Teams are getting down to 53 man rosters soon.
Thought we could use this thread to share news on former EMU guys.

“Rookie Sidy Sow had the inside track this summer, but everything could be shaken up now that Belichick has added a pair of external options to the mix.”

Drummond:

Looks like Drummond was cut this afternoon.
Here’s to hoping he’s a practice squad addition.

Jose Ramirez was cut today:

That sucks. I know he was dealing with an injury. Hopefully, they sign him to the practice squad.

So how many EMU players are on NFL rosters? 3? Crosby, Wylie, and O'Connor.........Sow, Ramirez, Drummond, Odukoya, Sexton all get cut? Possibly practice team?
Thanks! This is EMU79s specialty.

No I don't follow pro football closely. I agree with some posters that practice squad might be the next move for some of these players. Sow has the option of joining the CFL.

Sow and Sexton as far as I can tell still TBA

Drummond and Ramirez already talked about but Odukoya was cut too (seems like kind of a surprise based off of searching his name on twitter)

In other news, Patriots traded Nick Folk so they will be keeping Chad Ryland!

I read that Sow is the starting RT for the Patriots. He's not going anywhere.

Drummond was cut reluctantly as the Lions opted to load up on defense and keep only 5 WRs, not 6.

So I think the final count of former Eagles to make 53 man rosters is three:

Andrew Wylie
Sidy Sow
Chad Ryland

...oh wait I guess it is four. Some guy named Crosby seems to have made the Raiders squad. Never heard of him and can't recall him doing much at Eastern

EDIT: I had to edit this after finding out POC didn't make it.

I expect Ramirez and Drummond to be on practice squads

POC got cut. The Bucs were harsh on EMU players.

I'm seeing that O'Connor was cut...

You beat me to the scoop. POC made it further than most people thought. How many years of service? He could always catch on with someone too.

Bummer!! I thought I had seen him on their final roster.

DD is now on the Lions practice squad.

Sexton with ATL and Jose with Tampa practice squads.

And Odukoya is with the Titans.

Min. salary for practice player is 12k per week. 12k x 18 weeks, forexample.
