What player that didn't seem to have much of a chance or what bubble player do you think will earn a roster spot tonight? Or at least which player would you like to see earn a spot?

Underwood is my choice. I liked that pick from the beginning. It would be nice to see him develop into a top notch CB. I like his size.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

i think Underwood already has his spot. He's played up to being a #4 in the rotation. Especially with the injuries we have in the secondary, i feel good about having him there.

I'm torn the FB debate. I don't know if tonight's game will have any bearing on the decision or not. Either way, I think it's the most exciting roster spot left on the team.

I hope Korey Hall, is on the final roster. I really like this player, but in the last interview I saw, he doesn't feel very confident that he is on the final roster, maybe he is only humble or maybe the work of rookie FB, Quinn Johnson, is causing him to worry.

BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

I haven't seen the update on Brandon Jackson's injury, if it is seroius enoughto put him on IR, that might change the whole outlook at rb/fb.

I think you are going to see a lot of Hall and Lumpkin tonight, sadley one of them will probably go.

Right now I think Hall has the inside track, he has performed better on ST's. We will see.

With Tn. running out their starters for awhile, the punter probably will get his chance to solidify his spot, or we could have a repeat of last year with Ted Thompson signing someone off the street.

Guys on the bubble will get their shot tonight, the ones that perform most likely will be the ones making the team.

Fb,punter, and db's seem to be the positions to watch tonight.

To tell you the truth ... I dont like underwood; he looks undersized (muscle wise) and isnt that good. Suppose when I compare people to woodson and harris noone looks that good cept for jenkins but NO got him in the draft.

I personally would like to keep all 3 FBs. I'm a bit worried about jackson he was my fav back last year.

If its between wynn and sutton I think wynn wins out. If they keep both ... more power to em. Lumpkin gets the boot IMO.

There was talk about kuhn getting the boot but I really like what I have seen again from him. Our FBs just rock Hall and Kuhn and Quinn will be good I bet.

Swain has a chance if he can show his stuff in this game; havner too.

-just think we get to see matthews in action tonite-

I think Underwood has a spot already unless he blows it tonight.

I really think they should go with 2 TEs and three FBs. Havners isn't better than any of them.

It could be Wynn vs. Sutton (depending on how Jackson is).
Sutton has looked better in games... but going against less talented guys... but rumor is Wynn has looked totally better in practice and they could go with both

It could be Kuhn vs. Hall (depending if they want Havner... (cut Havner and keep 3 FBs)
Hall has looked better at FB... but Kuhn adds the fact he can also be a power RB and make red zone runs... also both add a lot to STs. I say keep them both.

It's gonna be Meredith vs. Moll vs. Dietrich-Smith
Dirtrich-Smith has looked the best but the problem is the team needs LTs which the other two are and Meredith has looked the worst but is a draft pick and has the most upside.

Lansanah vs. OLB Jones
I think cut Havner keep 3 FBs and both of these guys would be best.... but that's gonna be VERY hard to do with out limit other positions...

Rouse vs. Bush vs. Peprah
None of them have shown they're good enough to keep. Bush has looked the best... and adds the most to STs but Rouse has the upside... I'm not sure if Rouse and Peprah has healthy right now. Honestly I would be okay with IRing Rouse and cutting the other two... or cutting all three and moving Blackmon to FS to make room for all the more talented CBs.

Martin vs. Swain vs. Allen vs. Heckendorf
As far as WR Martin just hasn't proven to be able to step it up... but then again no one else has been able to step it up enough ether... if someone steps up today they could get the last WR spot today... as of right now I would say Martin's play on STs leads the way for the last WR spot.

I wonder if as we're in Tenn Ted Thompson will have a chat with the Titans about trading Bush. They wanted him as a restricted free agent.

That would free up some space.

I hope we IR Rouse or Peprah and keep Bush if we cant trade him. Bush may actually be a decent zone corner. Man to man was never his forte.

Jarius Wynn. That guy has some talent in him. He has speed for a big guy, it won't be bad if we get 2 of Raji.

Kuhn v. Hall I like Hall better on special teams and as a receiver. Yet I hate to see either go.

Underwood v. Bush Underwood will at least be a practice squad player. Whichever one is cut will likely land on another roster.

Havner v. Lasanah Havner is better on special teams and has versatility to play TE. Havner wins.

WR's Swain and Allen will be headed to the practice squad. I think one gets picked up and then Heckendorf has a shot at the practice squad.

LB Jones and Obiozor may be both competing for a practice squad spot.

Moll v. Meredith Meredith bett show something or he could be practice squad material. Deitrich-Smith could be a late addition to the practice squad if claims go in for others.

Sutton in Wynn out. Lumpkin will be fighting for the practice squad.

Evan Moore is fighting for a practice squad spot.

Parrick Lee really will be lucky to go on IR and try again next year.

Talley needs to show something because who really knows what will be decided about Harrell. Wynn has already made the roster.

Just an opinion and I could be incorrect here and there. As always injuries are always a factor.
