Odd -- I'd have gone with Stoll. Now for week 1, you're locked into elevating Stoll and Gates (need a 3rd TE and backup C). You likely need to keep Wilson active, and I guess this means he is over his concussion. So you deactivate McKee, Kinnard, Keegan, Hunt, Booker, Ricks, and...Burks? Trotter Jr.? DeJean? McCollum?

I'd likely deactivate DeJean or McCollum. 

Did any of our camp cuts get picked up elsewhere?

Toth's exploration of other opportunities went well then. 

Don't know why we need ILB6 on the roster when there are more obvious needs

Maybe teams were sniffing around Burks? Doesn't make any sense

I'm guessing that with Bradberry headed to IR, the team will likely elevate either Stoll or Campbell to the 53. There's no need to carry 5 safeties on the active roster.

I thought I knew this but I heard conflicting information on the radio yesterday - do we have 8 short-term IR slots total -or- do we get 2 freebees at cutdown with another 8 in-season (for a potential for 10)?  I figured the former, but the usage on Albert O seemed so feckless that maybe it was a use-it-or-lose situation.

They have a tougher than average SOS which doesn't help them but they have 2 winnable games to start the season.  They potentially have one of the best d-lines in the league. They have a good defensive coordinator.  Nabers gives Jones a legitiimate weapon he hasn't had. On the other hand, their o-line is still a mess aside from Thomas.  Singletary is not a workhorse back.  They have questions in their secondary.  If they start the season poorly, it could get very bad for them.  

I’ve always thought this was dumb. The schedules are so complicated, why not make it like the draft. Super Bowl winner gets the hardest schedule. 

On an off topic note: Apparently Tom Brady's part ownership of the Raiders will bar him from attending production meetings that analysts usually go on before broadcasts, no practices, and can't criticize officials during games he's calling.

Stoll is also still in #83, you can clearly see him around 7 second mark.

Probably complicated because of who the SB winners division is scheduled to play against. If they face the NFC south vs AFC north it's probably hard to make them have the hardest schedule.

8 total, 10 if you make playoffs

The Rodgers thing is weird and came out of nowhere. Did they ever say what his injury was?

Nobody wants #21... wild that all these DBs want numbers in the 30s.

How long as Johnny been sidelined with this concussion? Must've been a bad one

I see it more of an indication that they are practicing outside when it's 83 degrees and sunny.

Of course.  He's a cheater and there is a price to pay.

Yeah, I can't imagine the stuff they warned them about. One of the first things had to be to imagine honeypots everywhere. To reference Renaissance Man they will be throwing the hookers through their windows. 

Interesting that he's in a massive brace now. Had been doin all his other rehab work in just a sleeve
