Projected Roster?

[nunusguy]

The concern I have about releasing Chris O. is that while he might be the least talented of the whole RB-crew, he is the only one who's remained healthy/uninjured thru all of TC if I'm not mistaken ? And that should be worth something ?
And on the subject of injuries, I'd bet right now that Foster dosen't play 9/11 because I suspect if he has a third "event" this soon with his hammy it's going to be a really long reovery period ?

Only reason to keep Chris O over Slaton would be enough injury concerns with 1st three running backs.

Saw some tweets from Jabba on the PS:

Key members of practice squad: S Shiloh Keo, WR Trindon Holliday, RB Chris Ogbonnaya, WR Jeff Maehl, G Andrew Gardner, LB Mister Alexander.

C Howard Barbieri also on practice squad.

Also, they claimed a G from the Pats, so someone is about to go:

Texans claimed G Thomas Austin on waivers from Pats. He gives them inside depth. They lost 2 backup guards for season.

Texans re-signed P Brett Hartmann to replace Brad Maynard. To make room on the roster, they waived OLB Jesse Nading.

IMO the interesting thing here is the signings of Maehl and the two UDFA WR placed on IR. That is three guys being red shirted.

Also they kept punt returning back up Holliday, who looked solid as a punt returner the other night. Nice insurance there. Gives him a longer look, if he stays in the tub any longer he is cut.

Ogbonnaya is exactly where I thought he would be after a week of training camp, he is only valuable as an emergency guy. He does not have NFL quickness, but he can play if we have a few RBs go down.

Shocked we have not signed a punter yet or David Anderson.

They kept Braman and released Nading. Kinda surprising ? Not that I disagree with their judgement because Bramans the one with the potential IMO ?

Hooo boy, I thought Bulman might've been on the bubble... Turns out it was Nading....

Colorado State players are dropping like flies. Just two left on the active roster - Brisiel and Dreessen.
