Roster Roulette Part 3: Special Teams and Practice Squad

 

 

Here is the rest of the cuts that I believe will happen before the regular season starts. Let's start off with the special teams first, and then get to the practice squad.

 

Kicker: Dan Carpenter

Punter: Brandon Fields

Long Snapper: John Denney

 

This was kind of a no-brainer. The specialists remain the same as last year, but if the front office decides that they need another linebacker or wide receiver, then they might cut Denney, because they have Jason Taylor practicing as the 2nd team long snapper.

 

Here is the practice squad:

 

Louis Ellis, DT

Lex Hilliard, RB

Brandon London, WR

John Nalbone, TE

Chris Williams, WR

Quentin Moses, LB

Rodrique Wright, DE


OK, so there is the last bit of the finalized roster for the start of the season. The Dolphins staff has there work cut out for them because there are a lot of players that share the same position, and are crowding up the depth chart, but have a certain set of skills that set them apart from the rest. Coming up later today will be the finalized roster that will show you everybody who made the roster, and practice squad.

true

even if the Dolphins could put London on it, he would be snatched up off waivers in a heartbeat before he even makes it to the PS.

How much you wanna bet

that if London is cut, the Jets scoop him up, especially after that super sideways catch Brandon made in that division winner finale?

they need all the help they can get

but they would probably pick up Burress, or trade for Marshall before London.

The Jets would do that just

to screw you guys over then they would return him.
