McGlothern waived

[pattersaur]

Nashon Wright - cut by Flores in April, 6'4" 200# CB who doesn't even get the chance to go to minicamp, is a starter for the Bears with 4 interceptions, 2 against JJ
Reddy Steward - was our most impressive CB in pre season, cut by Flores, has played nickel for Cowboys this year with one start
Mekhi Blackmon - traded for a 6th, starter for Colts, two picks this year
Camryn Bynum - not resigned after being glue of secondary past few years, big part of Colts success this year, 2 picks this year

These 4 castoffs by Flores have 5 more interceptions than our entire team this year! We have absolutely no secondary and we gave away starting talent. Flores has been absolutely awful this year in game prep and game adjustments, which he is never called out on.  At what point does someone see he cannot evaluate talent.  Fully expect McGlothern to shine somewhere else.

None of those guys are all-pros but I agree, it's hard to believe at least 1-2 of them couldn't be contributing for the Vikes defense this year over guys like McGlothern... who we just cut.

Really wild that people are upset about this. McGlothern has played in less than 1/2 of 1% of all defensive snaps. He was a bottom-roster cut, likely to make room for Kelly. Plus he was a UDFA. It’s pretty obvious to me that the Vikings liked Moreau and Vaughn and the two corners they brought in this Fall  (Bartholomew and Funderburk) a little more than him. It happens. 

You wanna be upset about something, be upset about trading Mekhi Blackmon for a box of Cheez-its. That is one that I still can’t get my head around.

I am not wildly upset.  Just thought it odd to deplete our DB corps further.  But as I posted in the OP, he hasn't played much for sure.
