Yea, that shocks me a bit.
I think he has a higher ceiling than Colquitt at this point.

Pop quiz: Who led the team in special teams tackles this preseason?

Pop quiz: Who led the team in special teams tackles this preseason? That may be a bigger indication on our punt coverage team.

All about the coin. Jamie is going to be cheap and he can kick the hell out if the ball. If it was close, he was going to win the job.

Colquit is one of the best, I would be surprised if they didn't trade him instead of just cut him.
The guys on CBD are going to be pissed.
Money move.

Wonder if things like this played a factor?
Other guys on the team seemed to really rally around the Scottish Hammer. Relationships/chemistry seem to be Freddie factors.

Well the Hammer can keep hammerin' away on punt coverage tackles, 'cause Seibert is more than adequate as a punter.

If we find a way to keep Gilbert, I like it. It just seems weird to keep him as #3.
Future trade bait?
Go Hilliard! If Hilliard does his job, Hunt will be the icing by week 8.
Only a few more days....... We did it last year.. We had Taylor, Mayfield and Stanton.

We should be able to get something for Colquitt. I'd bet teams are calling about him.
At DT, context and meaning are a scarecrow kicking at moving goalposts.

I was really unimpressed with Jackson in the 4th preseason game.

Not a cut but this probably means Braxton Miller is off the team.

Britton Colquitt is under contract through 2020. He is owed $2.7M this year and $2.8M next year. We get to recoup that entire amount if he is cut or traded. He is 34 years old.
Jamie Gillan is under contract through 2021 (and will be an ERFA after that). He is owed $495K in 2019, $585K in 2020, and $675K in 2021. He is 22 years old.
If the skill level was close then Gillan should have won the job based on the contracts.

I remember last time we traded a punter we got a 4th round pick (Andy Lee to the Panthers) Hopefully we can get something good as Colquitt is a good punter.

I get all of that and it makes a ton of sense, especially if we'd like to use the extra money to extend someone before the season or take on a contract for someone else. My only concern is placement and strategy in the punting game. Gillan is raw and it's as simple as that. All I have seen from the guy is simply booting it as hard as he can and then running to make a tackle.

None of these cuts surprise me. The biggest surprise, and it's not that shocking, is Gillan over Colquitt.

Most surprising Cuts IMO
Britten Colquit
Anthony Zettel
Derrick Willies

A bit surprised by Willies being cut ... but Taylor takes his spot I guess.
We must really have needed upgraded at OG obviuosly
"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."
