Im trying to figure it out in my head.

Do we IR someone on the current 53 or waive someone on the 53 that is practice squad eligible and if they clear cut a current PS player to sign.

Fortt/Lorig IR or some variation.

One or two spots open up.

Tomorrow Lorig to IR- Designated to Return. Resign whoever won out of Dimke or Graham.

I still don't know why we need Lorig at all.

Me either as Johnson has more than looked the part, but Payton loves his proven players and doesn't like putting full faith in the youngins(barring a select few).

That's also why I have a feeling Graham is the guy we are bringing back.

You are probably right but I hope your not, not that Graham is bad, we have just got to find a young kicker we can stick with for awile and I really hope Dimke is it.

Obviously shopped. Lorig died before he even signed with us. Yes Loomis is signing dead guys. Remember when everyone thought Butler was a real living person? That one pic of "him" and Rob was really Rob's personal "arse"istant.

Why did we not keep a kicker? It's weird. I thought both played well so to cut both of them is strange.

The reason is in my post. You can't IR someone with the designation to return until tomorrow. Cutting the kicker allows us to keep everyone else we want and hold on to the guy we want to designate until the time comes.

And if one of our kickers gets picked up(doubtful now) then I think they have enough confidence in either guy to go with plan b.

To delay a decision and/or protect a player from being claimed.

It was easy to look at the league kicker situation and know many would be available

I just keep watching this video of Doug Martin in the I-formation, where he follows #41 Lorig for big gains, and I can't help but think what Lorig can do for Robinson/Ingram.

Lorig looks phenomenal blocking in the I-form. And Doug Martin is no fool. He simply follows Lorig where ever he goes because he knows a lane will be open.

I like Johnson, but I just haven't seen this level of blocking from him enough to dismiss a 6-4, 250 pound former TE in Lorig who is a proven blocker and pass catcher.

Lorig is the shite at FB. Hopefully he can come back this season.
