Hugh Douglas and Jon Ritchie cut!

ritchie doesn't shock me

Stop definding the FO at all turns.

...but I don't like Parry either.

I don't think anybody likes Parry, he's just the only option since Ritchie's too hurt to help the team.

anybody surprised sciullo was cut?  that leaves them with a lot of inexperienced guys backing up the OL.

[WEST is GOD]

I kinda expected it. He hasn't played very well.

Not really. Experienced guys that suck don't help much either. 

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Sciullo played flat-footed.  The guy was ok in pass protection, but getting a push off the line seemed to be an issue.

[hunt]

well, i will miss sciullo.


not really...i was just throwing his name out there since he actually got some PT last season.

[Susquehanna Birder]

Funny, I was just outside saying to the wife that I had a sneaking suspicion that Hugh would be cut. They have a lot of talent on that line, he pretty much disappeared, even with the second-stringers, and his short contract assured minimal cap hit.

I really like the guy, and it's a shame that it came down to that. But that's what the NFL does.

I'm surprised Thornburg made it, I was pulling for him, but I think we have like 4 free safeties now, 3 on the active roster. But I couldn't see Ritchie and Douglas getting cut. I guess they cut Hugh because they were worried about TO's face.

I thought Hugh's personality and veteran leadership would have been enough to make the team

Don't know how Parry beat Ritchie out, he doesn't lead block as well and his hands aren't as good

Agreed 100%

I suppose in regards to Hugh's veteran leadership they just figured they had enough of that on the defense already with guys like Dawk and Trott.  I'm really sad to see him go.  I wonder if he's going to sign elsewhere or hang 'em up for good? 

[General_Failure]

He's going back to Jacksonville.

[MDS]

He'll probably hang around, stay in shape and do some TV work. The Eagles will have the usual pack of injuries to the defensive line, and they'll resign him.

If not, he can always crack jokes with Freddie at the unemplyoment line.

[Don Ho]

Best thing about Reno making the team is I don't have to change my sponsorship.

Jacked that Bruce Perry made it.  We're gonna have one small ass backfield though.

[General_Failure]

This way we don't have to worr about our power back getting hurt.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Huuuuuugh!

Sad to see him leave.

I'm not sold on Parry. I think he's still looking for someone to block...but I'll wait and see on that.
