Seymour, Wilfork, Warren, Green, Wright and Brown are six; who is #7?
 
I'm still not 100% convinced Brown makes the roster, but I think his chances are are pretty good.

I'd say Le Kevin Smith, just to give them an extra NT.
 
A fourth rounder gets at least a free pass as a developmental player (always inactive). The alternative is a minor injury that puts him on IR. We only dress five DL's.

Yeah, I think that would be the alternative if Moore (or K. Smith) proves worthy and Brown not so. That would mean Wright and Green backing up at DE and Smith and Moore at NT.
 
I say Moore, LeKevin to the PS.
 
Le Kevin Smith. Gots to have the fat men. I think we'd rather have Wright playing just DE instead of both DE and NT. I think Thomas and Brown fight for last roster spot while the other goes to the practice squad.
 
I say Moore, LeKevin to the PS.

Rashad Moore is not eligible for the PS since he has been active more than 9 games in a previous season. Warren, Wilfork, Seymour, Wright, Moore, Green, and Brown. I like Moore over LeKevin because he has the mass to control the point of attack. He seems to have good quickness as well for a big guy.

LeKevin and Thomas to PS. Maybe we can pick up a late round pick for LeKevin on cutdown day.
 
This is really a tough one, hard to tell at this point.. no one has really stepped forward.. let me review the tapes will BB and will tell you later.

It would certainly be a shock (and a major draft blunder) if Brown were cut, but he appeared to be at the very bottom of the roster on Friday. Worried me a bit.

That was my thinking too.
