Dowling could be out. I don't see Armstead getting cut because they are high on his upside. I think Cunningham is gone. Not sure on Fells. He's looked better than last year, but he didn't set the bar real high with last year's performances.
Seriously doubt Armstead gets cut. Guy has an infection, most likely staph. Everything I read and heard about him was he is a beast. He imo is a lock for the 53.
Fells is going up against Ballard and Hooman for a spot. I expect 1 of the 5 to get cut.
Cunningham is gone.
Dowling, if he can somehow manage to practice and play in a game, he MIGHT make it.
I expect Armstead to be on the NFI or on the PUP list. There are levels of recovery. Presuming that he is recovered, he needs time to build strength and get into game condition. I do underestimate his future with us. He is a solid prospect.

I certainly agree that Dowling and Cunningham are squarely on the bubble already, which is due to a combination of sub-par play and other factors such as PED suspension (Cunningham) and injury (Dowling).
Let's not lump everyone in to the same category though...different scenarios call for different measures. Fells hasn't earned that poor reputation. He has been the TE1 in Gronk's absence up until about a week ago. Just b/c he is dinged up a bit and missed a week of practice shouldn't mean that he's going to be cut.
Armstead will likely be returning from PUP to give us more depth after the 6th or 7th game in my opinion, and Fells will be needed for our TE depth which currently has Ballard slowly progressing and Sudfeld as a raw rookie; especially if the plan is to bring Gronk back after the 2nd game in NY after the long break. Fells is definitely needed.
