THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- They write these NFL rosters in pencil, never more so than when the cut down comes before the first regular-season game and when the trim goes from 75 to 53 players.
Their biggest cut on Saturday was linebacker Akeem Ayers -- who started for them last season and went to school at UCLA and nearby Verbum Dei High School.
Only sometimes these cuts do not end up being final cuts.
