Ok, so far as I know, these are the current Bulls in NFL uniforms and are competing for spots or have spots on NFL squads.  This should be an easy reference for those who want to keep track:

Scott McCready - (KC shoulder Injury)

Kawika Mitchell - (KC)

Dejuan Green - (Oakland)

Andre Hall - (Chicago)

J.R. Reed - (Philly)

Anthony Henry - (Dallas)

Levi Newton - (Detroit not listed in Depth chart but still on roster)

added

Frank Davis - (Detroit)

If anyone has any more that I missed, add them.  We could do a weekly post on their performances.

Hey my Canuck friend....that should be Frank Davis with the Lions, not Levi, eh?  Frank signed as an UFA when Andre signed with the Bucs.  Otherwise, it looks good.

Normal

Breakdown of chances:

Anthony Henry, JR Reed, & Kawicka Mitchell are obviously starters for their teams.

The rest:

DeJuan Green has a battle ahead as the Raiders have a lot of Running Backs already.  Lamont Jordan, Zack Crockett, and Rod "He Hate Me" Smart seem to be the top of the depth chart.  The Raiders have six other running backs in addition to DeJuan Green.  The Raiders play on ESPN's Monday Night Football tonight - so stay up late and see if Green makes it into the game.

Andre Hall saw some action in the Bears first game last week -- 3 carries for 6 yards.  He will be getting more carries in this week's game, Friday night at home against San Diego -- carried nationwide on CBS.  Injuries to Cedric Benson and Thomas Jones will keep them out of at least one more preseason game.  This will be Andre's chance to show the Bears and the NFL that he belongs.

Frank Davis & Levi Newton are hard to pin down.  Bullumni noted that Newton is not listed on the depth chart on the Lions website.  The NFL.com site does not listed Newton on the Lions roster.  Davis is listed as the #3 LG on the Lions' website' depth chart.  Most NFL teams do not keep that many offensive linemen -- last year, Detroit had 7 OLs on their active team, 1 on their injured reserver, and Levi Newton as their only OL on the practice squad.  The Lions don't play on a nationally televised pre-season game (all games are carried by Detroit's UPN-50) -- their game this week against the Browns will be shown on the NFL Network at Midnight Friday night/Saturday morning.

Scott McReady is currently listed near the bottom of the Chiefs' WR depth chart, probably because of his injury.  He also didn't play in the Chiefs' first preseason game.  The Chiefs do play at the NY Giants on Thursday, Nationally televised on FOX.


Good list Bullumni!!  At least we have the chance to watch a few of these games.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
