Updated Roster Projection

[ShutDwn]

I think Norwood showed he is good enough to make the squad but I don't think he's better than Bersin or Byrd. Norwood has PS eligibility, he's worth trying to stash but he will get looked by desperate teams.

Anyone worried about Garrett can calm their jimmy clausens because he isn't getting poached. 

 

Really disappointing we haven't been ableto see Marlowe at all.

Hate to lose Wegher, but that prediction looks spot on

[The Dude]

I wish we had drafted another DE somewhere. I feel like we don't have the power there that we have had in past seasons.

Man I miss not having to hear "guys relax!! we can always just generate some pressure with the Safeties!"

 

I really hope Kony is ready to step up big.

Unless you think he'll contribute this year, don't worry about it. There are probably 10-15 better RBs coming in 2017.

One other note, maybe not all GMs are watching it, but I would also bet the incoming class of RBs will make it more likely that teams won't give up a roster spot to Wegher. I believe the rules are that if you snipe from the PS process, that player has to be on the 53. I don't think you can snipe a PS and put them on your PS.

You are correct.

But a player has to clear waivers before being assigned to the PS, correct?  If a team selects a player off of waivers, are they then also required to keep that player on the 53 like they would picking him off the PS?

What is different from last year? I'd rather have a healthy CJ than Jared Allen. The rest of the real contribution in Ealy and Addison is the same.

That said, I didn't really care for DEs outside of maybe Ogbah, but 2017 has a lot better DE class. Let's hope the depth guys or a guy who's released provide some good depth. I think we'll be as good as last year.

Yeah, for DEs and RBs, the 2017 draft class is prime meat on the hoof.

[top dawg]

We need to trade Klein for O-line or D-line depth (at DE). 

Not crazy about Dickson or Simonson. I think TE, DE and RB are setting up to be some acquisition priorities next year.

Did Redfern not do well? I thought he punted way better than Waters. He kicked off as well. I thought he did well.

He did very well but if here3 is a vet that has been cut, we would probably sign that guy.

[Omega Atrocity]

I'm pretty sure the Broncos are going to cut their punter Colquitt. I'd be really okay with him, I remember saying he should've been super bowl mvp (only half joking). He pinned us deep every possession.

Most notable, I have 6 WR's now with Hill dropped and Bersin and Byrd added. I also have seven LBs, they keep Cash and Jacobs, two very good special teams contributors. 

I think you may have nailed it Jeremy, this looks very plausible. 

I'm not convinced we'll find a better OT on waivers, so I think Hawkins or Willie Smith will make it.

he has outplayed Focoult and He was on the roster the past two years.

Foucault was really only on the roster in 2014.  He was on the PS for 15 of 16 games last year.  He was called up for 1 game as emergency O-line backup, but didn't play.

[KB_fan]

If we don't end up keeping 7 LBs, I wonder if we'd use that extra spot to keep 10 on the D-line?  

Given the questions about Delaire, and Horton's on and off the roster last year, I'm thinking there's a chance we might want to keep Love or another DT that would allow us to kick KK outside more often... I don't think Butler will be 100% ready to play a major role early in the season.  I expect him to increase his play over the course of the season, similarly to how Shaq increased his play last season.
