Challenging night for Terrence Wheatley. Second-year CB Terrence Wheatley was victimized in both tackling and coverage. He had been rising last year into a starter’s role before injuring his wrist in early November, and now he looks like the fourth or fifth corner.
That's brutal and sad for him. It shows how important it is to stay on the field. That injury proved to me more than just a minor setback for the kid.

Good work as usual by Mike.
I agree with 51 of the 53.

My guess is that Reiss expects LeVoir to be on the PUP list; otherwise only 3 OT's is pretty crazy. I still would have kept four, keeping Britt.

I would keep another linebacker; but perhaps Lenon isn't cutting it. Even with more 53, I'd rather be prepared for Bruschi not having a major role.

MY BOTTOM LINE
Britt or Levoir instead of Smith.
Lenon instead of BJGE.

I love Reiss, but I don't see Ventrone or LeVoir getting cut.

Reiss is falling in love with new and shiny and forgetting the nuts and bolts.
-- TE is nice, but you can't justify four.
-- If you can't keep four TEs, it's hard to keep five RBs.
-- Eight OL would make sense if one was a veteran T/G combo, but I'd not be trusting Brady to Vollmer if one of Light or Kac goes out, and Hochstein/Orhnberger are not subbing at T in anything but an absolute emergency. And while he was admiring Orhnberger, did he see the guys who weren't daydreaming on that play? O most likely got a 'wake-up kid, this is the NFL,' from Dante during the tape review.
-- How is Ingram the lock? Hodel took the day off so they could focus those half dozen reps on Ingram.
-- Mike keeps one Special Teams Ace, BB may surprise us, but I don't think he goes that far from his roster template.

Reiss sounded least committed to Smith among all of his 53. But he thinks Slater will be on.

Is BJE worth a 5th-round pick in trade?
