I think this roster is going to have some major surprises and cuts.

[HHURRICANE]

I'm telling you right now that Chris Ellis hasn't been mentioned once this entire off-season. I think he's not going to make the roster.

I also believe that they love Ashlee Palmer. The guy is already running plays with the first team. I don't think Bowen or Harris have done that yet.

Now this is a gut feeling but I think either Kelsay or Schobel is gone before the season opener. Call me crazy but I think one of these guys gets moved before the season opener.

I also believe that Parrish is on the short list of players that still might get moved especially if Johnson steps up, which hasn't happened yet.

All possibilities.

Re: I think this roster is going to have some major surprises and cuts.

Ellis has been mentioned. He has been working with the 2nd team.

I also don't see Schobel going - he was paid a big bonus back in March. I also am not sure the if Ellis goes that one of last years starters goes too. I just don't see two of the guys from last year gettng the ax.

I'm not sure they are done trying to address DE even in the open market.

Re: I think this roster is going to have some major surprises and cuts.

Man, what a colossal disappointment Schobel has been - almost regardless of what he does this year, which, if they keep him, I hope includes at least tripping over his own shoelaces and getting a sack on Brady.

Harris did run with the first teamers a long with Palmer at the end of the OTA's last week but it's interesting that Palmer ran with the first teamers again. I don't know if he pushes Ellison for the starting spot since he plays the weakside. Harris has made some plays at the strongside and I truley think he will snag the spot.

That look with the first team may have though def gave him a legit shot at making the team.

Re: I think this roster is going to have some major surprises and cuts.

I think surprise cuts could be Drayton Florence, Ryan Denney, Dominic Rhodes, george Wilson, John Wendling, Jon Corto, Ryan Neil, and Ashton Youboty
also possible Corey McIntyre, Roscoe Parrish, Justin Jenkins, Blake costanzo, and Finally John McCargo

all are in steep competition with someone for roster space and playing time

Re: I think this roster is going to have some major surprises and cuts.

no way Youboty gets cut IMO. true he has injury issues but hes the only one on D who could make a tackle (outside the endzone) last season.

Re: I think this roster is going to have some major surprises and cuts.

Part of Schobels $21M "guaranteed money" from his contract extension is in the form of guaranteed salaries through '10. He's guaranteed $3.5M this season, and $6M in 2010.

Best we can hope for is a remarkable recovery from his foot issue. Because I wouldn't expect they'd boot his ass with $9.5M on the table. He'll be washing TO's jock delicates if nothing else.

BTW... He's due an additional $21.5M for '11-'14... Money he'll never see IMO.

You already got Constanzo right.

Denney's name gets brought up every year but he always plays better than Kelsay.

If Yobouty gets cut it will be a tremendous waste of talent.

Didn't you start a thread a week ago that said Youboty was going to get cut?

Re: I think this roster is going to have some major surprises and cuts.

I really think we will have at least one surprise ADD before or during the season still.

I really think it will be an OLB.
