CB (5): Springs, Rogers, Smoot, Torrence, Tryon
S (5): Landry, Doughty, Moore, Horton Hamilton
SP (3): Albright, Brooks, Suisham

ChickenMonkey was off by one spot: He had McMullen as the 6th WR but Hamilton made it as the 5th Safety. (A special teams pick - the New Ade).

For all the griping that some people (and a certain reporter) seem to do about our lack of depth and youth on the lines, it looks to me like we are in ok shape. Heyer is a future starter, Rinehart is a future starter and Geisinger has been solid as an undrafted rookie. Now I wouldn't want to trot them out on opening day, but if they can provide depth (which is what backups do) we are doing ok. On the DL, chances are that Monty and Golston will be starting next year, Evans is a contributor and LoAx is a young player as well. I'd like to see a stud emerge from that group but at least we've got some youngsters in the rotation.

I agree with most of it except I would put Crummy ahead of Geisinger. Erasmus James ahead of Evans and Boschetti and Richardson ahead of Tryon.

Has Geisinger done anything....well I mean that I haven't heard or see him play much. Just curious.

I'm with you on Crummey over Gesinger and I kept Boschetti. Richardson got burnt badly on the screen to Smith, so I cut him......he has still had a better pre-season than Tryon, so I'll give you that. I haven't seen enough out of Erasmus James, so Demetric is staying. With Taylor's injury though, we may see them both...or Chris Wilson. I'm glad Saturdays over. It's time to move on.

Cartwright WILL NOT be a surprise cut. They just signed him to a new deal. He is the KR and a very good back. There is no way he is getting cut.

[Ruhskins]

(Someone mentioned in that repeat thread that Thomas and Kelly should be cut)

Ok people, we can't cut the WRs that we picked on the 2nd round, the picks that we got from our 1st round pick. Otherwise we would have wasted that 1st round for no reason. For those of us that were making an argument for the team to trade for a veteran (like Chad Johnson or Anquan Boldin) or go aggresively after a veteran wideout (ahem Randy Moss) I think our point has been made. Kelly and Thomas are not going to help this year (I hope I'm wrong) and they need to develop. Hence we have the same WR group, which did not get a TD into the middle of the season. So we have to eat it and keep this guys to develop them and hopefully they will be ready to go in a year or two, and hope that something else gets our defense going.

Kelly will be put on the PUP list and placed back on the team in 6 weeks

Is that a guess or do you have some info. on it?

If that happens, it frees up a space on the 53 man roster right? i.e. Kelly wouldn't count until he's brought off pup.

That would make sense & allow them to keep someone on the bubble. Kelly might end up on IR before it's all over with. Not a good sign that his knee swelled up again.

Zorn said they need to develop a plan for Kelly, so wouldn't be surprised to see him go
on PUP or IR. As LaVar said on the postgame show...he wouldn't advise Kelly to make any large purchases.

Yeah, I saw that. I hope and I think that Lavar was reading too much into Zorn's comments, but it did worry me.

[MTK]

LaVar's comment is pretty dumb. If he's trying to say Kelly could be cut he must be high.

[redskins4lif]

I dont know about you guys but after watching alfread fincher play last night i think he deserves a roster spot cause he was on fire last night and most of the preseason for im concerned

[doughtydoubter]

solid picks but i would trade gesinger to the ps and maybe keep fincher on the roster.
i do think cartwright could be cut...i know people are in awe of him but...it would free up space...for....ricky manning?
