Akunne, King, Gathers/Traylor, Okoye, Coe, Jones, Olatoye/McKinnon, McAdoo ...maybe Showers?

Keep an eye out for waiver wire help at de, lb, s..

I think Gathers will stick there over Traylor. Team will continue to build upon his skillsets to see if he can be a contributor.

Gathers
Coe
Traylor
Okoye

Maybe 6 of these:
McKinnon
Olatoya
Frey
Andy Jones
Deon King
Brandel
Witzmann

Probably a 2nd WR.

Traylor is the only cut that I see getting claimed - not that I'd be shocked if he made it through waivers. Gathers likely has an agreement already to join the PS

Gathers will stick. Any team who likes him knows he's gotta develop. They'd be happy to let him do that on our PS and then poach him down the line

You aren't getting decent players from other teams for the PS. Nearly all would rather stay put

DL Shaneil Jenkins
WR Rodney Smith
WR Vince Mayle
CB Deji Olatoye
C Jake Brendel (Cowboys have already stated they want him here)
DL Lawrence Okoye (outplayed Rodney Coe)
TE Rico Gathers
Plus 3 new guys

Maybe Showers, but he should be available if we need him without adding him to PS.

Pick-ups to be determined.

Did we ever figure out what was Jenkins and McKinnon's injuries?

Jenkins got an injury settlement. Can't return to 53 for 6 weeks + settlement duration. Rule probably same for practice squad but not certain.

Was afraid of this. Jenkins outplayed everyone on the DL when given an opportunity (especially without a lot of prep time with system) and this was a poor way to reward his effort. Especially when guys who have not been able to play, never mind perform to his level, are still on the roster.

Jenkins may never amount to anything, but rewarding performers is a much better policy than protecting draft/FA "assets" who have underperformed/unable to perform, no matter what the industry.
