I wouldn't be shocked to see them carry 4 TEs. They don't really have a "blocking TE".

They often carry 10 OL and 6 WR.

That is why there are 3 spots open.

My biggest worry is LB, we have no depth at MLB and especially WLB.

Weird how you had 3 open spots and I suggested how 3 additional spots could be filled...

At 6-5 260 he is a DE in a 4-3.

I seems logical based on his size; however, he played ILB last year and was much better in coverage than expected.

They keep projecting him at LB on all the various shows/podcasts. lunch Break, TalkinCowboys, Draft show all sayin that so far he's being looked at as a backup to Lee at MLB .

You can that for what it's worth. But that's the chatter.

Btw, other than that, a pretty solid projection.

We almost certainly get one of these quarterbacks that went undrafted. So that is 1.

We may keep Dunbar and Tanner. That is two.

We may keep Coale and Beasley. That is three.

My guess is Vickers is gone. That is two.

I think we'll keep 10 offensive linemen. That is three.

Crawford will be in play at tackle, but he could certainly have position flex. I think Ben Bass will also be in the mix. We're going to have a significant rotation there in the middle I think.

Sims will back up Carter if he doesn't get the starting job at the SAM.

Carter will back up Lee at the MIKE.

McSurdy is gone, just like Dan Connor.

I think that is the roster. I think Free is gone, and we sign Winston. Or Free takes a pay cut, we sign Winston, and Parnell is gone or a different linemen is gone.

now coale looks to be a wasted pick

Coale was very good in college,he just had terrible luck starting out for us.

He got started off on the wrong foot, because of various injuries. Missed OTAs and parts of Training Camp. Then he tore his ACL.

The worst part is how late he tore it. I don't know what the time table for his return is, but I don't think the team is going to just give up on him. Nothing wrong with having legitimate weapons. Worst case scenario I would redshirt him again this year.

Well, the depth at MLB is ok because if Lee goes down, Carter slides in I would assume. The problem, if that happens, is that OLB gets real thin

We're in a 4-3 so generally you're only going to have about 6 or 7 linebackers on the roster.

1. Sean Lee
2. Bruce Carter
3. Ernie Sims
4. Justin Durant
5. DeVonte Holloman
6. Brandon Magee
