Needed Servo Torque

Now that my team's season is over, we were thinking of doing some sort of T-shirt cannon attachment to our robot. Our plan is to make an assembly very similar to the camera assembly in the rookie kit using 2 hobby-like servos. Each servo has a torque of 125oz/in, and I am wondering about how much weight could each of these servos support, or how i would figure this out mathematically. Our turret my guess will weigh about 2-3 pounds. Also, is it safe to power these 2 servos off of the Digital Sidecar?
