    The cuts to 75 should be uneventful. Most of the cuts are obvious and are guys that were never really in the mix to make the team. Occasionally a vet will get cut early to give him a chance to latch onto another team, but I don't think that's an issue here this season.

    Zumwalt would surprise me, I read someone's projection, and had him as a cut.

    It was me. I wondered if anyone would notice that. :lolol: I think he's a strong candidate for an injury waiver.

    Just an FYI, Ed Bouchette tweeted a little bit ago that the steelers will not be cutting anyone today. And will do so Tuesday morning.

    lol, I couldn't remember who that was. I would think he makes it to the next round though.

    I knew I'd be labeled a crack addict for that, but consider it food for thought.

    Here is something I've been thinking about. They must have been pretty sure of who was gonna make the cut before the Eagles game right? Because they played the starters for so long. I was thinking that with such a horrible performance from them they really hurt the guys that are at least trying to get some good stuff on tape. Do you think Tomlin's mind was made up even last week on this first wave?

    Possible. I read (maybe also from you :lolol:) that sometimes guys will get cut early in an attempt to sneak them past waivers because teams are less likely to grab someone so soon.
