Just got my most direct update on Madubuike yet... He's not cleared, and they don't know when he'll be cleared, but they're confident that he will be cleared. They are fully anticipating him being on the field this season.

If you made me decide today, he’s off. So I don’t think there’s a consensus that he’s safe. Just that he’s not a for sure goner like everyone expected when the offseason started.

I also think RR was fine last year overall. Not great, not terrible. Just fine. I'm not quite as high on him as I was after his rookie season but I also don't know how much stock to put in the fact that everything was just broken last year. With the overall team regression, I think it's...

I think the chances of a QB3 are slim to none. To me the big questions are do you want to keep 11 DBs and/or 10 OL and where do you subtract to do that? Edge and WR seem like the potential answers there IF someone like Wester or Isaac doesn't step up. As you alluded to, most of the...

On Broderick Washington, he is absolutely at risk. Got his contract and fell off. With that being said, they don't need the money right now so there's no harm in seeing if he can get back to what he was. That's a big reason they kept him around - the cap savings is there whether you cut him 4...

I personally had Emery as a better fit at G for the long run, but I think he fits well at T and I don't know that they have much choice but to use him there as of now. If he were to stick at G, OT4 would be Pounds (who probably should have been drafted on talent but had health concerns) or...

I feel like I'm pretty close to this. DL certainly feels like the deepest spot on the roster. Can't keep them all and you're almost surely cutting someone that is going to play elsewhere in the league if not here. I don't think Okoye did much improving once he got on the field but he's not...

I’d be very surprised if Pocic isn’t the guy IF he’s fully healthy. That’s the big question mark to me. If both are at full strength, I think they’d lean Pocic and it wouldn’t be particularly close.

Guess they felt good about the health and the clearance. I know they were not quite as optimistic early in the offseason, but I knew they were planning to revisit. Seems like that went well. Pocic has actually turned into a decent player though. Nothing special but someone you can trot out...

Along with this... I know a lot of people are looking at Vorhees for potential cap savings, but this makes him the top backup G with the other options being quite uninspiring. Gwyn and Bullock are more of C options but could slide out to G if needed. Otherwise, you've really got Beerntsen as...

I guess while I'm here, they're obviously keeping tabs on OL. They're also keeping an eye out at WR and Edge. Don't think they're pressed to make a move anywhere but they've been in contact with guys. Think you could see them sub out some UDFAs for some borderline vets (a la that K'Von...

Assuming we stay in house, I'd be shocked if it's anyone but Pinter. I don't think they're done looking for other options but Pinter is the favorite at this stage and I don't think it's particularly close with Gwyn or Bullock (when he gets back healthy).

They've been keeping an eye out but everything I've heard doesn't seem to indicate they have the same views on his health. I heard internally that they didn't think he'd be ready until part of the way through the season. Don't know that he hasn't recovered faster by any means, but this could...

I think we all have that feeling to be fair. I don't know that I was ever making it to the pros, but I definitely would have played college and had a shot at probably the MLS had (a) I not gotten hurt and (b) had that development earlier in my life as opposed to when I got to high school. Also...

It was expensive when I was a kid. Can’t imagine how expensive it is now. I certainly didn’t grow up poor but we didn’t have a lot of money either. I was really good at soccer and had several of those club teams approach me but we could never afford it. Instead, I was on the t-shirt team...
