NFL Roster Cuts: San Francisco 49ers Maybe Considering Free Agent/Waiver Options?

in 49ers Roster
Email
PrintThe San Francisco 49ers are working through their roster cuts and will have official names sometime in the next half hour or so. In the meantime, much of the news coming out is via league sources, agents, players and so forth. Phillip Adams tweeted out "Blessed" but then Matt Maiocco indicated he has in fact been cut. I guess Adams is simply looking at the bigger picture. If he has in fact been cut, hopefully he is able to land elsewhere and make a career for himself in the league.
We're also getting a lot of information about practice squad candidates. Thus far, we've seen tweets indicating Chase Beeler, Joe Hastings, Cory Nelms and Konrad Reuland have all been cut but the team wants to sign them to the practice squad if they clear waivers.
Reuland is an interesting one given his battle for the 49ers third tight end spot. Nate Lawrie is the only other healthy option (minus Brian Jennings, of course). Does that mean it's Lawrie's job, or maybe the team is considering a free agent/waiver option at tight end. Even if Lawrie does not get cut today, most teams will make additional roster moves in the coming days once they see the players available on the waiver wire. It will be interesting to see what kind of transactions take place tomorrow and into the coming week.
Cuts after the jump.
The cuts so far include:
QB Josh McCown
WR Dominique Zeigler
S Chris Maragos
WR Chris Hogan
WR Joe Hastings
CB Phillip Adams
TE Konrad Reuland
CB Cory Nelms
S Curtis Taylor

He won't be cut.
I think they are rolling with Norris and Miller… and Miller will be used as a FB/ TE prob.

and they can bring in Norris to miss a block...

I seriously hope
That their plan is to pick up a QB off the waiver wire… I am no way comfortable with only Alex and CK7. We need another veteran backup.
Gotta agree
I’m still not sure why McCown got cut, since he looked decent when called upon. I guess maybe we’ll see who they add…
Ninjames on Anthony Dixon's Tweeting:
"He’s going for the ‘T’ key, he should probably turn to it, but he stops and checks out the ‘R’ key first, then doubles back for a look at the ‘Y’ key, then by the time he decides to go back to ‘T’ to get some words typed, he’s brought down for a two-yard loss, ending up with the ‘G’ key."
It's so Kap can get all 2nd team snaps...
I figure if Smith goes down, they will pick up a guy to take over the starting spot… But Kap needs all the practice reps he can get… This is why Harbaugh chose this route…
Something is wrong with your list
I don’t see Moran Norris

Is game tape that clear...
Where you can go out and cut guys who’ve been w/ you all through training camp and made the 53-man roster in order to sign waived players from other teams right before the season? Seems like familiarity w/ your system would give some advantage, but I guess tape and talent trumps all.

that is tempting. I’ve been against adding another developmental guy, but with the way he lit it up the other night… tempting.

Against the guys that didn't make our team.

Didn't quite a bit of our "starting" secondary
play in that game? I know Rogers didn’t play that much and Spencer is hurt, but Brown and Brock played quite a bit.

Not against Tolzien...
I think only Aldon and Dobbs (maybe Ian) are the players that made the team and played against Tolzien
Either way, it’d be an interesting pickup but might be slightly detrimental to Kaep’s development

Every pass that the 2nd developmental QB gets is 1 less for Kaep's development

If he's better than Kaep, I don't have a problem with that.
They should be trying to sign the best QBs available at all times given our history at that position.

Colin Jones is way too fast
to give up on. If they can re-direct him to actually “touch” or “tackle” the other teams ball carrier than the coaches will have turned water into wine.
They were experimenting with him as a WR at one point.
I really have no idea what the deal is with him, or that.

because he can't:
catch worth a crap

yeah there may or not be some embellishment going on here
although he’s pretty much all-around mediocre, and has no upside.

that's just the point
Walker, Byham (when healthy), or even Miller can block 90+% as well, but have upside, and are much better in every other category.

Rathman could block
And run and catch. Norris used to be a good/ not great blocker, cannot run, and cannot catch.

yeah huh!
Ninjames on Anthony Dixon's Tweeting:
"He’s going for the ‘T’ key, he should probably turn to it, but he stops and checks out the ‘R’ key first, then doubles back for a look at the ‘Y’ key, then by the time he decides to go back to ‘T’ to get some words typed, he’s brought down for a two-yard loss, ending up with the ‘G’ key."
you've clearly
never watched him bump into opposing players and then fall down. That’s if he actually touches them. He’s like old furniture, can’t get rid of them.
I'm still baffled why they don't move Dixon to FB
And let Gore run behind him. He could easily fill the Rathman/Floyd role in the offense.

Dixon blocks like he runs
He doesn’t explode into blocks, he’s not decisive, and he’s slow. He’s really not a good blocker and tha’s the main job of the FB. Other than that I have no idea.
