Tom [Giants fan] Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 I wonder if we will be seeing anyone cut who is worth picking up for our respective teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeHateMe Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Taylor Stubblefield will get on someone's practice squad. Yep. Rod Rutherford may get a look see somewhere else too. But Stubblefield is easily practice squad material at worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
