There were earler reports that Clutts was released (or would be) and that several teams were interested in him. Hence the trade #texans

I kinda like McManis, but Clutts is a decent add for this team given the need at FB. Not sure anyone ever thought James Casey was going to be the fulltime guy there blowing up holes... he's too valuable moving all over the field.

Clutts can be that backup long snapper too now that Dreesen is gone I suppose.

I agree, who else can longsnap?

Jon Weeks is still on the roster, right? What about Casey and/or Daniels?

I expect probably all these guys to be given PS offers.

Cut 'em early and hope no one wants them... I believe it's a 24 hour wait before the PS offer can be extended...

That is my thinking also, and I can see them sign the 6th round tackle they cut earlier in the week to the PS also.

I knew Weeks, I was asking about the backups to him. IIRC you are correct about Casey. I was wondering if they can teach Jones how to LS. Where is Bruce Matthews when you need him here to teach our guys.

Presser @ 2PM. Would think the majority of the cuts/moves would be announced then, with a couple bottom of the roster churns TBD.

[HPF Bob]

I can't believe the Vikings wouldn't claim Bryant after he blew up their pass protection all night last night. I sure hope Bryant makes it onto our practice squad. He, Grimes and Keenum especially.

RB3 is confirmed:

Grimes got whacked.

Sounds like he and Pleasant where offered PS spots.

[WMH]

Trindon made it.

Highlights from Kubiaks

Grimes has been released.

Holiday was not used in the offense during preseason due to wanted to get the young guys some more reps, but he will be used on offense and as a gunner.

Beck has looked better in the games then in the early practice. Beck earned his way onto the team

Harris has had an excellent camp. Roc has looked good.

Watt practice today and looked rusty but healthy
