A lower round draft pick has to meet one of two criteria, come in and play a role, or sit and learn to provide some depth down the road. if you can determine that the player won't fulfill either than cut him. Its OK to miss on a pick, but giving up on 4 picks before they play their first meaningful game is a failure on the front office. Cutting them and bouncing them back and forth on the practice squad is just puzzling.
Those four picks were approx #202, 203, 242 and 244 out of approx 250 picks. We're not talking about picks in the top 100 or even 150
