Personally, I'm happy for the most part with the decisions made by the coaches. Like many of you, I'm surprised we kept both Raymer and Friedman. You'd think Wilson would've been a better option, especially to back up Jansen (although Ray Brown can do that too). I'm not sure Friedman has done much to stay with the team, but perhaps he's seen as the best backup option to Dockery. Raymer will be a valuable backup for his experience.

I'm also surprised we kept both Killings and Boschetti. I would've thought Warner would've made the team ahead of one of them, and I also wished we could've kept Aki Jones.

Despite Jacobs' injuries and Antonio Brown's drops, I'm not surprised that they're both with the team. If Jacobs returns, he will undoubtedly beat out Thrash and Brown for the 3rd spot, and he could eventually challenge for a starting position. Farris deserves to make the practice squad. Dyson might also make the PS, although his best quality (veteran leadership) is something we already have in Patten and Thrash. Parson had some nice kick returns, but they were due mostly to bad tackling; he probably won't be back. Gotta feel bad for him.
