Ibrahim and Hall would be 2 that I think I would like to see more from based on how little camp time they had an what I saw from them in the Philly game.
Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?

I am guessing that cutting a player keeps the door open for signing them to the Practice Squad, whereas terminating a contract means..."see ya"

I'm thinking McBride could be a PS candidate. Or the Vikings could replace him with another team's castaway. Owen Porter is possible too, but the Vikings have a lot of other young edge talent in Carter, Murphy and Richter who probably won't make the 53.

Could be. Ibrahaim might also. They haven't had a lot of time to evaluate him. There's always movement on Practice Squad.

A terminated contact means a vested(veteran) player is free to sign w/ any team w/o clearing waivers.
For a team predicted to have just 5 or 6 wins, there are a # of highly intriguing battles for the 53 shaping up.
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!
The first round like this generally bring zero surprises. Tomorrow before the 3 pm central deadline will bring harder decisions and more dramatic cuts/signings.
