I hope Tyron Brackenridge makes the team.

From NFLPlayers.com on Bernard Pollard:

"Developed a love for computers from his father at a young age. He says he spends up to three or four hours a night on his computer looking at software and finding out how things work."  

Didn't see that one coming.

A Herm quote that I can't recall makes me think Webb is likely to remain as a receiver.  I hope Parker gets cut. The observation about him playing late into the game in the preseason was interesting, I thought, so maybe he could actually get cut.  I'd rather live with Ross's fumbles than Parker's drops.  I know... a fumble is a TO.

With Drummond in, Randolph's gone.  Unfortunately, the same is true of Phinisee, I'm afraid.  I like the way Phinisee returns kicks.

I think there's a chance somebody like Herb Taylor gets cut in favor of picking up someone else's o-line cuts.  Although I think the o-line would be harder to fit someone into the unit after no pre-season time.

Seems like it would be hard to cut Boomer, but if they really want to keep another linebacker or receiver, he could get squeezed out due to numbers, and his average play in the pre-season.  He can sure pop people, though, and one would hope he'd be around.  That leaping catch with bad ribs last week was gutsy.  Too bad about last night's drop.

Here's hoping both Boomer and Sippio make the 53.  As a fan, I want to see them play, and I think they're both tough guys who add great chemistry.  Sippio made a great catch last night with the defender's hands around the ball the whole time.  Not a highlight reel catch, but a touch catch.

--- webb is making this team. he is as much of a "herm guy" as mcgraw IMO, so they are both locks. i hope and pray that parker is the guy cut to make room for him in your thing, but i would bet it is sippio. i HATE receivers who cant catch, speed and all that cutsie-pie stuff is nice but you are worthless if you cant catch the ball.

--- which brings me to jason dunn. i love jason dunn, but (and i might be looking to much into this) him being on the 2nd floor while on PUP [hard knocks reference] might say something about how much herm likes him. i mean, if gonzalez was on PUP would he go up to the second floor? bad example, but what about someone like derrick johnson? i doubt it, and i think that dunn gets cut in favor of allan. again, dunn cant catch the ball and while we will need offensive line help, he isnt nearly as good at that as he used to be. i would much rather go into full on rebuild and keep allan over dunn, and i think herm agrees with me.

--- i absolutely LOVE the way phinisee returns punts. catches the ball, runs straight up field and usually runs over a guy or two. i think he might make the team purely based on that, but only if herm thinks we only need 5 WR's.

--- i like sending brackenridge to the practice squad. i really like the kid and i hope we can sneak him through, because he could be a future replacement for law/surtain with another year of seasoning. on a related note, ross is going to the practice squad IMO. he has all the tools to be a solid backup RB in this league, he just needs to learn how to hold on to the ball. o keith was ok but not nearly at the same level as ross IMO, so ross gets the practice squad slot.

--- i hate keeping scanlon. i know you are supposed to keep 7 LB's, but i would rather keep someone like phinsee to be a backup return man and special teams king than someone like scanlon. scanlon has never, ever impressed me and (being a kansas fan) i would rather see reid make the team than scanlon.

i think you did a great job overall, i cant wait for the final rosters to finally be announced.
