It should definitely be CEH if it's between those two. Hell CEH might be the worst back on the roster at this point.

I'd rather keep Fortson than Grey myself.

Yep, I tend to agree. If he can make it back in time for the first preseason game and show he hasn't lost a step, it would be tough to move on from him. That wingspan and size could be critical on Offense and maybe even the FG Block team.

I'm not sure he'll even be 100% by preseason, IIRC he was injured in October so it hasn't even been a full year yet... that said I'd still rather bank on his potential coming to fruition later this season

As you say, he's freaking huge... not to mention he has hops and can actually catch

I can't see McKinnon getting cut no matter which way I look at it.

When he started playing at the end of the season and in the playoffs he immediately looked light years better than anyone else had looked the entire season. He ran fast and hard and he was freaking brilliant in the screen game.

I'm not one of the CP CEH haters, but if comes down to him or McKinnon I'm taking McKinnon every time. I know he has an extensive injury history - but I'd give him one more chance to show me those were fluke major injuries that no one could've avoided. It's not like CEH is an iron man, he's already had his share of injuries too.

I'm keeping McKinnon and Pacheco, and if we're only keeping 3 then it's between CEH and RoJo for the final spot.

The most likely plan for Pacheco is a PS stash. Bring him up when the one 3 guys who don't have the greatest injury history in front of him go down. Most likely all 3 will miss time at some point.

Doubtful. Seems like he's been hyped up quite a bit, wouldn't trust that he'd clear waivers.

Agree. If he looks anything like he's looked in camp in the preseason, then there's no way he clears waivers to get onto the PS.

If you HAD to let one go, who is it?

Again, you can't be the kick returner on the practice squad

With two being injury prone and one a rookie, I’d stash a TE on the IR.

Probably Matt Bushman. Gray is not going anywhere, neither is Bell. I'm pretty sure they will keep 4. I bet they go short on the OL, that's where they'll stash 2

He likely never make it past waivers, so that's not a swell option. I'd like to see a couple preseason games before I make a RB cut.

I think we keep 4 TEs, we did last year. Fortson was well on his way last year and is a big target in the endzone. Plus, he a converted WR, so he should have good hands. Gray has shown a lot of progress this camp. He's also a ST guy.

I thought he was back already? Didn't he just tweak his quad the other day and is out for just a few days?
