James has been good on specials bad in coverage

He likely will get another job quickly though.

The bad news for the Giants is he'll be eligible to play after 4 games...



Not entirely true. He does count as part of the 53 initially. After the rest of the players are waived then they can add a 54th.


I thought the way it works (if they don't flat out cut Hosley) is that the Giants name their 53 players PLUS get a roster exemption for which they can use on the suspended Hosley.
Robie that isn't correct  
DavidinBMNY : 8/26/2014 10:21 am : link
The suspended list is different then putting someone on short term IR. In order to go onto short term IR you have to be one of the 53. Regular IR can occur anytime and the Suspended list doesn't count as he is automatically suspended and won't be on the roster. They get you at the end of the suspension not before because you have to either cut him or free up a roster spot.

Hosley  
old man : 8/26/2014 10:22 am : link
must have the photos on someone in the org.
On a good day he will make 1 in 3 plays; unfortunately he plays at about 1 in 5.
Hope 1 or 2 of these guys don't get calls and go to PS.

He made some nice plays the first few games. I guess he didnt do enough on specials.

I thought there would probably be an OL cut or two. His was the first name that came to mind
I was hoping Brandon McManus would stick

The Giants today made 15 transactions to reach the NFL roster limit of 75 players in advance of the 4 p.m. deadline.

Two players were placed on injured reserve: safety Cooper Taylor, who injured the sesamoid bone in his left foot in Indianapolis on Aug. 16, and wide receiver Marcus Harris, who has a hip injury.

Two players were waived/injured: linebacker Justin Anderson (hamstring) and defensive end Emmanuel Dieke (knee).

Eleven players were waived: cornerbacks Charles James and Ross Weaver; safeties C.J. Barnett and Kyle Sebetic; linebacker Spencer Adkins; wide receiver Travis Harvey; tight ends Xavier Grimble and Jerome Cunningham; guard John Sullen; defensive tackle Everett Dawkins; and kicker Brandon McManus.
Here is the official list

Adkins cut before Herz  
Mason : 8/26/2014 11:56 am : link
It's not even about football now with him. He's just a PR story. There's not a single soul that can convince you Herz had a better preseason than Adkins. And he wasn't that special on STs either. This is like the 3rd preseason where a LBer who showcased more than him was cut. That's a owner call but somehow how management and the coaching stff get stuck with the bill.
And 21 more have to be cut in less than a week

If Charles James is a fast smurf, rather than a slow smurf  
Bob in Newburgh : 8/26/2014 12:03 pm : link
The Jets CB situation has gotten weird with the Dmitri Patterson mystery coupled with Milliner's high ankle sprain.

If they think that James has potential at nickel, they might well kick the tires. Although they would prefer to keep Wilson at nickel, they may not have that luxury.

Fuck what's annoying to you, these guys are losing their jobs. If you want a list wait until after the deadline when the full list will be released.
Any more cuts to go today?

I though Adkins and James would make it to the final cut, but I didn't think either would make the team.

Herzlich is not a good NFL linebacker at this point in his career, period.

Looks like 15 moves to me, so I think that is it unless they grab somebody else's cut.

That's BS..He's a 5th/6th depth LB who is terrific on specials

Assuming that the Giants keep 6 CBs and that  
Bobby Epps : 8/26/2014 12:26 pm : link
Prince, DRC, McBride, Thurmond and Bowman make the team, it leaves Bennett Jackson, Chandler Fenner and Hosley competing for the 6th spot.

With Hosley suspended for the first 4 games, it means that the competition for now is between Fenner and Jackson. Fenner and Jackson are about the same size and about the same quickness in 10 yds. but Jackson is faster in the 40, has more agility and is more shifty and explosive. Also IMO Jackson did a good job in the Jets game as the gunner on punt coverage.

It will be interesting to see how both play on Thursday.

To try to pick up Olineman...
well see soon
Some of these cuts are odd  
old man : 8/26/2014 1:10 pm : link
and with 20+ more to happen competition must be really close at certain positions, waiting for game 5 to make final evaluations.
I would have thought about 20+ would have been made and some quick signings of 3-4 guys from other teams would have happened.
Guess what we have been seeing is what we will see this season.

I could have sworn that you had to have your 53 before you could replace a person due to injury or suspension. My bad if I was wrong.
