With all the talent and depth we have

And considering we are short draft picks, at the end of preseason can Vitt just knee some of the players in the balls and say they are injured then stash them on IR for next year? No doubt some of these players like Cadet probably won't clear wires.

OMG that's funny!!! Payton is very good at stashing 1st year players on IR. I wonder how we compare to the rest of the NFL in that category?

Speaking of unknown talent, I wonder if that Laurence Wilson kid makes the 53?

It's a common thing in the NFL, last week of preseason, a bright young up-and-coming kid pinches his finger opening a DVD box in the film room, goes on IR.

That said, in all fairness, I think ya'll are maybe tripping a little bit -- nobody else in the NFL cares or knows about Travares Cadet right now. Appalachian State? Pearl River Community College? He is off peoples' radar. Enjoy him!

Not now, but if he continues to bust ass in pre season he may impress a RB hungry team enough to take a shot at him.

You would be insane if you think that every teams scouting department is looking at every bit of film aviable from the preseason. All good performances where guys stand out will be noted with great interest. In that aspect the NFL is an equal opportunity chance for employment, where you played before doesn't matter as long as you beat the guy ahead of you.

If Cadet continues to produce in the preseason, Ivory may end up out of a job.

Negative. It'll help Cadet's chances of latching on somewhere else. Ivory makes nothing and has a proven track record. He's not going anywhere... this year at least.

If Cadet keeps playing like tonight, he won't last long on the practice squad.
