VOR Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Sounds good. Except Schouman is close to returning, so Massaquoi is likely out, unless they put Fine on IR, which is very possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robert Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 jefferson also makes it because of versatility and strength against the run. but i have no problem with bryan making the team, very athletic, ps at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VOR Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 beat me to it. costanzo ellison digorgio make the team, corto goes to ps spragan doesnt make it. Oops, forgot about Ellison. I think it's basically a battle between Costanza/Corto/Spragan for a LB spot and Jefferson and Bryan for a DE spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turn Down For Watkins Posted August 29, 2008 Author Share Posted August 29, 2008 Ellison?My fault, I just added Ellison to the LB and droped Corto to the PS, and then I took Mccaskill off of the PS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsaikotic Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 this is the list of players eligible for PS: Matt Baker, Jon Banks, Demetrius Bell, Copeland Bryan, Marcus Buggs, Reggie Corner, Jon Corto, Blake Costanzo, Kennard Cox, Dustin Dickinson, Chris Ellis, Jonathan Evans, Robert Felton, Derek Fine, D.J. Fitzpatrick, Dustin Fox, Christian Gaddis, Bruce Hall, James Hardy, C.J. Hawthorne, Felton Huggins, Fred Jackson, Steve Johnson, Jason Jones, Corey Mace, Scott Mayle, Nevin McCaskill, Teraz McCray, Leodis McKelvin, Xavier Omon, Derek Schouman. Im still asking the question why Spraga?..noone seems to be able to answer besides saying hes a veteran...I havent seen anything from him notable..dosent mean I missed it just saying Ive seen a lot from Costanzo and from Corto but no word from Spragan. Gaddis is our only backup center unless you include Preston, but he cant backup all the spots..Gaddis atleast makes PS...jmo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonInBuffalo Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Since I think Tsaikotic pretty much got it right, I'll only mention what I think might be different. I'll go out on a limb and assume he knows how to count to 53. TE: If Schouman is healthy enough to play opening day or week 2/3 at the latest, I agree. If not, they probably have to put Fine on IR and keep another TE. Denney is probably the emergency TE, but there's only so long you can go stretched that thin. (you must have two people who can line up at TE for short yardage) With the injury problems at OT, there really isn't any backup there available to play TE if needed, except possibly Preston. OL: Whittle hasn't played very much and shown me nothing this preseason. He probably hasn't fully recovered from last season's injury. Cut Whittle, keep Estes, and find somebody off the waiver wire to replace Estes. Assuming Peters reports, request a roster exemption for him for a few weeks, and when you add him to the active roster, move Bell to PS. DL: I would keep Bryan and cut Jefferson. DB: this camp was George Wilson's chance to show that after a season/offseason playing safety, he was ready to move up a notch and at the very least be a capable backup, or possibly even compete for a starting job. He failed the test. If anything he has regressed since last season. Will James was the only player to get reps at nickel with the first unit in any of the preseason games. He's in; Wilson's out. Youboty earns the nickel job over James because of his preseason performance, with James being the backup FS and emergency CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrooklynBills Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I don't see why we would keep 3 QBs on the active roster. Hamden or Baker will go to the PS and effectively be the 3rd QB. JMO. It will probably come down to James, Hamden, Huggins, and Felton for the last spot. I think we would keep James out of all those guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lofton80 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Jenkins is going to be difficult to cut due to his special teams ability. Pretty sure he was one of the gunners on punt coverage last year and he is active on kickoffs as well.

I didnt realize Fines injury was that bad...if it is then I'd say Fine (IR) and we keep Anderson we dont have enough ppl to start throwing away OL-men...if someone good gets cut from another team I say ok on the Whittle cut but I'm not sure we want to do that now I didnt realize James was a safety..I thought he was just CB...if he looked better than wilson I coulkd see that move.
