I think you guys are missing an important point here regarding roster moves this time of the year; if Rex or, God forbid, McNabb goes down you have to bring in a guy that's familiar with the system in a pinch.

So even if Beck doesn't make the squad (ditto J.Galloway), they've spent sufficient time in the system and can get in there on short notice and suit up. I think in cases like this, the coaches are preparing with one eye down the road in the event of untimely injuries.
