FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- There are always surprises when the New England Patriots form their initial 53-man roster, and I will have a final projection posted for Friday morning. The projection actually includes just 52 players, as I left a spot open for at least one outside addition.
Here were some of the main things I wrestled with on the projection:
Could Shea McClellin be headed for IR? Without knowing the specifics of what has held linebacker Shea McClellin out of most of the preseason/training camp, it’s a challenge to project his place on the roster.
