The Cuts to 55 are gonna be brutal!

I could probably find this out on another post but I am way to lazy to read through threads.

so...

when are cuts?

complete waste of a thread huh?
 
We could try and work Dayne at fullback some and only carry one FB and use Dayne if needed? That would open up another position

I'm torn if I keep Wynn, McCleon, Bray, Orr I'm thinking Orr stays as something... I have guys like Barber and Abbate that make the team as ST guys where we don't really require the depth. Who fills those last three spots? Who do you remove from my list and replace?

Practice squad guys are:
Zebransky, White, Mitchell
 
Even though I am at work already, it is too early for me to think. However I think we MAY carry one more OG, OT and WR than what is on your list.

Our final roster spots could also come down to what kind of players are waved in the final cuts off of other teams. We could pick up an extra DB if a good (for us) gets cut.

:fans:
 
You think Dreessen gets in ahead of Pittman as LS?

personally think they'll carry one more DB - you can never have enough of those when you play the Colts twice.
 
It's going to be a shame to lose Frye and Brisiel. I think Pittman stays as longsnapper; Kubiak has almost come right out and said that. I think we'll probably keep Orr; he plays ST, he plays LB, and he can be used as a situational rusher. I think White stays in the center mix.

The only reason I think he might keep Dreessen is that he's a "tweener" as Kubiak says. He can do both LS and TE. It's one more spot that they can use on somebody else.

And I thing White goes to the PS. I hope we've found our future. I know McKinney still has several years in him and Flannigan at least a few more but I'd love to have our line solidified for the next 10 years. (assuming Spencer ever makes it back.)

I really can't argue much with this, except I think Gado has an equal shot at making the roster as Lundy, and I think Mathis is ahead of both Davis and Anderson on the WR depth chart.

Currently my roster is at 54.

-Between Pittman and Flannagan I don't know who'd I'd let walk. Preferably it'd be Flannagan.

-Anderson makes the team over McCardell and Bethel

- Orr Makes the team for his pass rushing

I'd have to say I agree pretty much 100% with this.
