early predictions on 53 man roster

[jamf]

GJ on the list but I disagree with a couple of choices.

Thrash or jacobs: I cant see them keeping 6 WR's even if one is a special teams star. I think jacobs finally gets the boot. Thrash has too many skills to be let go.

H-Back/TE: Who knows what Saunders is going to do. Cooley is too valuable an H-back to not use him but I am concerned about him being a TE. Those positions are not interchangeable. Cooley might not be able to get into his routes with a linebacker right over him. I think we will use Sellers and Rock as fullbacks and Fauria and cooley and one other guy as TE.

Linebackers: I think G.Williams like zak Keasey(the white rasta Ivey league guy). He might bump McCune or even Holdman off the list.

Safety: I think we will have more than 4 safeties. Im thinking a possible 6 but more likely 5 since Williams likes to use His safeties to cover/blitz from the slot.

RB: I think nemo and white are gone. Just not enough spots for those guys since we will carry FB's and H-backs.

I don't think Nemo will be gone, he seemed to be very sure that he was being moved to FB, and seemed like him and the coaches were working on a lot of things. As for LB, Williams usually goes with his Vets. On the TE comment, under Gibbs HB and TE are very simalar and Cooley was more of a TE last year, I think he'll do fine. Agree with Jacobs being released.

Some of these FAs are a mystery! Who is Junta Woodard, Atavious Cash, Sean Guthrie, Steven Harris, Ron Johnson, Jim Jones, Tyler Jones, Nick McNeil, Calen Powell, Karon Riley, Jayshon Sykes, LaShaun Ward, and Aric Williams?

I never heard of any of them!

Well, Ron Johnson was a character on A Diff'rent World (he was Dwayne Wayne's best friend), Jim Jones made them all drink the Kool-Aid in Guyana, and Calen Powell used to be Secretary of State

jashon sykes played 8 games and had 50 tackles for the broncos two years ago. jim jones we got off waivers from the steelers, tyler jones kicked in camp for the bears last year... aric williams and cash both have had time in NFL Europe, etc etc.

some have NFL experience, most have NFLe or training camp experience from other clubs. I think robert johnson also spent time with the bears.

Jashon sykes is the best (as far as production) on that list, and a good pickup for LB depth.
