Bandit's Crack at the 53-man Roster


Recommended Posts

We were discussing in the Box o' Shout, so here's my take:

 

QBs (3) - Taylor, EJ, Cassel

RBs (4) - McCoy, Karlos, Dixon, Brown

FBs (1) - Felton

TEs (4) - Clay, Matthewleemulligansmith, Gragg, Gray

WRs (6) - Watkins, Woods, Harvin, Hogan, Goodwin, Easley

OTs (4) - Glenn, Henderson, Kouandjio, either Darryl Johnson or someone from another team's cuts

OGs (3) - Incognito, Miller, Richardson

Cs (2) - Wood and Urbik

 

Ks (2) - Carpenter and Gay

P (1) - Schmidt

LS (1) - Sanborn

 

Interior DL (4) - Kyle, C. Bryant, R. Bryant, S. Charles

DEs (3) - Mario, Hughes, Carrington

LBs (6) - Brown, Bradham, Lawson, Enemkpali, Steward, Johnson

CBs (5) - Gilmore, Darby, Robey, Brooks, Butler

Ss (4) - Aaron, Graham, Rambo, Duke

 

Suspended - Dareus

NFI - McKelvin

 

********************

 

The only thing I struggled with was 7 WRs vs. 4 OTs. I just think that Roman will want more beef up front.

 

Thoughts?

I have been a supporter of keeping 3 QBs. But, with Fred getting cut and the guys we need to re-sign, I'm starting to think Cassel gets cut. I think we then keep a 7th receiver(Thompson or Davis), because our WRs play special teams too. Simms to PS.

I'd say that's pretty close to what the final roster will look like on day 1.

Though I'm less sure about Hogan making it and Thompson not.

They might IR Goodwin, might not... depends on how hurt he is.

 

Somebody's going to get a good RB and WR courtesy of the 2015 Buffalo Bills cuts.

I'd add Thigpen (if healthy) and drop one of the tackles. I'd probably only keep 3 TE because they aren't very good (but I think they will keep 4). When Dareus returns one of those LBs probably goes (or maybe Carrington). When Leo returns Butler may be gone as well. JMO

I'm anticipating a Leo/Butler swap at some point. I think when Dareus comes back, it'll be the 4th OT that goes.

how many years experience guarantees a salary if on the week 1 roster? is it 4 years to be a vested veteran? that may play a role in the 52, and 53rd guys that you expect dareus and leo to bump. no need to give a full years pay for 1 game.

Can't see Darryl Johnson on the team. Dude looked horrible in preseason. Waiting to see if we keep all 3 QBs. Carrington may lose his spot because of too much depth, though I do like him. And Butler may also be a casualty when McKelvin comes back. Is he PS eligible?

I like it! My question would be Hogan or Goodwin on IR? Thompson on the team. Or the 4th T?

who can we cut and put to PS from this list? I would take Thompson on this list. He has more upside then Hogan or Goodwin, especially with Easley emerging and showing he can play at the 4th WR position.

 

I think Darryl Johnson could be cut when someone comes back - Leodis or Dareus - and then put to PS.


Easley's not going anywhere.

agreed, watching the game again, easley is a solid player and pretty dang good. he's blocking, he's catching. every preseason its like this.
