I'd still like to see a RB who can turn 2nd or 3rd and 2 into an automatic first down.

I may be in the minority, but I thought Howard looked like a new man the times I saw him play in the pre-season...

Howie did not even remotely answer the level of interest in Watson question.

 

Nick seems to not be his high school coach self today.

I was honestly surprised he didn't say the usual "we always look for more talent to add to the team"

F Howie is at that presser too?  Does every NFL team have the "GM” chaperon the Head Coach at pressers?

Wasn't he always at the PC with the HC on cut day?

Overall, I'm happy with the roster choices. Took the long-term view.

Give him a few weeks and he’ll be #1

Here is the WR we need.

He can't, it would be tampering. I don't know why reporters even ask.

Saying we had no interest is tampering ??

Watching Collin Johnson highlights, and just as expected, he's better than JJAW.  We should claim him.

Likewise for Tyron Johnson.  Claim them both.  We have ties to both of them.

I liked what I seen from Elijah Holyfield. Powerful never knocked backwards and could be a nice short yardage guy.

Can see Eagles putting in a claim for Tyron Johnson and Ha-Ha so far.

Vets with 4 years experience don’t need to clear waivers

He will be back after week 1 so his contract is not guaranteed.  We will not have 10 OL and 7 LB's going into the week 2 game.

He also said "The whole world saw what Joe Flacco did against the Jets".  I had no idea that many people watched a postponed 3rd pre-season game!  But maybe that means the NFL is aware of what Flacco can do and he's tradeable. 

That's so stupid

That's that outside the box thinking. I like it. (Bullock is better.)

Has anyone checked to see if their kneecaps are OK?

Any breakdown of what the final 53 man roster is? 

Fulgham was terrible.  During peak Fulgham hysteria last year, I said he wouldn’t even make the roster if they handle the position properly.l this year.
 

Hightower can get behind a WR, but that’s all he can do.  His routes are horrific (I said that a while back and someone posted a tweet of Avant saying he runs great routes…I’m pretty sure Avant has been lobbying for a job with the Eagles).  He doesn’t really have that much potential either with how physically weak and leggy he is.  

They have 3 WRs on the team worth rostering, a 4th (Ward), who makes the team as the veteran with experience to catch the ball while standing still.  It was definitely the right call to go light at WR.

Interesting that we send Pryor to the Colts a few hours before we cut Le'Raven Clark. 

Makes the Colts less likely to sign him (he was there last 5 seasons) if we have any intention of bringing him back.

Yeah from the outside seems as if there is a lot of gamesmanship in these cuts. Hopefully we're not getting too cute and can bring back the guys they want to keep.
