Well see what happens

Rey · 08-30-2012

I'm more confused about some spots now than I was at first.

Bleed_Blu_Red · 08-30-2012

Like Grimes like a motha i dont think he makes the cut. due to alot of spots being locked up coming into and going into the season into the season and doubt we go 4deep at RB hope and pray we can keep him on the PS

I think I'm still going to have grimes on my roster. I have to see think about it.

I think I'm going to take Norris off my roster though. I just don't know. The coaches have some tough decisions to make and they gotta make them fast.

Bleed_Blu_Red · 08-30-2012

Ya, I think we will keep Norris due to the fact kubiak will move Casey around and he also accounts as one of are Te's

If I understand correctly it has been changed and extended.

Of course I heard that on the radio so that info could be wrong.

No changes to the PUP rule - only the IR and trade deadline changes.

The Pencil Neck · 08-30-2012

Damn. Some great stuff out there tonight. Here's my final attempt at it:

Offense: 24
QB: Schaub, Yates, Beck
RB: Foster, Tate, Forsett
FB: Casey, Norris
WR: AJ, KW, KMart, Jean, Posey, Holiday
TE: OD, GG
LT: DB, Gardner
LG: Smith
C: Myers, Jones
RG: Caldwell, Brooks
RT: Newton

Defense: 26
DE: Smith, Watt, Jamison, Crick
NT: Cody, Earl
OLB: Barwin, Reed, Braman, Mercilus, Bryant
ILB: Cush, James, Dobbins, Alexander
CB: JJo, Jackson, McCain, Harris, McMannis, Carmichael
S: Manning, Quin, Demps, Nolan, Pleasant

LS: Weeks
P: Jones
K: Graham

--- PS ---
NT - Fangupo
TE - Brock, Supernaw
FB - Smith
QB - Keenum
DE - King
LB - Loiseau
RB - Grimes

I think Beck solidified his spot and Keenum's going to PS.

I think Grimes didn't flash enough and is going to PS.

I liked what I saw from Ben Jones playing BOTH Center and Guard. He handed one guy off to the tackle (Menkins, iirc) and the tackle wasn't there and that almost got Case killed but I don't think that was his fault.

Norris is an enigma. He looked good blocking. I don't know if that's enough to make the squad. He's got to catch the ball and his hands looked like Vickers's hands looked last year. And that's not a good thing.

I just can't cut Bryant. I don't know if he makes the team but he's been bringing it all preseason. I keep him.

I've got too many DBs. I think Keo played himself off the squad and I think Pleasant played himself on. Carmichael looked much better this game and I'm putting him in and cutting Ball... but honestly, I'm afraid Ball's going to make the team.

No way we don't make a spot for Tri-cycle now.

Rey · 08-30-2012

Qb: schaub, Yates
Fb: Casey
Rb: foster, Tate, Forsett, grimes
Wr: the obvious 5
TE: od, Grahm, Brock

Totally agree on Mitch King liked him at Iowa but was unsure if we would put him on the PS. I would replace Fangupo with him for sure just not sure he will make the cut and I kept Fang because of Cody's back and at worst he can be a big body and suck up blocks

I assume he's going on IR. As soon as I saw the injury, I figured he was on IR and now reports are starting to trickle in that he is.

Sorry about that Bleed Blu Red.

Arent we all ?!!? Thats half the fun of the prediction ....

I tell you , its been a fun offseason to be a Texan fan , much better than those dismal years of 6-10 or 2-14. Many of the guy's who get cut , especially from the secondary will end up on someone's roster.

Gonna be a tough decision with Grimes and Forsett .... they are loaded in the backfield.

DJ Bryant .... Hell of a find by Smith. Dont think there is room for him on the 53 but I sure hope he makes it to the PS.

Trycycle sticks , if not he's on someone elses roster and I personally chew Gary a new one. He's just too explosive not to keep. Damn did he really run half speed from the 30 and still score ?!

CB - Ive got to go with McManis and Ball over Carmichael.

Not sure they hold onto Keo .... Pleasant probably makes the PS.

Alexander probably sticks around .... at least until Sharpton is elegible to return.

Nading somehow stays .... He's too versatile , ILB/OLB and a very good ST player.

Man there will be some tough cuts made tonight ....

I didnt get to watch the second half tonight .... My DVR cut off right after the kickoff. Anyone know where I can find a full replay ???

Fangupo - He held up at the point of attack .... Just dont know if there is room for a 3rd DT/NT on this roster when they only play two downs.

speedfreek · 08-30-2012

Now the waiting game. 24 hours to see who makes the team, another 24 hours to see which players are still available for the practice squad.

Nail biters all.

Suddenly o-line looks like a bigger need than WR did a few months ago..

I don't like what I see in Harris...to me, they should be looking at him hard.
