So, there has already been a semi-surprise cut in Alex Hall, who will probably have 42 sacks for the Giants this year.
Who else goes and stays?
QB - Set unless Vick shoots somebody. Then they sign Jeff Garcia.
RB - Do Martell Mallett and Eldra Buckley have a chance to beat out Charles Scott? Would the team cut Mike Bell to go with youth?
TE - Even the 4th guy (Rucker) is supposed to be capable, but the team will obviously keep no more than 3. Will HOF Ingram stay healthy and make it?
WR - Would the team cut Mr. Kendra Wilkinson if they like the young guys enough?
OL - Christ, I don't think they have enough guys worthy of making this team. Do they only keep 7, and maybe try to poach a bench guy from another team?
DL - Locks, barring injury, include Cole, Bunkley, Patterson, Graham, and Tapp. I doubt that they cut Te'O because he was drafted too early. Parker is probably too valuable, even if they want to go young. That's 7 guys with only two true DT's. Dixon is probably the favorite to be the 3rd DT, but the team wants Laws to prove he's not a bust. So, who gets pushed to make room for guys like Sapp and Owens? There are a lot of numbers issues here. I almost forgot about Victor Abiamiri, because he's highly forgettable.
LB - Locks are Sims and Stewart. Fokou and Jordan are basically in also. If they go with a lot of numbers at the DL, they may only be able to keep 5 LB's. Keenan Clayton was the earlier pick, but Jamar Cheney might have the better pedigree.
DB - Kind of like OL, the depth is bad. Samuel, Hobbs, Hanson, Mikell, and Allen are locks. Doubt they cut Lindley. Macho Harris and Quinton Demps likely figure in, but Demps could be jettisoned if he doesn't have his head on straight. Kurt Coleman has impressed early but was drafted late enough to possibly clear waivers and make the PS. I cry every time I hear about Geoff Pope or Dmitri Patterson "making a push."
The team has a few too many rookies this year that they won't want to expose. There will definitely be at least one or two phantom injuries sending these guys to IR.
obviously crazy early to do this but i work for the government

Kapadia's update. Makes sense. (http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/Projecting_the_53-man_roster.html)
I agree with most of his, but I think Chaney makes the team and one of Macho/Demps gets cut. Jamar Chaney won't make it to the PS.
AQ Shipley and Chad Hall, ex-Eagles.
AQ probably goes to the PS
At least Shipley has more free time to come post here again.
Hall will be a PS'er but he'll end up getting picked up i think.
Looking like Demps is gone. Not a big loss.
Quentin's on his way.....to the U/E office
lol
Ingram, Macho, Jeff Owens were cut.
Macho and Demps is interesting.
Edit: Hall, Norwood, Ingram, Shipley, Reynolds, Tupou, Moncur, Owens, White, Harris and Demps.
wait...macho AND demps were cut?
good they suck. good farging riddance
They kept Jorrick Colvin? Ok.
They're still at 55, so he could be one of the last cuts
McLane said Demps threw his stuff into his Mercedes and drove off without comment
Would they really only go with 5 WRs? I think Baskett and Washington both make the team unless a WR they like better gets cut and they cut either then.
Right now I think it is one of Dunlap/Andrews and Colvin/Parker.
Schefter says Baskett was kept and Washington is gone
farging lame. Why does Baskett continue to make this team? He sucks as a STer too and blew the SB for the Colts.
One play does a career make.
Apparently the trade of Andrews may not have been turned in before the 6pm deadline... Maybe the team will have to cut someone else?
The Eagles cut MJG. Also traded Tracy White to NE for 2012 pick.
Roseman says Nick Cole starting RG.
MJG will be re-signed. And Nick Cole sucks. Wells probably just has to learn the playbook.
Quote from: FastFreddie on September 04, 2010, 07:09:33 PM
MJG will be re-signed. And Nick Cole sucks. Wells probably just has to learn the playbook.
So does MJG. Hopefully Wells is starting by week 2 or 3.
They did resign Jean-Giles today and Jeff Owens is the first addition to the practice squad. I like him I think he has a shot at being a pretty solid player.
So as of today, they have 53:
QB (3): Kolb, Vick, Kafka
RB (3): McCoy, Bell, Buckley
FB (1): Weaver
WR (5): Jackson, Maclin, Avant, Baskett, Cooper
TE (2): Celek, Harbor
OL(10): Peters, Herremans, Jackson, Cole, Justice, Howard, Wells, McGlynn, Jean-Gilles, Dunlap
DL(10): Cole, Bunkley, Patterson, Graham, Parker, Laws, Dixon, Tapp, Te'o-Nesheim, Barnes
LB (7): Bradley, Sims, Jordan, Gaither, Fokou, Clayton, Chaney
DB (9): Samuel, Hobbs, Mikell, Allen, Hanson, Lindley, Coleman, Patterson, Calvin
ST (3): Akers, Rocca, Dorenbos
12 rookies and a starting QB who might as well be a rookie.
I think Cooper will be moving up on that list, could end up in front of Avant and behind Maclin.

Fixed.
AQ is our Papale.
Is that all we know now? Did any of the others (a la Jeff Owens) get picked up by another team?
(I just saw that Owens was indeed added as well. But that's the only additional update I saw.)
(http://youknowjack.fivewells.com/oh-indeed-thumb-780x487.png)
TE Garrett Mills added to PS. Adios forever, HOF Ingram.
i still cant believe there are only three safties on the roster and two of them have never played an nfl game
Championship!
QuoteWR Jeremy Williams Added To Practice Squad
There are now seven players on the practice squad, as the Eagles have signed WR Jeremy Williams, originally a rookie free agent signing of the San Diego Chargers in 2010.
Williams (6-0, 203) was released as part of the team's final roster cutdown on September 4. The 23-year-old starred collegiately at Tulane, earning honorable mention All-Conference USA honors as a senior in 2009 after recording 84 receptions for 1,113 yards and seven touchdowns. He finished his career ranked fourth in school history in receptions (197) and receiving yards (2,807), and seventh in touchdown catches with 19.
In the Chargers' final preseason game, Williams returned a punt 93 yards for a touchdown and caught four passes for 42 yards.
Williams joins tight end Garrett Mills, center A.Q. Shipley, offensive lineman Dallas Reynolds, wide receiver Chad Hall, running back Martell Mallett and defensive tackle Jeff Owens on the practice squad.
Dallas Reynolds needs to go.
Why? The Cowboys just signed Philadelphia Jones.

I knew they'd add him. They were after him in the draft the year he came out
Yeah, they had their eyes on Jorrick Calvin also, but opted not to take him in the 6th round.
You were all worried who would get the last spot. Admit it.
QuoteEagles Fill Out Practice Squad
The Eagles announced on Monday night that they have signed safety Chip Vaughn to the practice squad.
Vaughn, a fourth-round draft choice of New Orleans in 2009, was released by the Saints as part of their final roster cut down on Saturday. He spent his entire rookie season on the Injured Reserve list. The 24-year-old Vaughn (6-2, 221) saw action in all four preseason games for the Saints this summer and contributed 12 tackles.
A two-year starter at Wake Forest, Vaughn finished his collegiate career with 257 tackles, three interceptions, 22 passes defensed, one forced fumble and four fumble recoveries. In his senior season of 2008, the Fairfax, VA, native earned first-team All-ACC honors when he had 87 tackles, two fumble recoveries, and two interceptions.
With the signing of Vaughn, the Eagles eight-man practice squad is set. WR Chad Hall, RB Martell Mallett, G/C Dallas Reynolds, C A.Q. Shipley, and DT Jeff Owens were re-signed by the Eagles on Sunday, while TE Garrett Mills, WR Jeremy Williams and Vaughn were added Monday

Chip Vaughn was a beast at Wake, I thought at times he was better than Curry and Alphonso Smith on that D who both went much higher than he did. He has good measurables too, but was far more of a hitter than a coverage safety.

Michael Lewis?
If he's 6-2, 221 I doubt he'll play safety for the Eagles.
Probably plan to convert him to DE. What about his motor? Does he have a high motor, dammit? Is he a high motor guy? Need fastballs. Motorized fastballs.
haha motor balls.

last two spots could be filled by someone i have making the roster like a vandervelde and thorton....depending on what happens with trades and signing players from other teams...youd think they have to sign one or two offensive lineman who get released around the league if they think it can improve the depth at OL which is horrible...if that doesnt happen than maybe its dj jones and a cut from another squad....ps is really hard to predict as you dont know the balance a team is looking for as far as players they think can play one day versus positions to fill a scout team
I thought you were on the record as saying Polk wouldn't clear to the PS.
Also, it's nice to see Brackett make both lists. Doing Penn State proud.
im trying to be positive this year
My 53..
QB - Vick, Foles, Edwards (3)
RB - Shady, Brown, Lewis, Polk (4)
FB - Havili (1)
WR - Jackson, Maclin, Avant, Johnson, Hall, Gilyard (6)
TE - Celek, Harbor (2)
OL - Dunlap, Bell, Herremans, Kelly, Kelce, Reynolds, Watkins, Vandervelde, Mathis (9)
DL - Babin, Jenkins, Landri, Cole, Graham, Cox, Dixon, Tapp, Hunt, Curry (11)
LB - Ryans, Kendricks, Jordan, Rolle, Matthews, Chaney (6)
CB - Nnamdi, DRC, Boykin, Marsh, Hanson (5)
S - Allen, Coleman, Jarrett, Thomas (4)
ST - Dorenbos, Henery, McBriar (3)
what about riley cooper?
Maybe I'm the only one, but I don't see why he should be a lock to make the team. I've always liked Gilyard, and if I'm Andy, I take him over Riley and his flowing blonde locks.
I'd guess Dixon is gone ($2 mil salary with no cap hit) and maybe keep Atogwe even though Jarrett probably played his way into a spot by default. He's the only one that is more of SS but if you keep enough maybe someone else will pan out better since SS is the D's weak link. I also think Hanson sticks this year until Boykin learns the position. I hope Cooper is gone. I can also see Tapp gone ($2.6 million without a cap hit) unless they are thinking Patterson might be back after pup.
I dont see how you can keep OJ. He wasn't healthy last year, and he has failed to stay healthy in the time he's been a Eagle. I dislike Jarrett as much as the next guy, but I can't justify dropping him to keep a guy who will be on IR by week4.
agree on hanson...its too risky to go with a rookie as your third corner...boykin is clearly the future will be starting by the end of the year but for now you need hanson as a safety net
otagwe is gone because of the hammy
gilyard is awful...he was a fourth rounder that the rams (worst wr's ever) of all teams cut bait with in his rookie year and didnt even play last year....if cooper is gone and i dont think he is then mcnutt gets the nod
also dh while it hasnt officially happened mcbriars agent has said that mcbriar is cut...unless you arent buying that and still think he gets the nod
no, I just don't like Henry. I was a huge fan of Gilyards in college - then again, I was also a supporter of Mike Gasperson.
Oh, and I meant to keep Hanson. Sorry BHughes, you've been cut.
Caplan is saying that Joselio is gone
I told you so.
you have him on your 53
Caplan also says Hall is out
Clayton and Chase Ford cut
Here's the list so far..
Hanson, Clayton, Gilyard, Hall, McNutt, Thomas, Washington, Vallos, Atogwe, Brackett, Rau, Moten, Trotter.
I liked Thomas, and was really hoping he'd make the squad.
S Oshiomogho Atogwe Veteran safety could not shake off nagging hamstring injury.
TE Brett Brackett Former college receiver still a passing game threat, still raw as a blocker.
LB Keenan Clayton Athletic 2010 fourth-round pick caught up in the numbers game at linebacker.
DT Landon Cohen Signed by the team yesterday for help against the Jets.
TE Chase Ford Miami product still a promising prospect as an all-around tight end.
WR Mardy Gilyard Opened eyes with his touchdown receptions during the preseason, caught up in tough position.
WR Chad Hall Versatile weapon who has shown he belongs in the league. Still practice squad eligible.
CB Joselio Hanson Veteran nickel cornerback released on cut day for second straight year.
FB Emil Igwenagu Stanley Havili wins the fullback job, though Igwenagu impressed with versatility.
T D.J. Jones Solid swing tackle stuck behind King Dunlap, Demetress Bell and Dennis Kelly.
WR Marvin McNutt Rookie sixth-round pick flashed in Training Camp.
LB Adrian Moten Failed to establish himself behind top six linebackers.
DT Ollie Ogbu Acquired from Colts on the first day of Training Camp. Still practice squad eligible.
LB Ryan Rau Former tryout player opened eyes with impressive play in final two preseason games.
DE Monte Taylor Talented pass rusher stuck at the team's deepest position.
S Phillip Thomas Undrafted rookie who impressed against the Browns. Not quite ready for prime time.
DT Frank Trotter Workmanlike defensive tackle.
OL Steve Vallos Worked way up to second-team center, appears to have ceded job to Dallas Reynolds.
OL Brandon Washington Sixth-round pick still adjusting to Howard Mudd's techniques.
Nice info Sunny. :yay
i just copy and pasted it but thanks

id be suprised if thomas isnt on the ps if no one else signs him....or maybe he finally becomes a taterskin
hanson must be completely done for them to put al their eggs in boykins basket
Chad Hall sucks
I personally cannot stand Chad Hall. He'll never be Danny Woodhead, so let's end the experiment.
chad hall is a "pro" and id be very suprised if he isnt on the ps scout team this year
Not one surprise. Hanson will be back after week 1.
Quote from: FastFreddie on August 31, 2012, 02:46:34 PM
Not one surprise. Hanson will be back after week 1.
he could easily sign with someone else...probably 50/50....i do agree that they still may bring him back....maybe by moving a DL for a pick
Supposedly Kafka is being shopped:

Quote from: Diomedes on August 31, 2012, 06:51:16 AM
I disagree. Foles provides all the cover he needs on the "quarterback guru" front. Edwards over Kafka.
Agree with this. I think they trade Kafka for a late round pick, probably a 7th and hang onto Edwards. At least with Edwards you have a veteran to fall back on. Kafka's fate was sealed as soon as he was injured.
edwards in kafka out
so that makes 54....two left and polk is still alive
I liked the little bit that I saw from Kafka. He should be a politician though, perfect name for it.
Senator Kafka.
McBriar still on the roster.
Get rid of Chas Molasses.
oh yeah forgot they havent officially cut him yet....so its mcbriar and kafka to get to 53
polk is in
which also means trevard lindley made it....thats a real suprise
yeah why not hang onto Hanson and get rid of Lindley who's a bum
I'm thinking they just do what they did last year with hanson
Quote from: SD on August 31, 2012, 04:08:38 PM

i can only think that hes super toasted...i mean he was really bad in preseason
i understand the theory that they could bring him back and dont necessarily disagree that it might happen but if you wanted him that much why not just cut trevard who no one is picking up under any circumstance
And there he goes. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/08/31/eagles-dump-kafka/ (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/08/31/eagles-dump-kafka/).
pft is either trying to practice better journalism these days and not jump the gun or they arent quite what they used to be as that news is two hours old
andy:
Quote"There was great competition at the quarterback position. That's what football and training camp is all about. In the end, we had to make the difficult decision to let Mike Kafka go. Mike is a class act, a student of the game and a great person and I think he'll have no problem finding a job in the National Football League very soon. On the other hand, I'm proud of the way Trent Edwards conducted himself since the early days of the offseason workouts. He had to fight for everything he earned this summer. He improved each and every day and made the most of every opportunity."
So that means two left to cut right?
should be one more - mcbriar
unless my math is off
they aren't PUPing anderson, that leaves 2 more, right?
if they definitely arent doing that with him then its two more
if they drop a real talent like polk or even one of the DE's for a special teamer coming off a blown knee im gonna pissed
Glad Edwards made it. Earned his way onto the team the old fashioned way. And I'm cool with a veteran checkdowner being one of the backup QBs.
One of the punters will surely be cut, I'm not worried about that. Since the latest info is that Anderson isn't going on the PUP, that leaves one more. They are probably just seeing which lineman is willing to take the steepest pay cut. I wouldn't assume that Lindley made the cut yet, either, 5 CBs is typical. Hopefully the Birds see it our way and don't cut Polk.
McBriar's wife tweeted (per the Philly writers) congrats to Chas Henry.

yeah anderson for lindley or even hughes would be fine
keep an eye on havili...wouldnt shock me if he was cut to keep polk and be able to add someone else...you have to believe that they are looking for a safety on the waiver wire
McLane says it's official that McBriar is gone. Also says that Trent Edwards believes that Foles is Vick's Week 1 backup.
One more cut to come, unless they do decide to PUP Anderson after all.
SS is the only area that is scarey, along with maybe the Oline. And by Oline I mean LT,C and if any starter goes down. And also if a starting corner goes down. Then of course there's the Vick question. As good as Foles has looked he would still need a year before he's ready for prime time. And the punter situation could be a disaster. But the Dline looks like it could be pretty damn good. Of course Juan will be calling the D's plays though.

Keep an eye on Troy Nolan - he is a safety who was cut by Houston today. I could see the birds putting in a waiver claim.

not that vandervelde is any good but man they must really love them some polk....when was the last time andy cut two lineman over a fourth RB.....i love it
Slow your roll...I'm not the guys cheerleader or anything but I liked him when I watched the replays of the Browns games.
I dig them keeping Polk too. I'm not sold on Lewis so having Brown and Polk as fall backs is nice.
i just like them keeping the most talent...a high potential rb....rather than the upstart workmanlike DT or the salt of the earth OL
howie is slowly but surely making me a convert
I am a little disappointed that Cliff Harris, Phillip Thomas and Marvin McNutt didn't do better. Those were three who I was pretty high on going into camp.
I like the make up of the roster - each year there are one or two guys who are on the team who bug the shtein out of me that they're on it...the main one this year is Riley Cooper.
harris pulled a knucklehead off the field
i really like thomas as well but he was hurt which set him back...ill be disappointed if he doesnt end up on the ps
mcnutt is a black riley cooper he was atually a guy i had on my list before the draft took place and i loved where they got him but i never expected much...another ps candidate who could shine in a year or two as a red zone threat/possesion guy
Did they ever say what led to Harris getting cut?
Agreed on McNutt but still...Riley Cooper annoys me.
If Kelce gets hurt they have to play Reynolds at C...he's the only other OL who can play there

do you need a third center?....i mean the offensive line depth is at an all time low....it is what it is reynolds is the back up center
I know they don't release it but wondered if one of the beat guys dug up some dirt...
Don't really need three C's but I'd be more comfortable with a true C as the #2.
i mean i would to....but like i said the ol depth is catastrophic...if any starting OL goes down for a long period of time or sucks they are in huge trouble

i just like them keeping the most talent...a high potential rb....rather than the upstart workmanlike DT or the salt of the earth OL
howie is slowly but surely making me a convert
I love that they kept the upside skill players, but I can totally see them getting less that 100 touches combined (Lewis included) with Reid at the controls. I'd like to see a three-headed thing develop as the year progresses. If one of those two can really come on strong, it could have the effect of drastically extending Shady's career.
oh i have no delusions about how much playing time they are getting...its going to be virtually none...in fact i half expect them to release polk before the browns game...but for now i cant believe what im seeing and for once its in a good way
20 hours ago he had joselio making the eagles roster and now sheil kapadia is writing an article that goes "inside" the decision to have boykin over hanson as the eagle slot corner
Trevard Lindley cut.
Unsure as to who will be taking his spot.
Vandervelde claimed by Tampa
DJ Jones claimed by Giants
Kafka not claimed
Nate Menkin claimed from Houston.
He's from the college football powerhouse of the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor
Rumors that they claimed BJ Cunningham from Miami too...big WR. Not sure if for 53 or PS
Goodbye Riley Cooper?

its actually a good d3 school
every once in a while a valley boy will go there, so you do the math on that
Yeah I am familiar with them - its in Belton. I remember when they were starting the program up...I think they began football in 2003?

something like that
for a d3 school they do quite well. but obviously it aint even houston baptist
Ryan Rau - LB
Chase Beeler - C
Marvin McNutt - WR
Emil Igwenagu - FB
Chase Ford - TE
Frank Trotter - DT
All signed to PS
White Reno Mahe aka Chad Hall passed up a PS spot to look for another team who will sign him to the 53
BJ Cunningham added to the PS...
I am a little surprised they didn't IR Brandon Washington. He suffered the concussion early in camp and never really saw the field.
