I don't remember either.
It's is really cool to have good WRs.

I can see Burbridge getting picked up due to his special teams ability. Robinson has experience with both the 49ers and Falcons. I could see Seattle or Arizona picking him up. Both have largely underwhelming WR situations.
Bourne right now would easily be the 3rd best WR on the Cardinals. Outside of Fitz their situation is a mess. Nobody has really stood out or stepped up.

Pats released Kenny Britt. You figure they have to be calling us right? Or are we overrating how good our depth is?

256 yds last year and he's 29. Bourne had 257 as a rook. BB didn't use Britt and won't miss him.

I'll predict Bourne & Burbridge. ST emphasis with strong coverage (Mostert, Burbridge) and strong punter returners (Taylor, Pettis).

Nah Bourne has developed good chemistry with Jimmy G., I doubt he's cut well at least 85% sure he'll be on the roster.

To clarify, I think both Bourne and Burbridge make the 53; James gets cut and gets signed to the practice squad.

Bourne is a lock. Anybody who watched any of the games can see he has obvious talent. The way he outstretches and secures the ball is impressive. Cutting bourne would be a disaster. He would get snatched up so fast and actually play for some other team.

I don't see this as much of a battle. Garcon, Goodwin, Taylor, Pettis, Bourne, James all make it

How many WRs are we keeping?
MG, PG, TT, DP, KB are all locks
They might keep Burbridge for ST & might place James on the PS
