All extended comments can be found above ^, but to abbreviate it:


•The Rookie WRs progression and WR group as a whole

•The interior DL health and who takes spots on the depth chart

•The interior OL battles at Center and Right Guard

•The Secondary and how it is coming together, especially slot CB and SS

•The Guys who need to prove themselves (Ridley, Hightower, Amendola, Vereen and T. Wilson) and other player who can make a leap... (Collins, Ryan and Harmon)

I agree completely with your 53 man projection.

Jeremy Gallon will make the WR cut.  Book it.

I love the kid, but the he's a slot guy which we already have JE and DA also boyce can play the slot too.

I just think the WRs are logjammed enough to where he wont make it... Hopefully he clears onto the practice squad

If you truly love Gallon, you'd know that he isn't just a slot guy.

Highly doubt he will play outside the slot in the NFL.

Yes in college that works vs. soft zone defenses but he  isn't a Steve smith Mr. Physical on the outside.

He not playing outside the slot.

If anything, he can beat out Boyce and Amendola could go outside
