The position numbers don't quite match up but according to the cuts, I think this is the final roster of 53: 36 DAVID BARRETT CB 34 DWIGHT LOWERY CB 30 DREW COLEMAN CB 21 JUSTIN MILLER CB 42 AHMAD CARROLL DB 24 DARRELLE REVIS DB 33 ERIC SMITH S 27 ABRAM ELAM S 25 KERRY RHODES S 93 KENYON COLEMAN DE 92 SHAUN ELLIS DE 70 MIKE DEVITO DE 98 KAREEM BROWN DL 91 SIONE POUHA DT 77 KRIS JENKINS DT 69 C.J.

Unless we have an injury to TJ or Leon, Chatman is gone. I can't see him surviving on a Mangini team. Besides we'll probably have to pick up a RB more or less immediately to get the guy used to our offense.
waived injured if he passes waivers he is eligible for IR but all that is semantics - the guy is not on the final roster
Those are the guys I thought would be on the final roster. Expect one or two T on the practice squad: Bender and/or Garner. That's plenty. Actually I feel pretty good about our OL. Montgomery & Turner have been on the team for a year and have gone through the off-season conditioning together with the rest of the linemen. It develops good chemistry which is essential for OL play.
This says otherwise but you are right, it's all semantics. "Jets placed S Cameron Worrell on injured reserve, ending his season. Worrell was likely experiencing more knee woes after tearing his ACL in Week 13 as a Miami Dolphin last year." http://rotoworld.com/content/playernews.aspx?sport=NFL
I wouldn't rule it out of the question. We have no idea what's going to happen between now and week 6. I'm not necessarily trying to debate your opinion though. I just wanted to make the point that your opinion doesn't change the fact that he hasn't been cut.
Things to conclude from the final roster: 1) CS thought Ainge would be snapped up if put on the practice squad 2) Clowney might be able to come back from his injury this season 3) CS saw the same good play we did in Murrell and Cummings this preseason
