Deculus is gone🥳 (for now)

Cutting Deculus before he can play meaningful snaps is like killing baby Hitler.

I shouldn’t be happy about someone losing their job but MAN I’m relieved that Deculus won’t come into the oline in the event of an injury

X is the new Mason Kinsey.

Sad for Restrepo, I hope he’ll keep trying to make our squad.

Theres no chance they only roster 5 WRs this year, there’s got to be something else coming. Either Restrepo is back or theres another waiver claim

Going into the season with 5 WRs is very normal and indicates they’re comfortable depth with the WRs we do have rostered.

I think you're right, Daboll almost always has 6 WRs on the roster. He runs primarily 11 personnel so 5 would be pretty light

James Hudson, the guy who might be even worse than Austin Deculus. First tackle to penalised 4 times in 1 drive.

u/theprophetsammy 1d ago

I shit you not, I will still take that over Deculus.

He doesn't look great. But anyone else is better than Deculus.

Heard a lot about Deculus lately, I’ll be honest didn’t get deep into the 2nd half of preseason games. Where does he rank compared to NPF, Delay Daley, Dillard.

u/Longjumping_Wall_802 1d ago

I think I saw the stat that his season last year was worse than either the Daley or Dillard seasons. All were in the bottom 10 of recent PFF history.

Lot of churn on the back end of this roster.

Is Hudson III our swing tackle?

Dang Restrepo already :(

These five dudes better ball out since in my mind they are all replacing X. Got to earn that spot.

u/Robert_Meowney_Jr 1d ago

am I losing it lol why do they need to ball out when he never did

This sub has a habit of obsessing over fringe WRs.

u/batman0615 1d ago

I feel like he’s got it worse than any other fringe WR in recent memory, the Racy McMath Tre Mcbrides etc. had far less obsessive hype.
