The above list contains 53 players that were kept, and 28 players that were cut. I placed six people (represented by a "*") on the practice squad. Here is a list of people that did not appear on the roster due to injuries (
note: some of these are also injury projections. i.e., Gary Baxter is not on the PUP right now.)
Injured Reserve:
Matt Stewart
Jerome Jackson
Physically Unable to Perform List:
LeCharles Bentley
Willie McGinest
Gary Baxter
NFL Suspended List:
Ryan Tucker
Here are all of the changes I made since my first version of this list about two weeks ago (remember, these are all hypothetical, they have not actually happened):
- QB Ken Dorsey has made the team now, because Derek Anderson was traded.
- RB Chris Barclay was added to the roster for special screen plays and special teams play.
- FB Charlies Ali was cut, due to not really being overly impressive.
- WR Syndric Steptoe was cut, but added to the practice squad.
- TE Darnell Dinkins was added to the final roster for blocking abilities all around.
- OL Brent Pousson was added to the cut list (he wasn't signed when my first list came out).
- LB Kris Griffin was added to the roster in favor of LB Jason Short. You can only keep one.
- S Gary Baxter was moved to the PUP list, opening up a roster spot in the secondary.
- CB Jereme Perry took over Baxter's secondary spot.
- CB Brandon McDonald and placed him on the practice squad instead of Therrian Fontenot.
- CB DeMario Minter was removed from the PUP list and placed on the final roster.
Today's game will be the last chance for many of these guys to make an impact. If you have any comments on this roster or changes you would make, please let me know. Then, we'll see who is right when the first cuts are made.
