Cut/Released: Todd Gurley and Clay Matthews

[Say Hey Kid]

The Rams did this to themselves. They need a President/GM who can balance the checkbook/salary cap.

Was surprised to read that Matthews had 8 sacks last year. Good productivity although past his prime.

TG3 in Seattle?
You think Pete Carroll can whip him into game shape?

Head scratcher for me. The system that McVay implemented for him was to make him last longer.

I don’t think they knew he would develop arthritis that early, must’ve taken aback when he got it.

Was this system in place from Day One? Or was it put in place after he nearly won MVP and was an absolute workhorse, cause often times its too little too late.

Yep , im all for anyone who wants to holdout , freaking brutal bizz the NFL is.
Dallas might find out with Elliott.

This is why I had 0 problems with what Bell did. Too often teams run these guys in the ground during their rookie deals/low salary years and when its time for pay day they get zilch or aren't rewarded properly. Gurley had a high paying deal for what, 2 years? Now he'll never pass 10 million in salary again.

Sounds like Pete loves the guy, I'm sure he'd be willing to give it a shot.

 

[Big Poppa Puck]

No doubt. I'm a Vikings fan and I think a Dalvin Cook extension is inevitable based on everything they've said about his importance and how they've built the team. A big extension is a concern for any RB and in his case he has had some type of injury issue in all three seasons so far. Great player when he's on the field but it's far too risky.

Makes you appreciate Peterson (and Frank Gore) even more both going (somewhat) strong at their ages. Sucks Peterson lost 2 years to suspension and injury.

Might have to cheer for the Falcons next year along with the Rams. Gurley my favorite player in the league right now along with Lamar.
