Coming out of NFL preseason Week 4, we don't have a lot of new team evaluation. I believe the fourth preseason game is almost a waste for any player who has been in the league for more than three years. For coaches, the final preseason game is only valuable as it relates to the last three or four roster spots.
There is value for the young guys, the rookies and the fringe players. For them, the end of preseason can be nerve-racking. For veteran players—especially those who know they are going to make the team—this is the most exciting time of the year.
