I have been reading all the hypothetical rosters but none seem to go with the present game suspensions or injuries. I would like to see a realistic projection as to starter and first backup. Anyone with a clue?
Hardy suspended 4 games - Russell, Gardner and Jack Crawford could all make the 53 with 1 getting bumped when Hardy returns.
RoMc - Suspended 4 games. A bubble LB like Wilber could be on the roster 4 games and then get bumped when RoMc returns.
It's possible a player at another position other than the suspended player's position could get the 4 games. Maybe a 4th RB, 6th WR, 4th TE, etc..
Injuries:
Green could end up on the PUP.
All other players currently project to be ready for game 1, IIRC.
