Martell

Mallett

Mallett, a former star at Arkansas Pine-Bluff, rushed for a franchise record 213 yards against the Montreal Alouettes in early September. His receiving ability will be a good fit in Eagles coach Andy Reid’s offense if he makes the 2010 roster. With Brian Westbrook a longshot to return in 2010, Mallett will offer depth behind LeSean McCoy and Eldra Buckley.

The exodus of former CFL stars continues. Mallett was Canada’s rookie of the year with the Montreal Alouettes in 2009, but he was never a good bet to stick as a third-down back with the Eagles. Pope saw action in an injury-depleted Philly secondary late last season.

Ndukwe started 18 games with the Ravens, Dolpins, and Chiefs from 2007-09 before falling out of the league in 2010. He’ll fight for a backup spot this offseason. Mallet, a former CFL star, spent time on the Eagles’ and Browns’ practice squads in 2010.

Mallett was just waived yesterday once J.J. Arrington came aboard, but the Eagles apparently changed their minds. Regardless, Mallett is a long shot to make the team.

Hall had an outside shot at the active roster before putting the ball on the ground in preseason. Mallett will act as the No. 5 ball-carrying option for now, behind LeSean McCoy, Mike Bell, Leonard Weaver, and Eldra Buckley.

This confirms earlier predictions that Scott is unlikely to make the final roster. McLane even speculates that the Eagles may choose to keep CFL stud Martell Mallett on the practice squad over Scott.

The CFL’s 2009 rookie of the year with the Montreal Alouettes lost his roster spot to J.J. Arrington, who offers a similar skill-set with superior talent.

The former CFL star had no chance to make a Giants roster that is once again deep at tailback.
