Only five more days to really fight for a roster spot.

Reality- 460 guys will be cut September 1, but less than 10 of them will be picked up and on rosters Sept 6

There doesn't seem to be much time between the 75 and the 53 cuts. We are looking at a crowded house at DB, and either McCown or Griffin are gone, unless a mystery ailment hits Grayson.

I'll never forget Buddy Ryan claiming that even his mother could decided that 1st round of cuts.

So the earliest we'll see Byrd is after September 5th.

I wonder if our cuts will make other rosters.....I also wonder if we will find some rejects that we will bring in at a position of weakness?

Danno · 08-29-2015, 05:21 PM
