Disappointed as well to be honest. However, Anderson’s rookie contract is set to expire after this season. If they didn’t view him as a long term contributor, perhaps the thinking was that they might as well let another player learn and grow in the system.

If they want to create competition they should have made players beat out Hankins and Anderson. If they did, so be it - cut them. But they got next to nothing for releasing them (cash and a 7th rd pick) and I find it hard to believe they wouldn’t make this D better.

Still out of work. What I’ve read is that he’s insisting on a lot of money, so it’s turned a few teams off. If I recall correctly, he lasted quite a while on the FA market for the same reason before we signed him. He’ll find a team eventually

I agree. I dislike the Hankins cut, but I get that if they are certain he does not fit, push the money forward. Anderson was cheap as chips and seemed to be doing everything to fit the system, why not give him a chance vs a 7th round throw away pick.

I suspect they watched him during mini camp and thought it just wasn't going to work. If we cut him we get nothing. I don't know if they would keep him over a guy who they thought had a future on the team. Also it gives him a chance to go to a team where he can show what he has got before his contract is up. Just speculating, but I suspect they would have cut him if they are talking a group of 8 linemen.

All I see in this move is scheme inflexibilitity. It's the exact opposite of what I wanted. It's what made the Colts get rid of Dwight Freeney because they somehow couldn't figure out how to use an all-time great pass rusher. If you can't figure out how to use Hankins and Anderson in your scheme, your scheme sucks.
