Eagles roster: Predicting the 16-man practice squad for 2021 as the roster cutdown deadline approaches
The Eagles are a little over 24-hours away from having to cut their roster down to 53 players before the 4:00 p.m. deadline on Tuesday.
Following the final round of cuts, GM Howie Roseman will start the process of assembling his 16-player practice squad, which can now include up to six players with more than two accrued seasons.
Here’s our prediction for the Eagles practice squad ahead of Tuesday’s deadline.

The Eagles are making moves to reduce the roster down to 53 players and rookie JaQuan Bailey joined Cary Angeline on the waiver wire.
Bailey shattered Iowa State’s sack record, previously held by Shawn Moorehead, logging 25.5 to Moorehead’s 18.5.

Big 12 Preview: Prospects to watch and team predictions for the 2020 college football season
The Big 12 doesn’t get enough respect for how much NFL talent it places in the NFL every year. I don’t mean just based on draft selections either, but lasting power and effectiveness. The Big 12 has a ton of quality talent to watch for in the 2020 season. The conference may even have the best overall college football team.
Baylor Bears: Vegas Win Total- 7.5
Everyone is expecting Baylor to be terrible this season, but with the fantastic Charlie Brewer returning and some explosive weapons surrounding him this may be a more interesting bet than people think. This may only be Dave Aranda’s first season as the head guy, but the former LSU defensive coordinator is primed to hit the ground running. Prediction: Over 7.5
Top Prospects:
Terrel Bernard, ILB, 6-1, 222 pounds, Jr.: A top-flight All-Big 12 linebacker, Bernard had an extremely productive 2019 season leading the Bears with 112 tackles while also recording 9.5 tackles for loss, five quarterback hurries, 4.5 sacks, three fumble recoveries and an interception.
Charlie Brewer, QB, 6-1, 206 pounds, Sr.: Brewer gets very little respect in regard to draft hype, but he is likely going to own every Baylor career passing record and surpass former Heisman Trophy winner and first-round selection, Robert Griffin III.
Connor Galvin, OT, 6-7, 302 pounds, Jr.: The All-Big 12 tackle enters his third season as the starter on the left side and looks to have big time potential with elite size to go with some solid tools.
