Not sure why he is riding the pine there but I liked his play here. To me it was just a questionable cut. But whatever it isn’t the end of the world.
Your perspective:
Ron Rivera cut a quality young corner on a team-friendly rookie contract. Y?????? It makes zero sense.

Thinking outside the box:

A. Moreland was not that good
B. Moreland regressed in training camp and was constantly getting beat.
C. Ron Rivera got mad because Moreland banged his side piece.
D. Ron Rivera played with Moreland's father - who was a POS - and cutting Moreland was the result of a decades long vendetta against the Moreland family. Rivera is all about the long-con.

Bingo !! We have a Winner !! That move set this team back years ! Without a QB you are the WFT…

Good points. I'd say 2 things though:

-with how awfully our secondary has been playing, I wouldn't put too much faith into our coaching staff's ability to accurately evaluate DBs

-with how awfully disappointing our secondary has been playing as a whole, it's not crazy to think something's off in the DB locker room and/or with the DB coach. So with that setting in mind, option B, Moreland regressing significantly in TC, is not unlikely at all.

Yep, it sounds like the opening paragraph of one of those nfl.com 'what if' draft articles!

I forgot to mention option E: Our other young corners played at his level or close to his level in training camp and they have the added bonus of playing special teams whereas Moreland doesn't.

Honestly think that played a factor.

Oh definitely. Moreland being cut had a lot to do with what they thought of St Juste, Darryl Roberts, as McTyer to a certain extent.
It's just that it was a questionable decisions in the moment... And with how bad this DB squad has been so far, it sure is easy to question it now.

Lol. Listen you saw the guy play for two years also. Did you not think he was getting better? My perspective is RR thought that our defense was so stout he wasn’t necessary and kept some others. St Juste, Jackson also. I can’t blame him if that was the thought process. Just imo would have cut someone else. Not the end of the world.
