Tapp getting cut? Wouldn't be surprised. Not a knock on him but might be the odd man out

A few of those DE's can play DT also, like Loewen and Onyemata


I know. I also was counting Onyemata as a DT as it seems the initial plan for him has changed (possibly in part because of Fairley).

So that's 7 not counting him.

I'm still expecting Tapp to be cut for salary reasons, with the possibility to be brought back later.

Thanks for that post GMoney.

Looking at that, I'm guessing 4 from these guys:

John Phillips
Leribeus or Bryce Harris (leaning Leribeus as we may need another tackle with Amrstead out a few more weeks)
Tapp
Devante Harris or Calhoun (leaning Calhoun)

I'm also guessing it came down to Edmunds or Bighill, but with Snead out they wanted an extra skill player.

Overlooked Phillips, but I noticed you didn't list Breaux, who has to be on the initial roster to be eligible to return.

So we need to trim 4.

Yea, if Breaux counts then it's 57.

Was thinking of someone else. Harbor went on IR on Aug. 28.

He was the guy they signed to replace the guy I was thinking of.

I read that yesterday, but wasn't sure if it had been officially listed yet. If true, then we're at 56.

His wiki page says he was put on IR Aug. 29.

May be why I ooverlooked him initially as I thought we were down to 3 TEs (which we are I guess).

2 down 2 to go. Definitely 1 more OL

just for draft memories...

Cardinals released OLB Jarvis Jones with an injury settlement.
The first-round disappointment couldn't revive his career in Cardinals camp. An outside 'backer who can't get after the passer and turns 28 in October, Jones is going to have trouble drumming up interest on the open market.

If you add together our reported Saints moves, with @nick_underhill getting us over the top, Terron Armstead, Stephone Anthony are on 53-man
