Next Cut Predictions

Why? I know he's a special teams guy, but Cash appeared to do well in STs in the games so far and I think Cash appears to have legitimate LB upside as well. What does he do that can't be replaced? Honest question.

Just about everyone CAN be replaced, particularly our backups. With that being said, maybe you saw something in the past 3 games that I didn't. With so little reps, I'm always inclined to take the undrafted guy who's been on two playoff rosters with us over the undrafted guy who's played in a couple of preseason games. 

I've watched the last two games in bars, much to my distaste. I may have completely missed a big play or two by Cash.

I believe these next players will be Cut. Yes I know it leaves us with 63, I am counting players on the PS also.

Hawkins

Rigsbee

Larsen

Norris

Ben Jacobs

Dixon

Simmons

Young

Delaire

Crume

Miley

Unless we bring in a DE I would be surprised to see the prince of delaire cut

I reviewed the roster tonight, and I came up with what I think are 46 - 48 locks.   My list of locks includes 6 WRs (with Byrd & Bersin making it), and 6 LBs, with Cash making it..., of course 1 or 2 of those could get sent to the PS... we'll see.

Here's the list of those I feel confident will make the 53, in alphabetical order:

  • Addison, Mario   DE
  • Anderson, Derek   QB
  • Artis-Payne, Cameron   RB
  • Benjamin, Kelvin   WR
  • Benwikere, Bene   CB
  • Bersin, Brenton   WR
  • Boston, Tre   S
  • Bradberry, James   CB
  • Brown, Philly   WR
  • Butler, Vernon   DT
  • Byrd, Damiere   WR
  • Cash, Jeremy   LB
  • Coleman, Kurt   S
  • Davis, Thomas   LB
  • Dickson, Ed   TE
  • Ealy, Kony   DE
  • Funchess, Devin   WR
  • Gano, Graham   K
  • Ginn, Jr., Ted   WR
  • Gradkowski, Gino   C
  • Horton, Wes   DE
  • Jansen, J.J.   LS
  • Johnson, Charles   DE
  • Jones, Colin   S
  • Kalil, Ryan   C
  • Klein, A.J.   LB
  • Kuechly, Luke   LB
  • Lee, Andy   P
  • Lotulelei, Star   DT
  • Mayo, David   LB
  • McClain, Robert   CB
  • Newton, Cam   QB
  • Norwell, Andrew   G
  • Oher, Michael   T
  • Olsen, Greg   TE
  • Remmers, Mike   T
  • Sanchez, Zack   CB
  • Scott, Chris   G
  • Short, Kawann   DT
  • Soliai, Paul   DT
  • Stewart, Jonathan   RB
  • Thompson, Shaq   LB
  • Tolbert, Mike   FB
  • Turner, Trai   G
  • Webb, Joe   QB
  • Whittaker, Fozzy   RB
  • Williams, Daryl   T
  • Worley, Daryl   CB

 

By position and unit that shapes up as follows:

C 2   OFF 23
CB 5   DEF 22
DE 4   ST 3
DT 4     48
FB 1      
G 3      
K 1      
LB 6      
LS 1      
P 1      
QB 3      
RB 3      
S 3      
T 3      
TE 2      
WR 6      
  48      

 

So, 5 positions are open for the 53. 

While I know DG says he doesn't play the "we need 2 of those, and 3 of these position players" game, obviously some positions above are too thin.

We need another safety, another TE, another O-line (G or T); another D-line. 

My guess is that these will be:the 4 players in those positions:

  • Simonson, Scott   TE
  • Hawkins, Donald   T
  • Love, Kyle    DT  (or possibly a free agent DE instead)
  • Free Agent Safety   S

 

That leaves 1 remaining roster spot.  I see 3-4 guys at different positions battling for this final spot on the 53.  For now, given his ST play, my money is on Wegher:

  • Brandon Wegher,  RB
  • Ben Jacobs,  LB
  • Marcus Lucas,  TE
  • and maybe Lou Young,  CB.

(If healthy, Dean Marlowe would be included in this group battling for #53.  Given his injury, I've got him on the PS list, below)

Here are guys I think could make the practice squad (note, I've not verified eligibility), who would likely be joined by 2 or 3 of the guys battling for #53 on the roster.

Delaire, Ryan   DE
Crume, Eric   DT
Yankey, David   G
Blechen, Brian   LB
Marlowe, Dean   S
Sandland, Beau   TE
Garrett, Keyarris   WR

 

That leaves the following players as cuts (perhaps some might make the IR if injured...)

Ball, Marcus   S
Dixon, Travell   S
Larsen, Tyler   G
Miley, Arthur   DE
Norris, Jared   LB
Norwood, Kevin   WR
Rigsbee, Jordan   T
Simmons, Jalen   RB
Thomas, Robert   DT
Wallace, Eric   TE
Webster, Larry   DE
Williams, Teddy   CB

This should be its own thread.  Fantastic job.
