Here Comes The Turk -- Running List of Cuts (Merged)

**bighoop70** · 08-31-2012, 11:02 AM

I think Considine is one of Harbs favorites. There was a video on br.com early in training camp of Harbs praising Considine and
how they went back to his Philly days.

It's Considine who cause Omar's cut. Hopefully no one watched the Ravens preseason games and takes him. This sucks bad.

I was thinking that maybe the reason the Ravens may keep Berry since he isn't a rookie. For the life of me I can't see them keeping two rookie backups without another veteran no matter how good those rooks are. Berry at least has a year in. Wait and see I guess.

Did they cut Chyl Quarles on Monday?

Still though, I'd be cool with seeing Graham sent to the PS.

It's possible Wraggle, Harewood and Considine are keeping spots warm until we add from other rosters.

I'm excited about Hall, Deonte. Sad about Carr. Tyson has grown on me.

I hope we can keep Kitchen on PS all year.

Lastly, why is this day called the Turkmenistan?

Considine, it's just horrible. Even ST's, just horrible. This is another one of the Harbaugh connections, I get it, but didn't deserve a spot IMPO. Hopefully we can get Brown on PS.

Turkmenistan?

The Turk is the nickname for the guy who comes and calls the player in to meet with the coaches. It is literally the worst job in football. The guy is basically dooming all these cut players and has to take the long awkward walk of silence with them. And they have to get the playbooks too.

This video is from a couple years ago, but is a great reference vid for it

Don't understand the apparent surprise from some at Considine sticking. He's not looked good in the preseason, but how often does a veteran player a team signs in the offseason, more for their ST ability than their defensive ability, get cut because of a poor preseason? My guess would be not often.

Jack Cornell released, per WNST

**DrUnk** · 08-31-2012, 11:16 AM

Even the Kitchen sink got cut

I'm not thrilled at the prospect of keeping Considine either. He has looked really bad in the games I've seen. But I'd like to think there's more to the decision than "Harbaugh connections". I'll give the coaches the benefit of the doubt. It's not like they have a ton of quality options. And who knows, further roster moves are always a possibility.

Agree it'd be nice to get Brown on the PS. He's certainly looked a lot better than Considine when playing in the secondary.
