Spartans in the NFL

Run. First down. Will be 1st and goal from the 5. Down 8.

Throws the fade, PI. Ball placed on 1. 2:21 left.

TD run. Down 2 now. I assume they'll go for 2 and miss on purpose.

Cook keeper sweep to the right, not a designed run, gets tackled at the 1. SHOCKING. 16-14 Seattle.

I love Nicole Zaloumis. Really. I would go Oscar Pistorious to spend some quality time with her. I don't mean in the murder sense. I mean in the losing your leg sense. She is fucking smoking hot.

Bullough, Heath, & Mumphrey make the Texans 53 man - Drummond on IR for them.

I believe I saw Taiwan Jones got cut. That's a borderline shocker. I don't think I saw LT's name on the cut list, though.

Marcus Rush a surprise cut for SF. Had 6 sacks this preseason. Guessing they're hoping to sneak him onto the PS.

Keshawn was cut in NE. Might be the end of the road for him.

LT does in fact make the final 53 man of the NYJ.

Does anybody have more undrafted players in the NFL than MSU?

I'm really surprised at Jones. The Jets were calling him the guy who was going to take over for Harris for the next decade a few months ago. He didn't even make their PS. Myles White did btw. Have to think another team will scoop him up but I haven't heard anything.

Spartans in the NFL: Tracking who made 53-man rosters

Michigan State had five players picked in the 2016 NFL Draft, but will have one more than that number starting their rookie season in the league.

Six new faces will be joining the ranks of the Spartans in the NFL when the season kicks off this week. After NFL teams cut their rosters to the final 53 over the weekend, the number of former Spartans in those ranks stands at 22, after rosters were cut to their final 53 over the weekend.

Sloppy or lazy journalism.  If you're going to throw out the number 22, the logical question is, "how does that compare to other schools?"

So here's something crazy: MSU's top 7 receivers from 2012 are now on NFL rosters (including 2 on defense).

LT had 7 catches? He was playing FB at the time, right? Can't say I remember him getting one catch.
