Good. I'm hoping that trade talks for him resume. Given the drafting of Charles Brown, Jammal should be cheaper to get.

I wonder what we could trade to acquire him. the only players we have i could see them wanting are McIntosh, Landry, and Haynesworth. At this point, i'm opposed to trading Haynesworth, unless the saints would give us Brown and their 2011 1st rounder, which aint happening. If Landry can add a few pounds and play ILB full-time, then i'm ok with trading McIntosh and a mid 2011 pick for Brown but thats it.

I really hope your RB projection ends up being correct. I want some youth at that position. It killed me to see Joe McNight go in the 4th round to another team!

Me too. I hope Riley, who we drafted in the 4th instead, makes us forget about McKnight.

Yes I realize theres 54 but I can't decide who to cut. Candidates to me include Henson, Bryant - Peterson - or Green, and Tryon

Red - Indicates Rookie
Blue - Free Agent Aquisition

Everything really looks to be in place on your depth chart, I'm not sure I'd make any changes. I definitely see all of our draft picks making the team, they were all great value picks. We had a GREAT draft.

I do think we'll have one more RB, probably Torrain, but I'm undecided who to cut. We need to keep all of those linemen. Maybe Green? Maybe Cook or an existing player can be the LS instead of occupying a roster spot just for LS duties. We've been spoiled by having a great dedicated LS over the years with the Red Snapper. Most teams use an existing lineman, TE or LB to perform that duty.

To your dilemma - cut Henson.

[diehard]

We'll need a FA FS.

Updated prediction

[skinsfaninok]

I like it dirt but I think Thomas will win our 2 spot, and Horton starts over Reed.

[Lotus]

Warm Body is my favorite player. I was afraid that he might hold out after the career year that he had last season.

[DynamiteRave]

Am I missing something Dirt, or is Kelly and Thomas missing from the WR lineup?

Missing in what way? Just kidding I use extenz and it works for me....wait.

Right now though I feel like both of them are as good as gone. Kelly can't stay healthy and Thomas isn't nearly consistent or fluid enough to make this team. Thats the one thing I noticed about watching Thomas highlights. Whenever he runs it doesn't seem very smooth and precise.

Keep in mind that I'm not exactly a scout but it seems like Thomas has caught Clinton Portis disease in that he always looks like he's about to fall down. To me that indicates problems in body control and/or footwork (two aspects that are critical in route running, though it does seem to help him with YAC). I would love to be wrong on this but I'm pretty sure that this problem is hurting his ability to run routes.

Thomas starts at 7:25

Actually it would seem we're both wrong on that point. Seems like Kareem Moore is suppose to start opposite Landry. So I'm now changing it to Moore/Doughty at FS and Landry/Horton at SS

I wonder if he's as verstaile as Armstrong. I mean thats a pretty tough name to live up to. Last year Armstrong was a Guard because we had depth problems on the O-Line. Now we have a problem at Receiver so Armstrong decided it was time to slim down and catch passes. Hopefully Warm Body can be like that.

i dont think Thomas has Clinton Portis disease of falling down, the only play in the clip that he looks like he lost his footing was the last catch and he lost his footing in my opinion is because Campbell put too much air on the pass. So that was on Jason who isnt here anymore. All the other catches or runs he had he was diving for the endzone.

[skinsfan_nn]

Time is running out on Kelly. No true gut on Thomas other than he clearly is behind again, which is bad.

You might be close I think most likely one of the two does not make the 53 and right now that would be Kelly. We could possibly even though not likely keep 6 wideouts, I think that will depend on whether we make a move at the position.

It's more of a personal opinion then anything else. I feel like if he has to run straight he's a burner. However even looking back on his college highlights it felt to me like he's not a very fluid athlete. However when he scored against the Giants he stumbled on his feet while getting up

Devin Thomas is one of the least fluid skill players I have ever seen in my life.

His route running is atrocious and he has about a fifteen inch vertical.

He has some amazing physical gifts, but he just isn't an NFL caliber football player. IMO.

Also I'm fairly convinced his football IQ is borderline short bus level.
