[Isaac Curtis: The Real #85]

Nobody is going to claim Ford, Hill or Smith so use that roster spot for someone else until Ossai gets put on the IR.

I like this train of thought. 

6. Collins (PUP) 
6. Carman, LT 
7. Scharping, OG/C

Brown vs Adeniji vs Smith for #8. But I am scanning the waiver wire.  

Agree that Ford, Smith, Hill,,Adeniji, Brown, Gilliam, & Kirkland are extremely unlikely to be claimed. Ford is a vested vet, anyway.
