Hensley is a huge Cowboys fan if I remember correctly. Also a big crystal meth fan by the looks of his predictions.

Patriots cut Brian Hoyer backup QB, Ryan Mallett wins backup role.
Also sounds like they cut Deion Branch...big surprise.

That guy was nothing but a complete idiot when he covered the Baltimore Ravens for the Baltimore Sun, he seems to have become a bigger idiot since joining ESPN.

LOL, at this idiot for not picking the Baltimore Ravens to win the AFC North or at least get a Wildcard spot, it likely has to do with his hatred for the team. Him and his boyfriend Skip Bayless should get together and smoke whatever the hell is it that make them two of the biggest idiots at ESPN.

Interesting, Sean Considine makes the team over Omar Brown who has been nothing but awful. Good to see Tommy Streeter who is raw land on the IR with a "foot injury" since he likely would have not made past waivers as it looks Deonte Thompson beat him for the sixth receiver spot.

49ers have indicated that they aren't going to announce their cuts until after the deadline. That being said, Rock Cartwright just tweeted that he thanks the 49ers for the opportunity so it looks like he is gone.

On another front, 49ers traded special teamer Colin Jones to Carolina for a 7th Rd pick. So right now the 49ers have 12 draaft pick in the next draft. They seem to be Patriots West as far as collecting draft picks go.

Only really notable Eagles cuts are Chad Hall and Joselio Hanson.

The Arizona Cardinals have named John Skelton as the starting quarterback for their season opener, sources told ESPN.com.

Skelton won the starting job over Kevin Kolb, who has disappointed since signing a lucrative contract to join the Cardinals prior to last season.
2011 - Eagles trade QB Kevin Kolb to Arizona Cardinals for CB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and a second-round pick
2010 - Eagles trade QB Donovan McNabb to Washington Redskins for second and fourth round picks
2004 - Eagles trade QB AJ Feeley to Miami for a second round pick

Teams really need to stop trading with the Eagles.

Eagles cut OJ Atogwe and Mike Kafka. Looks like they're going with Foles as the backup this year.

Two biggest surprises for Philly: Chas Henry beats out Matt McBriar for the punting gig, and both Chris Polk and Bryce Brown have made the team.

No major surprises really in the Broncos cuts.

Drayton Florence was beaten out by Tony Carter and Omar Bolden. I guess that would be a minor surprise for some given his name recognition.

I'm really intrested to see the practice squad roster. I'm hoping that Gerell Robinson is on it as he was one of the cuts. The guy has so much potential.

For QBs maybe.

I think the Falcons absolutely stole Asante Samuel from the Eagles. They only had to give up a 7th rounder.

So glad Baltimore got rid of this bum, has all the tools and physical bulid in the world to be an elite left tackle, cares more about money than actually playing football. Seems he always comes down with back spasms around training camp time too.

Michael Harris will begin the season as the Chargers' starting left tackle.

At the rate things are going with Jared Gaither, there is no telling this year when that arrangement will end.

On Saturday, the team informed Harris he will be in the lineup Sept. 10 against the Raiders.

Bryant McKinnie has apparently been cut from Baltimore, Aaron Wilson tweeted that they tried to restructure his contract, which I believe may have lead to his release. Greats news to an already shaky offensive line.....

I would have been more worried about your O-line if Mckinnie had actually played. He is done.
