Aug 25 article has only 8 of 11 draftees
making it to the final 53 man roster, with
draftee DL Chauncey Golston & Quinton
Bohanna & OL Matt Farniok not making
it to the final 53 man roster.

Aug 25 article agrees with that although
it moves CB C.J. Goodwin from CB spot
to full-time special teamer spot for some
reason.
/> .> Safety (4) Donovan Wilson, Damontae Kazee, Jayron
/> .> Kearse, Israel Mukuamu
.> Aug 16 article replaces drafted rookie Israel
.> Mukuamu with safety signed after original

Aug 25 article has 5 safeties including
Malik Hooker being added to the list
in the July 18 article.
/> .> Linebacker (5) Micah Parsons, Keanu Neal, Leighton
/> .> Vander Esch, Jaylon Smith, Jabril Cox
.> Aug 16 article agrees with that.
Aug 25 article, no changes.
/> .> Cornerbacks (7) Trevon Diggs, Anthony Brown, Jourdan
/> .> Lewis, Kelvin Joseph, Nahshon Wright, C.J. Goodwin,
/> .> Maurice Canady
.> Aug 16 article agrees with that.
Aug 25 article simply moves C.J. Goodwin
to full time special teamer for some reason.
/> .> Defensive Line (9) DeMarcus Lawrence, Randy Gregory,
/> .> Neville Gallimore, Brent Urban, Osa Odighizuwa, Chauncey
/> .> Golston, Tarell Basham, Carlos Watkins, Bradlee Anae

Aug 25 article has 10 defensive linemen,
including players Justin Hamilton, Dorance
Armstrong, & Ron'Dell Carter who were not
on July 18 article, and absence of Trysten
Hill & rookies Chancey Golston & Quinton
Bohanna.
/> .> Offensive Line (9) Tyron Smith, La’el Collins, Zack Martin,
/> .> Connor Williams, Tyler Biadasz, Connor McGovern, Ty
/> .> Nsekhe, Josh Ball, Brandon Knight

Aug 25 article has only 8 offensive linemen,
& has Terence Steele in place of Josh Ball
& Brandon Knight.
/> .> Tight End (3) Blake Jarwin, Dalton Schultz, Sean McKeon
.> Aug 16 article agrees with that but
.> Sean's injury in Cards game may pre-

Aug 25 article thinks Sean McKeon will
be on final roster despite Sean's high
ankle sprain & doesn't think Jeremy has
done enough to make the final roster.
/> .> Receiver (6) Amari Cooper, CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup,
/> .> Cedrick Wilson, Noah Brown, Simi Fehoko
.> Aug 16 article agrees with that although
.> it mentions Malik Turner's good preseason

Aug 25 article stays with the 6 receivers
on the original July 18 post.
/> .> Running back (4) Ezekiel Elliott, Tony Pollard, Rico Dowdle,
/> .> Sewo Olonilua
.> Aug 16 article has FB Nick Ralston
.> in place of Sewo Olonilua (currently
.> missing time with injury) & mentions

Aug 25 article replaces Sewo Olonilua
with FB Nick Ralston.
/> .> Quarterback (2) Dak Prescott, Garrett Gilbert
.> Aug 16 article agrees with that.
Aug 25 article replaces Garrett Gilbert with
Cooper Rush due to Garrett under-perform-
ing in 3 preseason games & Cooper Rush
having an excellent game against the Texans.
DiNucci's 3 interceptions in Texans game
may have ended any chance he'd be on the
final 53 man roster.
Also, many think one of the veteran QBs cut
from other teams may be signed or may be
traded for either before or after final cuts are
made.
