I think there will be some positions that we will want to go long on and that’s going to make for some really tough decisions.

I could envision a scenario where if Blue/Mafah don’t distinguish themselves that the Cowboys might keep Javonte KD possibly Davis and cutting everyone else.

Out of Blue/Mafah/Leupke would any of those guys get claimed? If not they could add any/all of those guys who clear waivers on the PS and elevate them as needed.

It doesn’t have to be Davis that they keep, but that’s a position we might go short.

If you are on the bubble you would be playing in preseason. Luepke had zero snaps.
 
Here’s 2025

Initial 53 man
  • Javonte Williams
  • Jaydon Blue
  • Miles Sanders
  • Hunter Luepke
IR
  • Phil Mafah


Luepke isn’t going anywhere.

There’s a $3.5m dead cap hit if we cut or trade him.

Izzy now tied with Mafah on the depth chart for RB3.

I got a feeling the are gonna cut Blue...or put him on IR with that shoulder injury. Was never impressed with Mapha to begin with...think he's gone too. They may roll with only 2 RBs that first week....think that 3RD RB is gonna come via trade or waivers. Names I'd keep an eye on...Benson in Arizona...Kendre Miller New Orleans.But I think Davis makes the cut...he's earned it.

Don’t see that happening.

He’s RB2 on their “unofficial” depth chart.
