Here’s a look at some key position battles with final cuts needed less than 48 hours after the final preseason game:

WIDE RECEIVER

Safe: Santana Moss, Antwaan Randle El, James Thrash, Malcolm Kelly, Devin Thomas

On the bubble: Billy McMullen

In trouble: Anthony Mix, Horace Gant, Maurice Mann

Skinny: McMullen is in a similar situation as Mason, although the injuries that have slowed Kelly and Thomas could help him.

OFFENSIVE LINE

Safe: Chris Samuels, Jon Jansen, Pete Kendall, Randy Thomas, Casey Rabach, Stephon Heyer, Chad Rinehart, Jason Fabini

On the bubble: Justin Geisinger, Andrew Crummey, Todd Wade

In trouble: Devin Clark, Fred Matua, Tavares Washington

Skinny: Probably only one spot for one of the players trying to be the backup center or Wade, who has missed most of camp with an ankle injury.

LINEBACKERS

Safe: London Fletcher, Marcus Washington, Rocky McIntosh, H.B. Blades, Khary Campbell

On the bubble: Alfred Fincher

In trouble: David Holloway, Danny Verdun-Wheeler
