Note: not all the players listed for competing for a practice squad can not make it.

1.i dont think we carry 5 WR unless one of them do KR/PR

2.Cadogan will make the team as a backup LT

3.Bernadeau will also be the backup center

4.i think irvin is a lock to make the team no comp for him

5.we will carry a backup run stuffer at DT thats were Lonnie Harvey comes in

6.i dont think jason carter or C.j wilson go to the PS if they dont show up in preseason i think they get cut.

[MadHatter]

But Taylor has home field advantage being that he has been here a year, and went to college in north carolina, and all that. Most people believe that does not matter but it does help in some regard. He will at least make the Practice Squad if not the team.

I would expect someone in need of a speed rusher to pick him up if we place him on the PS.

1. We will deffintley carry 5 wide outs, we carried 6 last year. Smith, Moose, Jarrett, Hackett, Moore (was signed in the middle of the season, McMahon (signed in the middle of the year). Robinson can return kicks if needed and still line up in four wide receiver sets.

2. Cadogan should make the team but you never know.

3. Bernadeau will be a good back up center

4. Irvin will still have to fend of competition because the defensive line spots are going to be so competitive now that Peppers has signed the tender.

5. Harvey should make it as a back-up run stopper, but he still has to compete for a roster spot, because Maake does not get much time off, so they may not grab a big back-up run stopper. Also Harvey faces competition with Favorite.

6. If Carter doesn't make the team he will deffintley be on the PS. If C.J. Wilson doesn't make the team he may or may not be placed on the PS.

Taylor can't make the pratice squad. He is not eligable anymore. He was on the team for all 16 games last year and was active for more than 4 games. He either makes it or gets cut but he will not be on the pratice squad.

this is the prob..i dont think backup DT compeptition will be competitive we dont have anybody yet.. because of that corey irvin is a lock no competition for him

Harvey will make it because he is a run stopper like kemo..i think fox learned his leason last year of what happens when we dont have that..

and i dont think we put jason carter on the PS if he does not make it..i think we just cut him

*potential returners

To me this is the one I would choose. However, I am not sold on us carrying three TE again this season. Barnidge is kind of Rosario and King in one package. I think the decision to wait for surgery for Rosario shows a lack of commitment. To me it appears as if it was planned so he could miss mini-camps and OTA's. Since we are keeping 2 FB and 2 Kickers we could use the extra spot for an Jason Carter, a DT or OL.

reason i don't have a problem with having 3 TEs is they are all 3 very capable receivers plus you add in goodson and fiammetta (known for having good hands) and you have just strengthened the passing corps and kept your commitment to having solid blocking. plus one or two of them will be players on special teams. we need their experience after losing so many last year.
