The NFL’s All-IR and All-Suspended Teams

The regular season has yet to start and there’s already been a ridiculous amount of attrition in these regards–so much, in fact, that we can almost fill out an entire starting lineup each with only players on IR and then players on a suspension.  Unfortunately, the overturning of Tom Brady’s suspension really hurt the cause of the All-Suspended team.  I guess they can run a bunch of the Wildcat and the wishbone offense, then?

I am going to do a different format on this post. Since this is the final preseason game, a lot of players will be cut in the next day that may have played their last NFL game. Some will make the team and others may go off to another team. In this post, I want to focus on the players who were riding on the roster bubble with 10 players I think played well and 10 players that didn’t. Please keep in mind that these players may be competing against each other and these are my initial observations. Without further ado,
