    First wave...

    I have a feeling this isn't the last of Ross Martin. Folk is safe another year. Devin Smith PUP'd and you have to wonder if another trip to IR is in his future.

    No thanks, I'm good with Folk. Not hopping on the rookie kicker wagon.

    Folks up there in age and coming off an injury....Honestly dont trust him and would rather build up a young kicker.Ross drilled it from 55 yds dead center...Folk hasnt played since week 8 in 2015

    I trust the staff in knowing that folk still got it. He's been with us for a while now and made some clutch kicks

    He's also only 4/6 in preseason and missed a couple of chip shots in that first game and has also missed an extra point. He's inconsistent and unreliable. Folk kicks 80% for his career, and 86% the past three seasons. He's also never missed an extra point in his career. Folk's also kicked a field goal of 51 yards or longer in every single year he's been in the league, and 17/26 from 50+ with us over the past 6 years.

    Let's stick with the sure thing here, ya friggain Negative Nancy.

    Pretty sure Folk played in the first two preseason games. You know, the ones where Martin missed nearly everything.

    They should have Folk and Martin face each other on the 50 yard line. Then take turns kicking each other in the nuts. First one to go down or puke is off the team. This shit is so simple.

    I'm surprised Jarvis Harrison got released.

    why the surprise?
    he looked absolutely terrible last game, and hasn't managed to dent the depth chart at either G or T.
    really hasn't done anything at all since he's been here. a draft selection doesn't buy multiple years of doing nothing. i'm glad they cut bait.

    I hadn't heard about his performance really, hence my thread about OL play I made. That's unfortunate he's looked bad. I'll look for it once I watch the Giants game. I haven't gotten a chance to yet.

    Why'd I think this thread was about Brook finally snapping at a preseason game?

    I know we are pretty stacked at the position but I'm disappointed to see Shelby Harris released.

    No we shouldn't have. He wasn't all that good. Your reasoning is he drilled a 55 yarder? How about the ones he missed?

    Bitching over cutting a bad kicker is one of the most SOJF things I've ever seen.

    LOL @ even thinking of cutting the Folk hero. Dude has been clutch since he's been here.
