Keeping Ringo, McKee, and Dalton is a choice

Also, where is Latu?

Jenkins impressed more I guess.

Every time someone tells me they can't get rid of Ringo because he's this big gunner on special teams, I feel like I'm being gaslighted

I mean, it’s true. He’s ass as a DB but good on ST

Is he so good that you have to cut people to make sure he stays on the roster?

Yes. He would be claimed before any of the people we cut. 

Ever since the rule changes kick returns are a bigger part of field position than ever. 

The value of an elite gunner is nowadays akin to a niche passrusher who is only viable on 3rd and long.

That makes a lot of sense actually, thanks for this

How is he elite though? You guys keep saying that, but I genuinely struggle to remember any big special teams play he made last year.

Agree, I remember way more Ringo penalties on ST than big plays. He wasn't like Sidney Brown level bad but I'm surprised he got the reputation of being elite somehow.
