The #AZCardinals released former first-round defensive lineman Robert Nkemdiche, with frustration from the team coming to a head. Time will tell if a fresh start does the trick.

Kind of a surprising release by the Cardinals .. he must have been a headache without much production
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

Chubb and another RB are on the PUP list. We need to look at an additional RB or 2 as camp bodies until they return. I didn't know. How come that isn't reported? I suppose it was. I just haven't seen anything.

Nkemdiche was/is a very talented player, but character questions always made him a risky pick. I hate seeing talent like that wasted.

Yeah, he’s had red flags all the way back to Ole Miss ... just clearly hasn’t gotten it together yet (or never will)

We’ll see how he performs this year; many of us wanted us to snag him

Love OSU as much as anybody, but I think we're steadfast on Stanton (for good or ill). I don't see us bringing in competition for #3 until we see what Gilbert and Blough have in preseason. Jmho.

He must be looking really bad to get released this early. That or he just doesn't seem to get it.

THEO RIDDICK
RB, DENVER BRONCOS
Broncos signed RB Theo Riddick.
The 28-year-old pass-catching back visited the Saints and Broncos after his release from the Lions but had trouble ginning up more interest. Riddick has a reputation as a strong receiver, but he has been sub-replacement level two of the past three seasons, posting a 7.0 YPC or lower in both 2016 and 2018. Riddick is a complete zero as a runner. His addition has Devontae Booker's 53-man roster spot on life support. As the No. 3 back in an offense that will either be quarterbacked by Joe Flacco or rookie Drew Lock, Riddick is going to have trouble creating PPR value.

Aug 1, 2019, 1:58 PM ET The Broncos have been talking up Royce Freeman usage and just signed Riddick. Phillip Lindsay has to wondering what's up.

Yeah, I didn’t see Riddick there given the fact that they already had Freeman and Lindsay

I thought the Chiefs would sign Riddick. It seems like the Chiefs can throw basically any running back in that offense and be successful. They cut Kareem Hunt and the two guys they replaced him with were somehow better on a per play basis.

Seems like that yes, kind of like Shanahan’s system in Denver, Atlanta, and now SF

When the defense is so concerned about the pass game that they drop 6 or more into coverage, it does make running easier.

Haha honestly, if I were one of the two Kickers I would really hope he doesn’t approach the practice field

If the Browns' kickers have been as bad as the media has reported, there's 3 FA kickers available that *might* be worth a look: Mike Nugent, Kai Forbath, and Cody Parkey. Not sure Nugent is fully healed after a hip or groin (not sure) injury last year, but I always liked his range - he had a 55 yarder in 2017 at age 35.

Yeah, this is a concern. In all honesty, I would have preferred to just keep rolling with Joseph and build his confidence ... but of course hindsight is 20/20 If the Browns' kickers have been as bad as the media has reported, there's 3 FA kickers available that *might* be worth a look: Mike Nugent, Kai Forbath, and Cody Parkey.

I don't know about that - I think I disagree - if a guy's confidence is so fragile that he gets the jelly-leg at the idea of having camp competition, how is he going to react when faced with a potential game-winning kick with the playoffs on the line in December? You need big brass ones and a short memory to be a successful kicker, IMO.

Think we can get the Redskins to throw in Dustin Hopkins K in any trades we make to get Trent Williams?
I know the answer is no but a guy can dream.
Am I perfect? No
Am I trying to be a better person?
Also no

A bunch of teams are carrying two kickers through training camp. Once cuts come down there will be a bunch more guys available. Usually there is a surprise cut or two when it comes to kickers. Last year the Cowboys cut Dan Bailey. Here is the depth charts for all the kickers in the league: https://www.ourlads.com/nfldepthcharts/depthchartpos/PK
