Preseason has started,and we got to see the hall of fame game.Most of us not in South Florida,are regulated to beat reporters story about their takes,and tweets about player in practice.

Whom are you rooting for to make the final roster?

 Mike Gillislee. Local boy and Gator. I hope he does well enough to hang on and mature!

Brian ... do you have any doubt the #3 overall pick will make the team? I think you are pretty safe barring some crazy off the field stuff.

I'm pulling for our trio of rookie Gators, Jelani Jenkins, Mike Gillislee and Caleb Sturgis. I really like Gillislee, and think he has the potential to be better than either Lamar Miller or Thomas. Not sure he'll make more of an impact this season than those two, but I think he can be groomed into a quality starting RB.

Jeff Fuller. Liked him last year and still like him. Was on the practice squad most of last year, would like to see him make the 53 man roster this year.

I'm more worried about Gillislee.  I think he's raw and needs time, but has high ceiling.  However, I don't think he will clear waivers to go to the practice squad, and I don't know if the team will carry all these RB's.  Someone has to be the odd man out.

Unless they start contributing to special teams.  I wonder if they give him a shot at returning kicks...

Touche.  Especially because Jeff Ireland has a history of cutting ties with early draft picks that don't work out.  See Pat White and Patrick Turner for examples.

^^I'm ok with that.  I'm not OK with wasting high picks on bums, but I'd rather cut losses than keep guys around that aren't working out.  I think Daniel Thomas currently still has some value, though.  He really needs to step it up.

I forgot Michael Egnew. I really want to see him make the team. I think he could be an outstanding receiver if he can just get the rest of what it requires to be a TE down.

Ochocinco.  Reports are he is trying to make a comeback.

Chad "The Hound" Bumphis

I like Bumphis as well and hopes he makes the team or practice squad. Little surprised he wasn't drafted. Bumphis had a very productive senior season in college. I think he led all college WR's in TD receptions with 12 last year.  He reminds me a lot of Davone Bess in many ways. Same height and weight as Bess and a guy who just caught a lot of passes in college and produced in the SEC without having help from great QB play. And I think there is something to be said for just catching a lot of passes in college that helps translate to the NFL level.
