Jake Ballard tore both ACLs, and New England still snatched him from New York. The flip side to what I said is that Ballard hasn't been a big contributor to the patriots since coming off the injury.

I heard on 1067 the fan that Adam carriker has officially been put on IR. I couldn't find that on twitter, can anyone confirm?

so 3 IR and 4 suspended/PUP to start the season?

that's a lot of free roster spots, since all 7 are in the top 53.


and i don't think we're that desperate, but kenny phillips was let go at S if they like him over whoever our #4 is right now. meh.

If KP had anything left he wouldn't get cut from terrible secondary.

My bet is Williams over Royster.

Good bet. Morris - helu - williams. Awesome. Royster is as good as gone imo.
Seems like we came through the first three games and offseason pretty much healthy. Been so busy at work i am alittle out of the loop. Sucks about Crawford, how is Hank?

I know the Panthers cut Bruce Campbell, athletic tackle that the raiders drafted out of Maryland a couple years ago. If i remember correctly some people wanted us to draft him on here.

edit: I think he was injured that is why he was cut.

so 5 depth players stashed on IR, at least 1 on pup and the suspensions (t jackson ??, r jackson/jenkins 4 games)

I think we've figured out how to keep a 63 man roster... go us?

i agree. that said, our safety position is pretty terrible too.

This. I doubt he would decrease the amount of talent at that position........maybe losing PT to some of these young bucs might motivate him.

I guess the big question to me is do you keep a "specialist" on the 53 man roster JUST to return punts? Or do you go with a Moss/Hall or someone like that in order to use that extra slot somewhere else. I mean Brandon Banks was really a "specialist". They tried to use him on offense, but he was really a decoy and not very effective. Chris Thompson would be a 4th RB or really a "specialist" as a PR. I agree with a lot of you guys in that if the Redskins put him on the PS, he will get claimed. Can you afford to tie up a Roster spot for him. If you do, I say let him return Kicks as well.

[FRPLG]

Thompson is on the squad...whether he returns punts right off the bat or not I don't know but they wont risk losing him.
