Obviously this is part of the strategy when slimming down to 53. If you have two on the bubble and there is one you feel will not clear waivers, you take him, allowing you to place the other on the PS.

Who are this years potential cuts most likely to be claimed?

Ivey?
Haynes?
White?
Cabledue?
Martinez?
Richman?

I heard this morning that just under 1200 players will be released by tomorrow afternoon. Dayum

I don't think any of them would be claimed. Other teams might offer 1 or 2 of them PS places if the players fancied their chances with another team. Of the players listed Haynes would be the most likely to be poached based purely on his Draft status. Cabledue would be the player most likely to make a 53-man roster in 2026.

Fans generally have an inflated opinion on their own roster cuts. The other 31 teams are also doing these calculations about their own players being released. I'm not real worried we'll lose a "critical" piece. If a player is that important he won't be released. 🤷‍♂️

I just don't find it a big deal because it LITERALLY happens every year.
I hear ya. I was just passing on what I heard on 710 this morning on the way to work. Oh, the horror.

Damn dude, need a snickers bar or something? I'm AWARE that it happens LITERALLY every season.
If you're trying to be an ass, you're succeeding. Congrats

106x1200=127,000+/- players over the course of the NFL. That's at least 12 swimming pools full of watermelons worth of people!

Ivey possibly. I think they are working the phones to trade MVS but would keep him otherwise, especially if Bobo is hurt

I watched Dan Viens last night and he said only 2% of all players cut get picked up by other teams. Not sure of his source but that actually sounds very accurate.
