Default 9 NFL Vets Who Might Get Cut

Quote:
3. Xavier Su’a-Filo, LG, Texans

A former second-round pick, Su’a-Filo is yet to justify his lofty draft status on the field. Selected with the 33rd overall pick in 2014, the former UCLA Bruin is yet to show NFL-caliber talent. This preseason, he’s graded negatively in every game, giving up a sack and three hurries in 51 snaps. His issues in pass protection are not new, unfortunately; Su’a-Filo ranked 62nd out of 72 tackles in pass-blocking efficiency last season, giving up four sacks, seven hits, and 15 pressures over 325 snaps. Although running with the first team currently, Oday Aboushi (a late-round 2013 selection) is making a strong push for his job.
I doubt they cut him since they're so thin at OL, but boy, this is looking like a serious miss on a high draft pick.
