My results:



It was tough. I kept more in the OG/C spot than I normally would. 2 starting guards, 1 starting, center, 1 swing guys for both spots, and Jones has experience at RT his first two years, and that's why I kept him over a guy like Weaver.

Looks good. But I think Meachem makes the team.

I think your picks are good as well but I am switching Griffin for McCown.

I tried for about ten minutes. This is brutal. I want to keep way too many (mostly to keep them away from Atlanta).

Salute to Mickey for a very talented roster!

Your 53 looks pretty good, but I keep counting 52 unless the PUP Cheta Ozougwu is counting towards the 53.

WR - I agree with your 5 selected however the fifth spot will either be Toon or Meachem as Colston, Cooks, Stills and Morgan are all locked in.

RB/FB - I don't think Lorig is living up to his expectations, but we will have to carry a full back so I don't know.

OT/OG - Bryce Harris keeps underperforming and Grubbs and Evans haven't been 100%, so it may open the door for Kelemente.

CB - My only concern is that Bailey may not be ready and If Lewis has a high ankle sprain we may need to carry another CB, or a sixth safety.

So - if it was only 52, I'm pulling for UDFA Pierre Warren.

The Pierre Warren Marcus Ball decision was the hardest for me.

I also only counted 52 active. Also Chetta was waived and put on IR(2 days after being put on PUP).

Good post. However, I would replace Cadet with Strozier and bump Reddick or Knox for 3rd QB McCown

I have a question about Andy Tanner. Isn't this the last year that he can try out for an NFL team.

if so, why the frick did he again stay and tryout for the saints???

just saying...yeah, he was a strong candidate and probably would have made the team last season if he wouldn't have gotten hurt. But, this season, he had no shot, imo. Dude, do your homework and go tryout somewhere else!

I suspect we will have a few guys with "a knee" before final cuts. Guys like Sunseri and Pierre Warren could find themselves on the PUP. Powell and Fortt are almost guaranteed to be on IR, imo.

Post game 3 and recent cuts bump.

I just tried it again, with some noticeable changes.

I swapped Griffin for McCown. I think we can get Griffin to the PS.

I put Stills on IR, with the designation to return. It's better that he get's completely healthy and help us for a latter season push.

For some reason, Eric Martin was on the roster.

Our WR's are not ideal, but Graham is going to take a lot of catches, and you'll have the backs getting their fair share.

The running game starting off strong is key.

It will be nice when they go with the 63 man roster.

Is the reason for this because of the eventual adding of games to the regular season?
