Ajayi wasnt cut
It's just too difficult to compare the impact of a running back and two wide receivers, but Ajayi is not in the same class as an NFL player as OBJ. Not even close. Beckham is consistently great.
OBJ is a player that I don't give a **** about his "baggage"..... I take him on my football team at any price tag no matter what.
It’s a scapegoat move bro, if gase really wanted to replace guys who didn’t care he would’ve ditched the guards, cutler, and Thomas long ago. Ajayi had the most heart and effort every game but he didn’t put up with gase’s bs so he traded him instead of blaming the real probem which is his trash play calling because gase is weak.

I completely disagree. Say what you want about Cutler, but he has given a lot to this team. He was practically begging to play last week. If he didn't care, as you say, he would say his ribs hurt too much to play and he would hold his clipboard and cash in his $10M. The guards just don't have talent, has nothing to do with not caring. They're busting their butts, they're just awful. Thomas is old and slow, not sure how much he cares but not caring and just being bad are completely different. Do I think it was a mistake to bring in Cutler, absolutely. That money could have been used to sign the players we want to keep, but in no way can you say he doesn't care.
As far as Ajayi, he may have played with heart on game days, but if he didn't put the work in during the week, he doesn't have heart. Studying his playbook and learning his assigments are putting up with Gase's bs? No, it's his job. They butt heads because Gase called him out on it. Are we better without him, absolutely not, but anyone who was starting to slack off and follow in his footsteps will think twice about it now. I have a feeling over the next few weeks, the play calling will change. Gase has basically already said he needed to dumb it down to Ajayi's level. Guess we'll see.
Ah so he had heart the first game of last season??... Oh that's right, he wasn't there because he was butt hurt he wasn't handed the starting job and handed the workload based upon Lamar Miller was no longer there instead of idk.. actually proving and showing he was worth the starting nod and workload? HEART goes well beyond the 4 hours on Sunday/Monday/Thursday time frame for the game(s). HEART is shown also during practice(s) and offseason, look at Lamar Miller, each offseason he did something different to improve, he even worked out with Frank Gore and learned from him until he began to master his craft and eventually became the starter(later on had reason to be upset at the total number of his carries after he developed).
I enjoyed watching Jay play, am I a bit eh that he is gone? Yes, but I am not going to be like welp FML now we are bottom of the barrel team(because in reality, we were close to that mark already). At the same time, I can get why it was easy to ship him out or even cut if needed be, he was on a rookie contract, where as cutting Jay Cutler or Thomas is flushing millions down the drain with no back up plan, truly sending a message would have been cutting Thomas/trading him if a team was silly enough to trade for him at this point but reality is, the NFL is about sending a message when it fits into your current cap/roster situation, otherwise it's dead air being breathed out.
