Official 53 man roster

[Jarntt]

I agree Mr Gehlken, I agree

 

[Jarntt]

I don't know about everyone else, but it really feels like the season is close now to me

 

[DogFace]

Does anyone know Juanyeh Thomas’s actual height? Different sources have him different heights. Or did he hit a late growth spurt?

Either 6-1 or 6-3

I think Dowdle may be in that role, holding the spot for Ronald Jones

I'm not a big Rico fan, but even so IMHO that would be stupid.
I think RJ is basically trash who should have been, and probably would have been released already if not for the suspension that lets him ride for free, for now. That guy has had a game or two in his career where he flashed, but he really has never much of anything substantial in the league, he is always hurt and he's a knucklehead to boot. He was a waste of FA capitol and we all know how Jerry hates to "be wrong" when he hands out $.

 

[J-man]

I think that Luepke will be a major part of the team. Outstanding skill set, receiver, blocker, and runner.

I think that's a bit of a reach to say he's outstanding at any of those things. but I hope you're right and I'm wrong.

Go watch his receiving highlights from college and last week.

So now that Waletzko is on IR for at least 4 weeks and we chose not to add anyone off waivers, we only have 8 offensive lineman on the roster.
I cannot believe this is how they're going into the season. I have to believe they are working on a trade for someone. Right?
The starting unit is very solid IMO:
RT Steele
RG Martin
C Biadasz
LG Smith
LT Smith

But the current back ups are Bass OG, Richards OL and Odoga OL who I believe is still hurt isn't he?
With no back up C at all who steps into that role if needed? If we get an injury at G, who comes in first Bass or Richards?
They can't seriously be counting on any the 4 PS guys, can they?

I have seen them. IMO, he has good hands but looks slow and out of control most of the time.

Running back​

• Tony Pollard
• Rico Dowdle
• Deuce Vaughn
• Hunter Luepke (FB)

awesome!

 

[reddyuta]

they should have kept Farniok,an injury will test our OL significantly.

 

[Calvin2Tony2Emmitt2Julius]

Both are fairly small guys.

They could squeeze into one roster spot. Easy.

And Both could squash your head like a pimple, just sayin

And Both could squash your head like a pimple, just sayin

That reads sorta malicious. Why?

 

[Bobhaze]

There are 16 players on this year’s first list of 53 that were not on the first 53 last year. Churning that bottom of the roster.

• Juanyeh Thomas.. Made The Cut..Welcome Young Fella

S Juanyeh Thomas lost his childhood home to a fire his father set. He, his mom and siblings slept in a car at an interstate rest stop. Today’s 53-man roster is a step toward long-awaited stability. “I have a chance to break a generational curse.”

Wow, I think it was Eatman talking about some documentaries coming up that told the backstories of about 10 players. I bet Thomas was one of them. I was right. He didn't just eventually get a roster spot, he took one off the bat. I really liked him coming in from last year. I'm not necessarily an instant gratification guy, but I could see he had something to him. We were just really deep back then, and nobody knew about him. But I'm glad to see him stick around. I have a good feeling about him.

Just stating the obvious. So , maybe a little self awareness on the subject is in order. No malicious intent, just actual, factual
