Pouncey wants to be released

[Csonked Out]

I could see us going Billy Price in round 2 now. This might cost us our tight end early in the draft.

Gase is partly getting rid of players that show a lack of leadership also. I'm on board with this move.

If you can decent guard and tackle play you can get by with a mid level center.

 

[superphin]

Doesn't he have trade value? If so, why release him????

Yeah, but I don't think a cheeseburger would really help right now.

 

[weisdolphins]

good go get ryan jensen

Do you think he would want to play with Kiko Alonso after this hit?

 

[mrbunglez]

Most of the Philbin and previous regime players are going bye bye. Who else besides Tannehill and James is left?

 

[ChrisEAS]

Anybody like Ryan Jensen from the Ravens? Good Center

Just got a yahoo sports alert saying ‘heartbroken’ Pouncey released. Lol.

 

[SCOTTY]

Not hard to replace someone who is never on the field. Been bad since 2014 and on minus a decent 2015 season. Last year was complete trash. He is done no matter where he goes. Thank you for the good years though.

Pretty sure he played every game last year. I'm not a huge fan but Miami is not dealing from a position of power here. We would have been better off keeping him 1 more year and planning his replacement.

Why not? It's football.

Should of parted ways from the beginning of FA, in comparison to some of the other moves they made.

Pretty clear what happened. It wasn’t a paycut issue . . . .Pouncey wanted an extension or restructure to where he would have some guaranteed money that the team won’t just cut him loose if he gets hurt or underperforms and Miami was content with where they had him.

Probably saw Ryan got a fat check for missing a bunch of time, why not him.

It is sad that this qualifies as one of their better moves in FA, and it wasn’t even their doing.

Fins where hoping to trade him. Never happened

 

[dlockz]

Never should have overpaid him in first place. This is a theme. Overpay, restructure then take worse cap hits down the road. At some point we might realize our idiot front office needs to be cut also

Mike Pouncey just clarified for me. He wants a release because the team did not want to do a longer-team deal. "I know my career isn’t over," Pouncey said.

LMAO

Pouncey.... you are crazy.

 

[BillsFanInPeace]

Fins have been trying to trade him.

No takers
