mayo is a lock.......so is the starting OL.....moss, welker, thomas, warren, wilfork, meriweather, seymour, wright, guyton, burgess, baker, brace, vollmer.......there are more......they are all locks.....even hoyer has become a lock

doesn't sound trite at all.........just a bit ridiculous IMO

I think Galloway could be gone........to be 3rd or 4th on the WR depth and not play a down of ST makes him hard to justify given his play and failure to grasp his routes........at 37, he should have that stuff picked up by now and if he doesn't he can't help

moss, welker, lewis, aiken, edelman, nunn

What if Branch gets cut?

Just sayin.

for those who say galloway is getting cut.....

who plays opposite randy on the other side of the field?

lewis, edelman and welker are slot guys

htat leaves aiken and nunn.....neither of whom i would like to line up against a teams 2nd best CB.....these WR's are good, but not THAT good....

welker has done more than fine lining up opposite moss.........just because they're good slot guys, does not mean they can't line up outside........

galloway has not even been 'not that good'

...yes, Galloway can run routes. He's known for being a very good route runner, actually. And in general, any WR who has stuck around for 14 years, even if he wasn't good at it to begin with, is likely to become pretty good at it at worst.

I go by 2007 more since we got the right QB back again.......welker was out there plenty even with stallworth here

and no.....you don't need to look at a vets past........not when they're 37......either they grasp it quick, or they're not that much of a help........

he's been here the whole spring and summer.....to not be running routes right at this point is a no-no

The really awesome thing about regularly lining Welker up outside would be that you'd get to make the team worse at *two* positions.
