He hasn't been...at all. In every TC report I've read(which is just about every day), they mention Givens burning someone. They've also mentioned some drop issues with him. So you take the good and the bad but from these reports, Givens has been really effective on deep passes and has gotten good separation in the red-zone it seems.
It's just TC though. But he hasn't been quiet.

I heard today that DX is back on the sideline... I didn't even know he was back but apparently after only 2 practices he got injured again. Last I heard, the Rams haven't said what the injury(s) are.  Shame... |

I've seen this post or one like it too many times. DX is going to be in a wheel chair at the age of 40 if he isn't careful.

Sorry Yrba1, It was something i heard on the radio (101 ESPN) while at work. Its not exactly big news, but I'll try to find you a link. I came across one or two reports yesterday but I'm having trouble finding one today. |

wasnt sure where to put this but i read on a different article on the general section about players people would be surprised to see get cut from their respective teams and i think some would say no to this but i have been a fan of marc mariani's from the titans and some of the people who follow tennessee closely think he might be on the chopping block. if he is i wouldnt mind him being signed to us. he is quick, he is a dangerous return man, and i think he could benefit sam on offense and take returns back for tds on special teams.

| First big cut down to 75 will be on the 27th (Monday) after the Dallas game. It will be interesting to see who gets cut and who doesn't in the next week since it feels like our roster has much more talent than it has had in recent years. |

Danario Alexander's chances of making this team are getting smaller and smaller. I guarantee he gets cut.

I want DX to succeed too but it is getting to the point he is never on the field so he won't develop and him taking a roster spot will only make the Rams miss out on another WR they could try to develop. |

Yeah it's basically wasting a roster spot. Would much rather take my chances on a younger guy.

| The way Austin Pettis has looked early in the preseason, I'd say we keep him over Danario. And thats tough for me to say because I pretty much dream about having Danario's babies. |

So far I like what I seen from Calvin Middleton. I hope he makes the practice squad. |
