[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1065959, member: 10086"] Good stuff. I think the thing to remember also as a side note is this. While there are 53 Roster spots, there are many ways to make a team if you’re that guy that is injured now or you are filling in for an injured player. While most won’t see the 53, there’s over 25 players beyond the 53 that will pop in and out of PS (17) IR (8) and Non football injury etc. m For those fringe players. I’d like to compliment them. I think I did the math one time and I’m sure I’m off some. There are over 35,000 College football players from every known level and that does not include international athletes. Roughly 260 get drafted. Think about that for a second. If your a Priorty FA you’re in the top 350-450 Best players in the world, with a legit opportunity to showcase and to knock someone off that elite 250 etc. Top that with it churns by adding players EVERY season from that 35K ++. It’s just insane how elite you have to be to make camp. Many superstars will never suit up, just out of pure numbers making it cloudy. I bring that up because if that was my kid or my nephew etc? I’d be pretty damn proud you’re at camp and stretching alongside the likes of X or Cooper or Love etc. [/QUOTE]
