QB (3)- Henne, Thigpen, Pennington
RB (4)- Brown, Williams, Cobbs, Hilliard
FB (1)- Polite
WR (5)- Marshall, Hartline, Bess, Moore, Wallace (probably wrong, and they keep Turner, but Wallace has more upside and plays special teams, so I'll stick with him. And ultimately, it could be Sam Hurd if the Cowboys cut him)
TE (2)- Fasano, Martin
OL (9)- Long, Carey, Grove, Incognito, Jerry, Berger, Murtha, Procter, Gardner

DE (5)- Odrick, Langford, McDaniel, Douglas, Grant
NT (2)- Starks, Soliai
LB (9)- Wake, Dansby, Crowder, Misi, Dobbins, Alama-Francis, Walden, Anderson, Johnson
CB (6)- Davis, Smith, Sapp, W Allen, J Allen, Carroll
S (4)- Bell, Clemons, Jones, Culver

K (1)- Carpenter
P (1)- Fields
LS (1)- Denney

Looks good, but I'm thinking Amaya in place of Walden. Amaya is a true FS. Bell, Jones, and Culver are SS's. We can't go into the season with only ONE guy at FS.

I also wonder if Nalbone will be kept instead of Murtha.

We will carry a 3 tight end. Probably isn't on our roster yet though.

I like the rest

So, here's mine:

QB (3)- Henne, Thigpen, Pennington
RB (4)- Brown, Williams, Cobbs, Hilliard
FB (1)- Polite
WR (5)- Marshall, Hartline, Bess, Moore, Wallace
TE (2)- Fasano, Martin, Nalbone
OL (9)- Long, Carey, Grove, Incognito, Jerry, Berger, Proctor, Murtha, Gardner

DE (5)- Odrick, Langford, McDaniel, Grant
NT (2)- Starks, Soliai
LB (9)- Wake, Dansby, Crowder, Misi, Dobbins, Alama-Francis, Anderson, Johnson
CB (6)- Davis, Smith, Sapp, W Allen, J Allen, Carroll
S (4)- Bell, Clemons, Jones, Culver, Amaya

K (1)- Carpenter
P (1)- Fields
LS (1)- Denney

at least 2 or 3 guys aren't on our roster yet, I predict

Pat Crayton just got traded to SD for a 7th roudner, btw

Nalbone is still eligible for the practice squad, so I think that's where they stash him. Will Allen's status almost forces us to keep 6 corners to start the year, and that's the only reason I didn't put a 3rd TE on the roster.

Garner's injury messes up the o-line. Last year, we kept 8 to start the season. But, without Garner's versatility, that makes it much more difficult to do this year. Gardner has played really poorly, and he's a guy that I think could be replaced by someone that another team cuts.

Erik Walden is a core special teams guy. He plays on all 4 units, and is a very good wedge buster. That's why I think he makes it.

Last season, we opened the year with 9 LB on the roster, and for most of the year, we kept 10. That's a reason why I don't think we'll go with just 8.

Well, cross Gardner off my list, and add Pat McQuistian, who we just acquired via trade from the Cowboys.

Just ended a conference call with Bill, Jeff and Tony and we decided on this:

QB - Henne, Penny, Thig, Pat White
RB - Brown, StickyIckyRicky, Cobbs, Hilliard, Polite
TE - Fasano, Martin, Nalbone
WR - Marshall, Hartline, Bess, Turner, Moore
C - Grove, Berger
G - Incognito, Jerry, Thomas
T - Long, Carey, McQuistian, Gardner

DL - Langford, Odrick, Starks, Soliai, Grant, McDaniel, Dotson
LB - Dansby, Crowder, Wake, Misi, Francis, Anderson, Dobbins, Johnson
CB - Davis, Smith, Sapp, Jason Allen, Carroll, Ness
S - Bell, Clemons, Jones, Culver

and 3 specialist make 53. Will Allen is going to be waived/IR.

oops, I meant Murtha, not Gardner.
