There's a scene from Family Guy, where the family is exiting a movie theater showing No Way Out, and Chris wonders aloud, "How does Kevin Costner keep finding work???" I think the same thing about Weeden.
It's rare that I actively root for a player to make roster but I am doing so for Ben Gardner. I believe he will be a good rotational player for this defensive line.

NFI stands for Non Football Injury.

Non-Football Injury. It really means an injury that occurred before the player was signed. While his injury was a college football injury, it was not an injury that occurred while he was with the Cowboys.
The rules are basically the same of the PUP/IR rules but there are differences in compensation.
He could be activated (moved to the 53) in week 7.

stickying this and having cuts made with a strike-through on names and a list for PS added at the bottom would be pretty cool IMHO.
As you note it would give us one handy post; even it did require lots of updating....
maybe a mod can help you.

I've been disappointed with Gardner. He just has not done much and he's played against some 3rd string OLinemen that are not very good.
He can blow up a block by a TE which he has done a few times, but he has not had much success against OLinemen. He did have 1 sack but he generally has not done much. He does look like he knows how to play the game, but I just don't know if he is strong enough or quick enough. Both Russell and Edwards look better physically.

I would like to see Dunbar get extended action.

The coaching staff knows what they have in Dunbar, so if he's on the bubble, what Gus Johnson can do would say more than what Dunbar can/can not

Minor point, but the injury doesn't necessarily have to have occurred prior to signing. For example, JPP of the NYFG could be placed on NFI because of the fireworks thing.

Yes, I started to include that explanation but I figured it would just make the answer more complicated when comparing it to the PUP. I'm not certain how it works if the injury occurs during the season. If JPP had been injured in September, could he go on NFI, not take up a roster spot and then return that same season?

22 need to be cut on Saturday by 3:00 PM.
I can easily get that down to 6 to 7 players, really to 4. Depending on how many they keep at certain positions.
Main one being if they keep 3 or 4. QB's.
5th WR or do they keep 6 which I doubt. Doubt they keep 4 RBs too.
8 or 9 OL
3 or 4 TE's
8 or 9 DB's
6 or 7 LB's until Ro returns
And then how many DL they keep 9, 10, 11 until Hardy returns
Not too hard to get to these last 4 or 5 to make the 53, just depends on the numbers game.
Also we will get a few cuts, then after all teams posture for getting their roster set. We will see a few more moves.
Like a vet player gets cut, keep a rookie, then sign the vet player after game one, waive the rookie and slip him on the PS.

Not a prediction but liked how you placed the potential cuts at the bottom of each position group. Sneaky, but very nice! My cuts:
QB Weeden, Brandon (I know Weeden makes but would be one of my cuts/trade)
QB Showers, Jameill (shown enough to PS?)
QB Vaughan, Dustin
RB Johnson, Gus
RB Malena, Ben
FB Agnew, Ray
WR Whitehead, Lucky (Lucky likely makes it but would rather have Jenkins)
WR Jenkins, A.J.
WR Gates, Clyde
WR Harwell, Nick
OL McDermott, Shane (PS candidate)
OL Patrick, Ronald
OL Wetzel, John
DL Bishop, Ken
DL Edwards, Lavar (going to lose some pretty good DL)
DL Obada, Efe (PS candidate)
DL Gardner, Ben (still PS eligible?)
DB McCray, Danny (If they keep Heath, then should not keep McCray)
DB Scott, Tim
DB Ross, Joel
DB Sweeting, Rod
LB Baggs, Donnie
LB Glaud, Ka'Lial
LB Johnson, Dakorey
That's 22 (not counting Weeden and one of Lucky/Jenkins). Someone will grab at least one of our young DL cuts.

I know Cowboys will not cut all three, but I would. Well, I would try to trade Weeden before I cut him.
