    Love that squad. Clay will play some ILB there, so with the exception of the unproven boundary CB opposite Sheilds, that roster is loaded with talent and experience. Among Hayward, Randall, Rollins, and Goodson, I think there's depth of talent there, if not experience.

    Obviously can't count on it, but Bradford could very well make the jump inside. He has the passion, toughness and instincts if not the measurables.

    Then I think there's a wealth of upside potential dropping to the practice squad.

    APRH, strongest and deepest squad in the Thompson/McCarthy era top to bottom.

    Drink up boys.

    I'm about to head to the Dominican for a week so I'm thinking rum punch. Straight-up Kool Aide until then though!

    Hmm. interesting that no one has Thornton on the 53. I know he didn't look good last year - in fact, I think everyone questioned what TT saw in him to warrant a 3rd round pick. However, remember, Josh Boyd looked like crap too his first year.

    It'll be interesting to see how Thornton does this year.
