Eagles Roster Cuts: Quintin Demps, Macho Harris, Cornelius Ingram among releases

PrintThe Eagles are nearly finished as the 6pm deadline approaches at which the Eagles roster must be at 53. The most recent cuts include.
Jordan Norwood, Cornelius Ingram, Dallas Reynolds, Fenuki Tupou, Eric Moncur, Jeff Owens, Tracy White, Macho Harris, & Quintin Demps.
The biggest surprise is that both Quintin Demps & Macho Harris were cut. That means at this point only three safeties are on the roster, two of which are rookies (Nate Allen & Kurt Coleman). You would think that will almost assuredly change by opening day. The Eagles will undoubtedly be combing the waiver wire looking for a veteran safety over the next few days.
The Eagles have two more cuts to make. Guys like Moise Fokou, Hank Baskett, Kelley Washington, King Dunlap, Jorrick Calvin & Jamar Chaney are all candidates.
[Note by JasonB, 09/04/10 6:18 PM EDT ] Adam Caplan is reporting that the final cut was WR Kelley Washington.

Macho is gone :)
But I’m surprised Demps was released.
With the amount of supporters he had
We should almost expect a name like that. I never got the love for him. It had to be the name, right?
The fire was pre-Tech
goes back to his Highland Springs days. I remember Beamer talking about them bonding over it because I guess that’s how Frank’s neck got like that.

MACHO and DEMPS?
Interesting.
As a second-year player, this is gonna sound silly since he started some last year, but he is practice squad eligible, isn’t he?

i dont think so
he was on the active roster for i think the entire season
Where one era ends, another begins
Surprised about
Ingram, Macho AND Demps (figured one of them would be cut.)
Anyway Ingram hits the practice squad?

I hope so
I really want to see him come back from those shitty knees of his. A la Buckhalter.

Ingram to PS makes sense
because it also makes sense no other team will want to take a chance on his injured [self].

Lets hope
that no one else has a love affair with ACL injuries like the eagles. lol

Baskett and Dunlap are next
I really love the Roseman dude, he aint wasting our time with misses. If you can’t play, you aint on the Eagles!
I really love what he did this offseason….
Yeah I think Baskett is gone, Washington is a good receiver and was great on special teams. Disappointed that Mallett didn’t get a spot but not surprised he showed some good running skills and ran pretty well.
Mallett
First guy on the PS if he doesn’t get a job elsewhere.

I don't know
but depends if he considers PS “making” the team. Most guys with NFL dreams tend to want to stick any way possible, but maybe CFL is offering something guaranteed. No idea.

I'm kinda hoping
Mallet hits the PS.

I like it too ...
… and it’s constant competition, which is good for the roster.
I won’t miss Dunlap personally, but I would feel a little bad for Baskett. Personally, not that the Eagles would really be noticeably different with/without him.

He may looks like a weasel
But Roseman appears to be doing a damn crafty job.
Effective guy.

Next two cuts:
1. Kelly Washington
2. Jorrick Calvin
.. in my opinion
I think they keep washington and andy does love his OL but maybe Dunlap but Calvin I don’t see room on the roster for.
Andy loves his OL?
I hope Queen goes. I’ll be upset if he gets a roster spot over Demps/Macho.

Do we really have another backup RT?
I know Herremans can/would slide over, but there has to be something behind that, no?
Either way tho
Assuming Stacy is on the team next week (which is a big assumption I think), you think they would be fine with just sliding Stacy/Todd over and not having a true backup?
If Howard's on the roster
I would assume that’s why.
Although I still think in a pinch, now with Wells on board, we’d slide Herremans or Andrews out and let Wells/Cole/MJG play guard.

I guess
but that’s a lot of mish-mashing. From what I’ve read/seen, Howard has been exclusively taking snaps at LT. If one or two go down, then we have players all over the place.
Nonetheless, I will not shed a tear if Dunlap is cut.
Damn
And here I thought Macho was making the team.
I expect Jeff Owens and Cornelius Ingram to get practice squad invites. Maybe Chad Hall.

Part of this is really the art of ...
… not exposing guys with potential to the rest of the league AND not having guys on the roster Week 1 that will be guaranteed full salaries (see Lav Coles scene in Hard Knocks).

Also I'd like to be on record saying ...
… this is not the last we’ll see of Macho Harris.
He’s either going to get a job elsewhere in the NFL with a team who will pick a position and stick him there, or be something of a cross between Dexter Wynn/Klecko/Baskett/Trotter … a guy who always seems to end up on the Eagles roster.

Haha
Lions just said they wouldn’t release their cuts until 8PM. Lame.

so our RG is either going to be MJG or Reggie Wells who has been on the team for about 3 days?
by MidwesternEaglesfan on Sep 4, 2010 6:12 PM EDT up reply actions
Reggie Wells
almost for sure. MJG is a decent backup, at best.
OMFG
This dude(Roseman) is my new hero!
Please don’t mess this offseason up by keeping Baskett. Washington looks like he is better in the little time I saw of him.
might jsut be for a draft pick because they have a safety in mind they want to sign and they don’t want to cut 3 more players because of it.
by MidwesternEaglesfan on Sep 4, 2010 6:15 PM EDT reply actions
Not a killer though…we’re talking about strictly a ST player. 5th WRs don’t win Super Bowls, one way or the other. Baskett has traditionally been a decent ST player. Washington looked better this year, but Baskett usually does a good job on ST. Should be OK, although I would have also preferred Washington.
i agree I just think Kelley would of helped us more. They are both good special teamers. I just think Kelley was better and could of helped us as a 5th WR a few plays a game
5th WRs don’t win Super Bowls
Yeah! I mean if an onside kick goes to direction of Baskett, he should get…
Um, bad example.
RIP Jim Johnson, best ever.

Looks like
Kelly Washington was released according to Adam Caplan
Surprised
More by Demps than Macho. Demps at least could return kicks. But oh, well. I ain’t complaining. I figured CI wasn’t gon last. 1 ACL tear is hard enough to come back from, but 2 in the same knee? Practice squad chance.
