Day to Day
The NFL decided that there would be no more gradual cutting of the rosters this year and the Eagles aren't waiting for final cuts on Saturday to make their roster moves. This is a whiff of what nearly every team will be doing come Friday. More personnel trades will happen than ever before.
Nearly every team has 90 players on their roster today. Come Saturday they'll have to slice 37 players to get to the mandatory 53. They can't stash any players and can only keep guys who are on IR. No Practice Squad signings until Sunday.
Teams will be calling each other trying to reinforce positions or replace players who were injured and trades will be the order of the day.
Example.....Patriots call the Seahawks...."You guys have 7 outside pass rushers. Who you going to cut?" Seahawks respond, "You got 7 WRs, who you going to cut?" How about we swap?
