Stupid move on the part of Watts - cut him and save the space for someone that WILL make a difference, and sorry guys Pead is just far to freaking expensive to keep around for what he brings to the table - cut him tonal keep Brown the rookie RB and we've got a space for a WR that wants to play ST and potentially step up (as a backup) if Quick doesn't return to the form he had pre-injury, woo hoo ;)

What a shame, I really liked Watts from what I saw in preseason. Faulk was giving him some praise as well, which is big IMO.
 
Annoys me how Pead just keeps getting a free ride on the roster for doing nothing. I understand he has some skills blocking and catching and he did nice work on ST for a little bit, but he's not pulling his weight.

Talent. Pead has it. He just hasnt figured it out yet. One of those guy's they keep around just incase the light switch goes on - because if it does he can provide us with something completely different on offense.
 
I know Pead has been infuriating but talent wise I'd take him over Brown, Watts or any other UDFA we have. I don't think he's had the best of opportunities here and the injury sure didn't help. He's been a bit of a knucklehead but I hope he gets one more decent chance and uses it wisely. Otherwise, time to cut bait.
 
Well...we can easily save a space for Malcolm Brown and maybe another running back who gets cut later on. Highly doubt that either Watts or Pead will make the team at this point.

I think Brown offers some hard nosed running that could be useful down the line...

He was one of my favorite picks that draft, loved him coming out of college. He really didn't impress his rookie year then the 2nd year he lost time to the hot Zac Stacy. Third year went down with the injury. I hope he's able to do something this year in whatever carries he's able to manage. I just have a feeling he won't get much of a chance and he'll sign elsewhere in 2016 and shine.

From what I've read coach he's great at running forward a couple yards falling down and holding onto the ball. Everybody could use a short yardage guy like that. And with Stacy gone and now this with Watts I think a job on the 53 man is his to take.

I concur @OldSchool the door is now open and his size 5-11 225lbs makes him the 2nd largest back on the team with that guy from Georgia being just a tad bigger, you know, what's his name?:sleep:

I don't argue that but what do you think he offers that Cunningham doesn't? seems like a Stacey clone to me. (not that fast). But you could be right as a short yardage guy.
 
I think they keep Watts till the suspension is over if he doesn't count against the roster. That way they can carry an extra RB. If that extra RB out performs Watts they can just cut him after his suspension is done. I like Watts so I will be pulling for him.
