I agree with that. Also Mike Duffy just reported via Rumor Central that Troy Smith may get cut today.

I think we all knew that was a possibility after the last game.

Well so far i'm on point with my roster, only thing that i'm monitoring is troy smith rumors. I took a chance cutting prince and it paid off, although i was kinda routing for him. had harwood and david reed both making the team, as well as cundiff, i think what set him apart was his kickoff placement and depth.

Nice job, what was your take on D.Will? I really thought Reed would go to the practice squad and Miller would make it. I missed completely!

Chris Hawkins cut.

I have us keeping D williams, only cause the stallworth injury. so Boldin, Mason, Clayton, D williams, stallworth, David Reed (6 altogether) , as far as cornerback, i cut prince because i have a feeling there is still a Cb acquisition left, either trade or picking up a cut player from another team.

That'll be my downfall. I've been right so far as well, but I have us cutting D-Will. Might be where I screwed up.

Could be true but something will have to change once Stalls comes back. Its going to be very interesting over the next 6 or 7 weeks.

it will be interesting. I still see us keeping 6 throughout the season, considering how injuries usually hamper our wr's . Boldin, stallworth, clayton and d williams usually have injury issues.

Barnes is now an eagle gotta find out what pick.we got

[DrMoonTooth]

I just realized that all our 2010 draft picks have made/are going to make the team. With Harewood, Jones, and Reed already being confirmed (and pending the practically guaranteed reports that Dickson, Pitta, and Cody made the team). The only exception would be Kindle, whose status is still uncertain. Great draft by Ozzie regardless.

Just said 2011 draft pick.

[I*Bleed*Purple]

That sucks! I thought he did a hell of a job as a passrusher.

wow im shocked... barnes was an asset, must be halfway decent compensation. Ozzie did say when we picked up Josh Wilson, that there was 3-4 players on the team that was potential for a trade, I didnt think we'd trade barnes, wow..

Just saw the tweet...*sigh*. I hope we got a decent pick for him.

[DrMoonTooth]

I wonder what this means for a guy like Jason Philips...does he make the team now? If anything, I think it makes guys like Prescott Burgess breathe a little easier.

Anything less than a 4th would be a steal. Cant imagine Ozzie letting him go for less than that.

It could also be an indicator of Kindles recovery. Maybe he is coming along better than anticipated. Got something for Barnes while the getting was good.

[CorvusCorax]

OMG did not see Antwan Barnes getting traded.

This must be a move to get someone else in or other negotiation moves to get a draft pick for another player.

Yeah. When I saw the trade, a 4th round pick was what popped into my mind as well.

[Rav'n Maniac]

I'm really disappointed with the Barnes trade. Felt the guy was a lock. Hope it's a damn good draft pick!

Definitely. There should be an update on Kindle before long. I think the Ravens are supposed to be evaluating him within the next couple of weeks if I'm not mistaken.

[Dan The Man Ravens #1 Fan]

I guess we can expect Edgar Jones to make the roster now. Perhaps even Burgess?

[FlaccoFlicker]

was excited to see us keep Billy,he stepped up for us last season,of course that mood might change if he misses a game winning field goal for us

I would put Burgess ahead of Jones. Prescott had 34 special teams tackles to Jones' 19. He's more of an asset on special teams.

Ugh Wilson just tweeted that Phillips and Prescott Burgess are probably safe. Burgess I'm fine with but Phillips has not impressed me.

[CorvusCorax]

The Barnes trade may have been an upcoming cap space move

I really haven't been that impressed with Burgess. Maybe it's just me, but I haven't seen him do much at all. I don't even know when he's on the field half the time, which is pretty bad if I can identify Edgar Jones before I can identify Burgess.

Just quality special teamers is all. Gooden, McClain, Ellerbe are our linebackers right now.

I have to agree with you there, dude couldn't cover my Grandmother on a hot route if there's play action.

[Lisa1970]

Trading Antwan Barnes and cutting Prince Miller are the only moves that really surprised me. Maybe Miller will end up on the practice squad- I thought he showed a lot of promise as a returner
