I live in the seattle area so I know a think or to about what is going on here. Wilson has been strong in the poreseason which means he will likely be #2 to Flynn then see what happenes this season. Remember he was going against 2nd/3rd stringers so its hard to read how good he will be against the top defenses.

The first set is after week 3.(to 75)..then the final cuts are after week 4 (to 53).

CBS Sports had reported it about 4 hrs ago. I guess there is issue in the terms of the lease in St Louis with doing this.

where is the link for this?

My thoughts....Evans got released because he asked to be released. He probably felt the system wasnt good for him and he thought he would be #4 or #5 on the depth chart. Since he signed for a 1 yr deal he wanted to be on a team where he would be a starter and play most downs. teams that could sign him---Dallas, Seattle They traded him---not cut him. There is a big difference. Their approach last year was to see where the season went.

Roosevelt cant do Ps based on my understanding of the PS rules. Easley can.

Some of the practice squad guys wont be our players.... Sessions and Onobun are eligible for the PS I think McGee stays over McKelvin. I think Nesbitt could go to the PS. Prince Miller I think is still eligible for the PS as well. 1 or 2 spots on the Ps are usually kept for the DBs. Caussin is on the PuP list.

Let the Lee Evans debate begin......

Jasper can go to the practice squad

I think Easley is eligable for the PS Roosevelt may get an edge because he can play special teams over the others.

What I forecast in the roster is: OFFENSE: 3 QB, 4 RB, 6 WR, 2 TE, 9 OL DEFENSE: 9 DL, 6LB, 9 DB SPECIAL TEAMS: 4 FOR 52 roster players 1 spot is saved as a wild card player that the team feels they can't get them on the practice squad. There is at least 1 player on the PuP...TE Caussin QB the battle is bvetween Young and Thigpen ...Smith is the 3rd QB. Young has to be a total bust for him not to get the job. There is too much upside with him. RB: White vs Choice vs Dickerson (is he a RB or TE) WR: Easiey, Aiken, Roosevelt, Hagan, Martin, Sessions battle for 1-2 roster spots. Session can make the practice squad TE: Brock, Onobun, Smith, Dickerson 1-2 roster spots OL: Harriston, Pears, Glenn, Wood, Brown , Levitre, Urbik, should be safe The rest in a battle for 2 spots...a G and a T. Some of the players can get to the PS. DL: The only safe ones are Merrimen, Mario, Anderson, Kyle Williams, and Dareus. I think Kelsey could be a cost veteran cut given his salary. DB: 3 safeties are safe (Byrd, Wilson, and Searcy) For CB I think McGee, Gilmore, Aaron Williams are safe. LB: This can get complicated....There ability to play special teams matters. In most defensive sets I see a 4-2-5 or 5-1-5 lineup (using Merriman as a DE who could drop off as a LB then blitz a DB). There are a couple of players they would like to have on the practice squad. Scott is another one where he can play pure safety instead of LB. Sheppard, Scott, and Barnett are safe, I think Carder has an inside shot at making the final 53.

Baring some technical glitch you will not see the game on through direct TV You will get a black/blue screen when the game is supposed to air. You can get some game feeds on NFLN if you have it. From around 7:30pm NFFLN is suppoosed to bounce around the games happeneing then.

NE is believed to be better until they arent. They have a long run at the top of the AFCST so they are assumed the favorite until another comes and crashes the party. Can Buffalo surpass them and he division....yes....whu---the difference is in their noncommon games. New England has Denver and Baltimore....Buffalo has KC and Cleveland.
