Our 6th Rd pick last year. The one with the heart condition.

That wasn't directed at him in particular because in reality they didn't even have to pay him what they did. It was more a general observation that they seem to be cleaning house. Of which I support completely.bigskydoc":cf3jywrf said:MizzouHawkGal":cf3jywrf said:Nice to see they are actually starting to cut bait on some of these guys that can never even make the field.

Seriously? Once his heart condition was discovered, he had almost zero impact on the Hawks one way or another. Didn't take up a roster spot. Keeping him on the NFI list only cost an additional $106,000 against the cap. (He made $298k but cutting him still would have cost $101.6k in dead money).
I do think it is time. He doesn't take up a roster spot, but his cap hit this year is $535k and it doesn't appear that he will ever play again.
I agree it's time, but it's not like the guy was a huge drag on us.
