2014 White Purge

[Leonardfan]

The annual white purge is upon us. The eagles cut jake knott, joe Kruger and Blake annen

 

[Freethinker]

The Eagles had too many Whites on defense so some were bound to be cut. I hope at least Kruger can latch on somewhere else.

Does anyone know what happened to RB Beau Blankenship who was with the Jaguars? I'm assuming he was cut before the preseason games and will never be heard from again.

Add Conner Vernon; cut from Detriot today. Will this man ever get a chance?

Even though he hasn't gotten much of a chance to prove it, I firmly believe Jake Knott is starting caliber.

Was wondering the same about Blankenship.. Vernon is so damn underrated its criminal, but I knew he wouldn't have a chance with the Lions. Here's to hoping the real affletes get hurt so some of our guys can see the field.

 

[Don Wassall]

I did a search on Blankenship and there's nothing since he was cut by Jacksonville in July. No being jerked around the fringes of the league for years and never getting a genuine opportunity; he's already disappeared into the NFL's Memory Hole apparently.

The fact that Vernon hasn't been able to catch on with a team is proof positive that a caste system exists. Whites aren't supposed to play certain positions, such as wide receiver. Whites who play these positions don't get a fair shot.

There's no way Vernon isn't good enough to be at least a number 4 or 5 receiver in the league.

Wr Weston dressler cut by chiefs

 

[Don Wassall]

Long-time CFL receiving star Weston Dressler already cut by the receiving starved Chiefs.

Dressler was way better than anybody they have. Teams just dont wanna win these days.

Your attitude is understandable. I haven't watched one pre-season game, because the one I turned on I saw 18-19 black players on the field and instantly turned the channel. However, I will start watching some as the season progresses and rely on CF to let me know which white players to look for on each team.

Despite the injuries and the cutting of white players, there still are some guys to watch, Nelson, Woodhead, Gerhart, QB's etc.

....but like you I'm finding myself losing interest from year to year. There may be a time when I stop watching altogether myself.

The Vikings purged Andy cruse, Erik Lora and Brandon bishop

I'd like to see Lora signed to the Patriots practice squad. He obviously has chemistry with Jimmy Garoppolo, who should be the starting quarterback in a few seasons. This would make so much sense so I'm sure it won't happen.

Craig Steltz has been released by Chicago

 

[Don Wassall]

WR Devon Wylie cut by San Fran

WR Devon Wylie cut by San Fran

Wylie is a bit more muscular than Desean Jackson and about the same speed yet his one career reception is probably all he will see. Will no team give the speedster a chance?

 

[TwentyTwo]

Steltz had missed the offseason program and most of training camp because of offseason groin surgery....tried to come back vs Seahawks but was rusty...

The NFL is a brutal business...get hurt & that could be it.

Rumor has it the Bucs & Patriots mau be interested in signing Steltz.

DWF's in Chicago just thought Steltz was a liability in the passing game...wait til mid season when they are wanting to bench Danny McCray.

Ditto here. I don't anticipate watching but 1-2 games (tops) & that's mostly because my middle son enjoys it (he plays pee wee football). We still don't have TalmudVision, so we may catch a game or two with my Dad. If not for the interest of my son, I'd not watch a lick of it.

Was just checking a site that ranked the top 100 defensive players for fantasy football purposes. 7 of the top 14 are white, or a very disproportionate 50% in a league where not much more than 10% of defensive starters are white.

Whites have to be far better than blacks just to jump through all the Caste System hoops and get an opportunity, which is why they often tend to be stars. This wasn't the case in the 1990s, when several prominent White busts were used (and of course still are) as justification for defenses to "naturally" be coal black. Now it's Whites who routinely excel and blacks who are often busts, but the popular perception of Whites as inferior football players has changed very little thanks to the propaganda of the system's media arm.

Andy tanner seems to get screwed over every year by the saints

 

[Carolina Speed]

I see that Panthers wide receiver Brenton Bersin survived the first round of cuts, while the Panthers cut four other wideouts, i think he has a very good chance of making the 53 man roster, especially with the state of the Panthers receiving corps.

Yes Edlemandola. Amazing this guy is getting a chance coming from a school, Wofford, that ran the ball 90% of the time with Eric Breitenstein! It helps that Panthers Owner, Jerry Richardson is a Wofford Alumni and Bersin is a Charlotte native.

With all that said Bersin should be in the NFL. His stats were excellent based on the number of times he caught the ball.

His career stats at Wofford:

Rec. 76, Yds. 1556, 20.5 yds/rec and 15 TD's. Every fifth time he touched the ball he scored!

I saw him live several times once burning Clemson DB's and many SOCON DB's as well! The SOCON during his time their was considered the best D-1AA Conference.

I hope he makes it!

Cooper Taylor was put on IR.

ty Zimmerman cut by the saints

Bad news: Colt Lyerla was cut by the Packers even though he was injured.

Good news: The Bills signed QB Jordan Palmer and cut Thad Lewis. Buffalo will have Tuel and Palmer waiting in the wings when Manuel fails or gets injured.

Unsurprising news: The Giants cut the only White cornerback who was on an NFL roster, Kyle Sebetic. I can't even recall him playing in any of the preseason games.
