    Default You're the GM. Who do you cut?

    On Tuesday, Sept. 27, the Chiefs have to trim their roster to 75. That means they have to get rid of 15 players who aren't even good enough to get another look in the 4th and final preseason game. Put on your GM cap. Who do you think already deserves to get the ax?

    OK, here's my list in no particular order. I looked at the depth chart, roster and salaries. The first 10 where pretty easy, but I had a hard time coming up with 5 more. Stanzi is not on my list, but I'm pretty sure he will get cut in the final round of cuts.

    1. Frankie Hammond (WR)
    2. Rob Lohr (RDE)
    3. Jordan Roberts (RB)
    4. Rico Richardson (WR)
    5. Kennard Cox (SS)
    6. Otha Foster (SS)
    7. Demetrius Harris (TE)
    8. Colin Kelly (ROT)
    9.Tommie Draheim (C)
    10. Greg Castillo (CB)
    11. Jamaar Newsome (WR)
    12. Dustin Waldron (LT)
    13. Rickie Henry (RG)
    14. Tyler Shoemaker (WR)
    15. Kevin Brock (TE)

    Agreed. Chase Daniel just all but wrote Stanzi's epitaph last night by keeping his poise even though he was getting pounded into muck repeatedly & finding a way to make plays.

    It's tough to guess who Dorsey & Reid will part ways with...Will say this, wouldn't be surprised at all if we start bringing a bunch of recievers to try out after other teams make their cuts. Especially after the 49'ers game, with all the missed catches.

    Wow! I suck!

    I only got 4 of the 14 right.

    Foster, Lohr, Roberts and Shoemaker.
    I could still get one more depending on who the 15th cut is.

    I missed Agnew and Hawkins because they weren't listed on the roster (http://www.arrowheadpride.com/pages/...fs-2013-roster) depthchart (http://www.kcchiefs.com/team/depth-chart.html) or salary listing (http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs/). I didn't know they were still on the team!

    I should have got Chavis, Durand, McIlwain and Thorpe because they were on the roster but not the depth chart or salary list.

    Copper was a 10 yr veteran and had a 3 yr contract so I kept him and cut Newsome and Richardson. I guess the Chiefs figured he was near the end of his career and they could save some money by letting him go. That makes sense.

    I had Eckerson on my original list. I can't remember why I took him off.

    I didn't want to cut Braden Wilson because I'm a kansas State fan and we only have two other Fullbacks on the team. But who uses fullbacks in the NFL anymore? LOL. I hope another team picks him up.

    Stanzi is a surprise, even though I didn't think he was gonna make the final cut. I thought they would give him a look in preseason game 4 just to see if he might be better than Bray, but let's face it. His ticket was punched as soon as they brought Chase Daniels in. Might as well cut him now so other teams can have more time to decide if they want to give him a look.

    Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. Right, Chiefster?

    Well there still are like 22 or 23 people who are going to be cut between now and the 1st week, so you may be right about the guys you listed, just not with the right cut.
