Big Name Cut Candidates

Hi, with lots of big moves from teams happening, I'm going to make a post about big name players who could be cut in the team trim down before the regular season. Some quick news that the Steelers sign former Browns CB Joe Haden to a 3 year deal. Here it is:

Brock Osweiler, QB, Browns:
The once favorite/front runner to win the Browns QB job now is likely on his way out of Cleveland. Brock has pretty much no chance of staying on the Browns. He has a huge $16 million dollar annual salary which makes him such a horrible player to have on your team. Also behind starter DeShone
Kizer, the Browns have 2 decent backups in Cody Kessler and Kevin Hogan. Osweiler will either be cut or traded by the start of the season.

Jermaine Kearse, WR, Seahawks:
Kearse may be considered a great receiver for the Seahawks but he is likely also on his way out. The young receiver has never had a crazy breakout season but has always been a decent weapon for Russell Wilson who always seems to never have great stats but makes the plays that count. The Seahawks are reportedly trying to trade him but if they can't find a partner they will likely just cut him. The Seahawks are willing to do this as the rest of their receivers have stepped up lately. Doug Baldwin has turned into an elite WR1. Tyler Lockett has the speed and hands to ball out. Paul
Richardson has been insane recently and this preseason Kasen Williams has emerged. The Hawks don't need Kearse anymore and he could be on his way out the door.

Matt Jones, RB, Redskins:
Since Jones was drafted to the Redskins, everything people have been excited about for him has just gone south. Picked in the 3rd round of the 2015 draft, Jones was supposed to be a great starter for the Redskins but only 2 years onto the team, Jones has been anything but that. Jones has been benched lately and it seems like the team is picking on him and doesn't seem to like him. If the team can't find a trade partner, Jones will be cut.

Roberto Aguayo, K, Bears:
Aguayo was cut 2 weeks ago by the Bucs and will likely be cut twice in the same month. The Bucs as we all know drafted Aguayo in the 2nd round of last years draft so he would be one of the best kickers in the league. It flopped and Aguayo was probably the worst kicker in the league. After the Bucs cut him the Bears signed him to compete with starter Connor Barth to see if they could get another side out of Aguayo. They've seen the same Bucs Aguayo and he will likely be cut again.

Thanks for reading!
