Are you doing to update this post when players are cut or will there be a new thread created for that?

[Ruff]

For me, it's hard to imagine that Tolbert deserves a spot on this team. He's not a great run-blocker (proven by the fact that we keep Brockel around as some sort of quasi-FB), he's nowhere near the "catching threat" he was once considered to be, and we have other, younger, backs who show they are more hungry than he is. I would give a spot to Wegher (consistently shown what he is capable of in the preseason) or Todman (a more consistent ST player) over Tolbert.

Also, releasing Tolbert saves us 2m against the cap immediately.

I don't usually share my opinion on roster spots because if there is one thing I know almost 100% of the time, fans and their expert drawn out opinions are completely wrong and it's always funny. So I will wait for the roster to be put into place by the people that actually know how to evaluate talent professionally and watch with popcorn in hand at all the overreactions taking place.

Can I just take a moment here and extol the virtues of one Joe Webb

He is the best QB3 in the game and provides us with depth on offense and ST

Same with Corey Brown, noticed he played very little which leads me to believe he is safe.

People actually thought there was a chance Brown would get cut?

Yea, he played like trash a couple of weeks ago but if you guys haven't noticed, all of our receivers (sans maybe Funchess) are trash, at least without Benjamin around to take #1 attention.  He was never not safe.

I tried to fill out a roster and got to 46 with the guys I'm comfortable thinking are making the team.  It will be interesting to see who gets chosen from the bubble.  We heard there were 9 spots available but I think the WR figured itself out with Byrd and Mike Brown on the outs.  Brockel will make it and people will RAGE lol. 

My bubble squad:

Swole Bones, Fozzy, Trusnik, Wegher, Glanton, Brockel, Marlowe, Lucas, Simonson, Wallace (OT), Chandler, Love, Teddy Williams, Heath, Byndom, Foucault, Blechen

I really have to think that Love is a lock looking at age, assuming he is cheap, and with Star's string of foot issues.

CB Melvin White was taken off IR and officially cut today.

Yup pretty much what we saw for the first 9 weeks of last year until Norwell took over.

Still hope he makes the roster. We need a legit starter at both S spots.

I realize this ship has sailed, but I was catching up on my reading, and I thought this comment needed a bit of expanding/  I agree, and here is why: Marlowe has a chance to  become a complete S, while Harper and Jones are rather one-dimensional.   Marlowe has a bunch of technique work to get down, but when he does, I see Marlowe, Boston, and Coleman as the future at S-and a pretty good group.

About Tolbert making the roster: 

I just don't see the value.  He is no running back, he is no fullback.  He can play special teams.  He is beyond the age RBs peak.  He carries too much weight
