If we want to carry 10 or even 11 DB’s it’s tough to fit another strong safety in unless there is an injury in training camp.

CB: 1.Diggs, 2.Brown, 3. Lewis 4. Robinson 5. Worley 6. Canady 7. Goodwin

CB/S: 8. Awuzie

S: 9.Woods 10. Clinton-Dix 11. Thompson 12. Wilson

I feel like one of Goodwin or Canady could be cut but the rest are required players. So if we brought in a Burnett or T.Jefferson then we’d need an injury IMO.

If Brown is one of our starting outside corners then we are in trouble.

I agree to an extent but it's a possibility. Certainly if we are matched up against speed and Diggs/Robinson aren't ready.

If Chido moves to Safety, Thompson could be cut after TC due to his low cap hit etc.

If they sign a veteran Safety then Canady and/or Goodwin could be purged.

CB: 1. Lewis
2. Worley/Diggs
3. Brown
4. Diggs/Worley
5. Robinson

DB: Chido

DS 1. HaHa
2. Jefferson, Geathers, Jones, Burnett
3. Woods
4. Wilson

ST: Goodwin/Canaday

Cowboys can fit 10 pretty well if Robinson can be a punt team gunner...if not they can keep 11 with Goodwin.

They may look at DE if either Gregory or Smith - or both - have their reinstatement requests denied. Those rulings should be coming in the next 2-3 weeks.

Is that the time frame? That was exactly my reaction, I want a DE if either one isn't reinstated.

Personally,I could tolerate some more BENNETT, for awhile longer,I mean from what gameplay I did notice of him, he seemed to be motoring full bore,,, what's the loggerhead with him/ us?

5. Robinson

I think Goodwin and Thompson are the cuts if everyone stays healthy but the interesting thing about that CB list is there are no elite players there but any of those five could start. I think its Diggs and Worley with Robinson replacing Worley at some point in the season, but its a lot of options to chose from.

Pass on every one of those offensive players

Defense list has strong possibilities though

I'd gladly take Peters as a veteran backup tackle. Not sure he's interested in that role, though.

Just read something about him probably returning to the Eagles to start one more year while Andre Dillard continues to be developed.

I think Goodwin and Thompson are possible cuts from that list, but that makes 10 we'll keep. Of course, a healthy Jefferson would make it worthwhile to cut (or trade) one of the players on the back end of that list. We'd have to see if he's truly healthy and back to playing at a high level first.

I agree. Maybe a couple guys step up in camp to show a clear separation.
