really wish reese hadn't cut that quarles guy

for Kuhn. And how about how he makes Coughlin hold onto Robinson just to save face so his drafts don't look so bad? Really wish Reese would just let Coughlin sign anybody off another team's scrapheap so we could get rid of that bum Robinson and be better at TE.
Well....

I know it's crazy, but just follow me here for a moment.

Maybe...just maybe...Reese has made these decisions after receiving Tom Coughlin's input on what he thinks of the players after seeing them perform, or lack thereof on the field the last several weeks.

Unconventional way to run things, I know...

There is no saving face in cuts

Maybe a first or second round pick may get a little more time to showcase skills they clearly had to have shown in college but other picks are cut cause they are not as talented as the guys ahead of them.

Rarely, though it can happen, a guy gets cut and makes it on another team. It could be because the other team has a better suited system or he get more motivated with the cut or whatever.

Bottom line, how many cuts during the Coughlin era have we truly regretted? Kuhn can play. Quarles can't just yet and we can't afford a bad season.
I would assume

the coaching staff has the final say about their 53 man roster before the GM. Also this really deserved a thread.
Uh guys?

I believe the OP was being a bit sarcastic.
meaningless player  
Chip : 8/31/2014 10:16 pm : link
how many of these guys work out after being cut less than 1%would be my guess.
Perfect

you should watch football and leave it at that. Your eye for talent would have you taking home women larger than kelcy quarles...Go to bed
brich, while we are on the subject...

on Reese than me but in fairness this was not his call. Coughlin, Fewell and ACs all in on this decision. Think they see Kuhn as a fill in for Hankins as a space eater who can hold the point of attack if not much else.
Something else to factor in - hindsight

At the time of the waiver, there was a substantial possibility that Quarles would remain in the organization on the PS.

If you absolutely knew that waiving him meant losing him, maybe then you cut Kuhn and keep Quarles.

I assume that no matter what their relative value as prospects, Kuhn is more NFL ready than Quarles.

congrats

People lose focus that 53 players on a football roster just isn't very many. There are hundreds of the 75-53 cuts who can play in the info but there just isn't room. The Pats made room for Quarles. Probably had their eyes on him during the scouting process and draft.

Someone posted an interview with quarrels here, he sounded like a decent guy. Hope he sticks in the league.
Quarles  
Watloo1 : 9/1/2014 11:06 am : link
They will regret in the future that they cut this guy. To make it worse the Pats signed him.

I like Kuhn [ as my posting history attests ] and I have been a little disappointed that he didn't do anything outstanding in the preseason, but some BBI experts seem to have been spending more time with their nose in the stats column than watching games, because either they haven't seen this -- "a space eater who can hold the point of attack if not much else" -- or else they consider that equal to stinking up the place. Team!
