to the skins straight up for gardner?

personally i think that morton,john hall,mccants,barrow,and hasselback are all gone.
hall is the only one 50/50!

Where did you hear that? I hope it's true. Were going to need him. Unfortunatley he's are only big WR. :mad:

I think Sellers stays. He is a special team stand out, and Gibbs knows we need help there.
Before the draft, I'd agree with you, but it seems to me that we just drafted not one, but two replacements for Sellers......maybe one too many penalties for coach Joe?

Well, I think they resigned Sellers for a couple more years ( i could be wrong). Maybe Gibbs wants to expand his role this year?

So if Gardner stays will he be # 2 as of now? I dont think moss is any more reliable. To me Thrash is our best receiver, and then Jacobs.

I heard on Sports Talk 980 that we are planning on keeping Gardiner.
