Punter Jeff Locke Already Got Cut

[Tom Moore]

They didn't even wait til the final cut down, so he must have stunk the place up.

Colts cut him now to assure he would not be on the opening day roster, or they'd have to pay his entire $1M salary.  As to is, he made $1.25M ($750k bonus and $500k guaranteed of his salary in year 1) to punt in practice and preseason games for 6 weeks.

Nice scratch....

so Jeff Locke, and Charles Johnson cut and these are guys that we've tried in the recent past to mind meld into being better than they are. Any others that have been cut from their squads? 

Our fan base seems to love the players to bits so much that we don't recognize when a guy is just a guy. Don't get me wrong that is fantastic for our fans to give our players so much support. But I do think at times we inflate our players abilities to the point where it makes it easy on the front office to get away with lacking talent. And I mean on the starting lineup, never mind depth.

Has he been cut too? That's another guy that fans just thought for sure he was going to be something other than what he was.

Audie was cut by the Jags.  he got $100k to move on, so he better hope the Vikes want him back, or that may be it for him.  we love Audie the person!

Yes, if viewers like a lot of bland stares and eye blinking....

Dunno, haven't watched him this year but he certainly was solid last year.  Don't think he fits in this thread.
