Apparently the Jeremy Clark rumors were untrue as Ian Scott beat him out. Clark will likely be on the practice squad.
Akeem Jordan was the biggest surprise. I had no idea he was going to make the team. He is another UFA.
At cornerback, UFA Nick Graham beat out Rashard Barksdale. Barksdale is a project; he only played one year of college ball but is an excellent athlete. Expect these two to battle it out again in camp next near.
At safety, UFA Marcus Paschal beat out CJ Gaddis. I played poker with Gaddis' agent a while ago and got to meet CJ so I was rooting for him. Like Barksdale, I expect him to be on the practice squad and battle it out again next year.
Sav Rocca did in fact beat out Dirk Johnson. Greg Lewis will return punts, Buck will return kicks.
