HAS MADE THE COLTS!!!!!! 3rd team MLB and special teams, but he made it. Way to go Mikey T. Colts apparently made cuts yesterday and Mike is listed on ESPN.com as third on the depth chart.

In other news, Eron is still on the ravens, they've cut two other receivers before him so he still might make it. He had a good game Thursday with a couple of big catches and a TD.

EDIT for mods. We know Mike has a few extra Is in his name, but no extra Ms. Can someone remove that?

Errr, I hate to bust your bubble Relative ways, and i think Tauiliili has a good shot, but the Colts have NOT finished cutting yet.

They cutted several players yesterday but are not quite yet up to the 53 players mandated by the NFL at 6PM today.

Tauiliili was cut :-(

Hopefully someone picks him up for at least the practice squad.

Bailey continues to impress the Steelers. He won a back-up linebacker spot - the Stillers cut last year's 3RD round pick, Bruce Davis from UCLA, to keep Patrick. As an undrafted rookie last year, Bailey was the Steeler's rookie of the year because of his work on special teams (which doesn't say much for the draft picks last year).

Big Colts fan (I must like Royal Blue and WHite 'cause I"m a Dodgers fan too).

I wanted Mike T as my 7th rounder for the Colts. When they got him as a FA I was thrilled. I think he lost out for Humber who was a surprise. I did think he way outplayed Keiaho and should have made the team over him - Keiaho is a vet who knows the system though. Nevertheless, Mike T did look a little lost against Cincy and was beaten at the point of attack a few times. Would like to see him on the PS. Either way, hope he makes it somewhere.

The Ravens signed Eron Riley to their practice squad.

That's good to hear. I didn't see Riley's name much in the box scores, but he must have impressed somebody to get that job. Getting paid to do what you love is hard to knock.
