Post by readjack »

The senior list has been cut from 60 (50 plus ties) to 31 (25 plus ties). Next stage is nine in three weeks. The list:

QUARTERBACKS (3): Ken Anderson, Charlie Conerly, Jim Plunkett
RUNNING BACKS (5): Ottis Anderson, Roger Craig, Chuck Foreman, Cecil Isbell, Paul “Tank” Younger
WIDE RECEIVERS (5): Billy "White Shoes” Johnson, Stanley Morgan, Art Powell, Sterling Sharpe, Otis Taylor
OFFENSIVE LINEMEN (7): Ox Emerson, Joe Jacoby, Mike Kenn, Bob Kuechenberg, George Kunz, Jim Tyrer, Al Wistert
DEFENSIVE LINEMEN (2): Jim Marshall, Harvey Martin
LINEBACKERS (5): Carl Banks, Maxie Baughan, Larry Grantham, Clay Matthews Jr., Tommy Nobis
DEFENSIVE BACKS (4): Lester Hayes, Albert Lewis, Eddie Meador, Everson Walls

I botched the typing on my list of "eliminated" so if you want to see who was removed, link is here:

My #1 senior remains Sterling Sharpe.

Happy for new additions, Foreman, Martin, Emerson, Grantham, Younger ... disappointed Brown or Ellard couldnt advance. Tasker didnt make it either ...

I felt he could Robert, but probably not the final 5. We will see if the new additions can shake up the queue?

I’m not entirely surprised. Didn’t he make it to the final few last year?

The amount of times I get referred to as "James" when I'm quite certain no one here is unfamiliar with the name "Jameis" never ceases to amaze me.

I'm going to guess funny backwards running man makes it in before Martin gets his shot.
