Where's Colvin?

Thanks for the list. I was hoping someone would do that.

Don't see a lot of room for the rooks on this years squad. I wouldn't be surprised if only a couple of drafted players make it.

By opening day, cut:

RB Hairston
FB Hill
WR Kight, Childress, Smith
TE Kranchick
OT Hilliard, Oldenburg, Britt
OG Mruczkowski
C Barthelmes, Elgin
DE Hill, Thomas
NT Smith
OLB Rogers
ILB Mays, Lua
CB Richardson, Williams, Spann, Jackson
S Baker, Mitchell, Hawkins
P Baugher, Malone
LS Case

This gives us 52 players. Woops.

Yeah, I accidentally listed Vrabel twice.

Jackson (Eddie, or both) will definitely go on PUP.

Mitchell or Hawkins will stay.

Mays and Smith will probably stay.

Either Brown or Hill will be cut, unless Brown converts to NT.

Hilliard, Oldenburg, or Britt will stay.

(That gives...what...60? )

PATRIOTS-80

ah ... this is my favorite part. Trying to predict the 53.

Don't write off Hairston quite yet ... he is a big-move-the-pile back who could compliment Maroney nicely.

Last year BB got Mincey and Woods, and one stuck. I think this will be the case with Justin Rodgers and Lua. My money is on Rodgers making it. He's got the size that you need for that position, 6-4, 250 lbs.

Brown looks like a DE to me. This very well could be Hill's last TC to show up. People probably yawned when Brown got picked, but don't forget that Warren's contract is coming up.
