All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Seems about right. I'll go with Troup over Gilbert. Although that may be more wishful thinking than anything else. I suppose McGee is the big name missing. If he proves to be healthy (which isn't likely) they will probably find a place for him.

I had 6 CB's initially but I think they keep one or two on the PS instead of keeping 6 active. Just a guess at this point though.
It's a tough call, but wouldn't be the first time I was surprised.
I still think Choice makes it over White at RB.
I've got to add Dickerson as my third TE as you have, but then somebody has to go. Currently I still have Potter as a KOS and he'd be the easy out, but I can't shake the feeling they drafted this guy to make the team.
Receiver is going to see some tough cuts, but I still think they only keep 5 + Smith, especially if they insist on having Spiller and Jackson on the field more together.
Four tackles, tops. Carmon has PS written all over him.
I can see five spots for C/G, but definitely not six. Might go as light as four. I'll probably add Brown or Asper to mine at some point in the next couple of weeks because I still have an open spot there.
They have to have 5 DE's, IMO, especially if Merriman is healthy.
Still think Heard or Troup (or even Edwards !surprise!) if he continues to stick with the two's over Gilbert.
I've got six 'backers instead of seven (but also have Scott still on safety depth so that evens it up).
If we don't pick up a street FA, somebody from the trio of Howell, Saenz or Sukay just has to step up.

I'll be very surprised if Gilmore isn't a far better corner than McKelvin.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
Good write-up/prognostications, DB. A few things I don't see eye-to-eye with you, though (some that others have already mentioned):
-Moats will definitely make it over Chris White
-I also believe that Troup and/or Heard make it over Gilbert
-I'm also in the camp that sees Choice being our 3rd RB, while JW hits the road
-I like Asper to make it over Williams at OG (since he's more versatile and a possible b/u C down the line)
-Methinks Carmon will be PS material
-Howell might make the team (need more safeties anyways)
-Powell could possibly knock Moorman out, but we'll see.
Couple things I 100% agree with you on and HOPE happen:
-Dickerson making the team...really high on this kid and think he could be a real diamond in the rough.
-Kicking McGee to the curb. He's done, and for the first time in a decade each roster spot we have is valuable--he brings nothing special anymore.
The only other player I have making it is John Potter--and if he's anything like his college videos--touchback king on 70-yd kicks outside in Western Michigan--then he needs to make the team.
Lastly DB, if you or anyone else here has the dates for each round of cuts, could you please post them here? It would be most appreciated.

I think they keep 6 CB's, even though they haven't the past two seasons.
I need to update my thread...haven't done it in a while.
I think your right. With the way our defensive line will be stacked, I imagine that teams are going to try to spread us out with 4 and 5 wides, try to beat us with slants and screens.
