Jabril Cox looks like a goner to me. They had him playing deep in the 4th quarter last week.

My 2 cents:
RB: Davis not a blue - meaning not definite
WR: Tolbert absolutely a blue. He is on the team
OL: a crap shoot after the obvious 5 and I still say we bring in another vet before week 1
DL: I think Gholston won't make the 53
DL: I think Bohanna ahead of Gallimore and I think Fehoko is a DE who moves inside on passing downs, not a DT
CB: Wright and Lewis may both be injured and stashed for the beginning of the year. Joseph will make the team because of STs. I know a lot high on Scott but he was horrible week 1. Hopefully will play better. Rooting for him
LB: I think Cox ahead of Harper
QB: We should keep 3 QBs because of the rule change, but can move one up form the PS if one of hte top 2 is a little banged up so maybe not

Scott has been better than Bland was last year at this point. He's had an excellent camp. He had some mistakes in the game but nothing to think he wouldn't make the team.

Disagree on being better than Bland at this point last year. Bland was getting a lot of talk in the offseason. Scott was not good against the run in College and worse last week. That's a big part of playing Corner in the NFL and especially when you have a guy like Diggs also on the field. I don't have a concern with guys needing time to get their feet under them or struggling in their first preseason game, but people on here are, IMO, way ahead themselves with Scott. If Lewis is healthy by week 1 I don't see Scott being active on game day if he makes the team. He has a good chance to make the 53 and I would keep him over Wright if he is as good on STs just because I don't think Wright is ever going to be an NFL starter or even top 3 CB but Scott could be. I'm just not sure how good he is on STs

Here are the 38 guys who I believe are making the team in Blue.
The 13 guys who I think will make the team in Green.
If I'm close that's 51 out of 53 spots accounted for.
And here are the 12 guys who I think are on the bubble, fighting for just a couple of spots, in Red.

QB
Dak, Rush, Grier
RB
Tony, DV, Davis, Rico, Luepke
TE
Jake, Schoon, Hendershot, Stephens, McKeon
WR
CD, Cooks, Gallup, Turpin, Tolbert, Brooks, Fehoko, Houston
OL
Zack, Tyron, Tyler, Biadasz, Steele, Edoga, Farniok, Richards, Waletsko, Ball. Bass

DE
DLaw, SamWill, Armstrong, Fowler, Gohlston
DT
Odiggy, Hank, Mazi, Fehoko, Galimore, Bohanna
LB
Micah, LVE, Clark, Overshown, Harper, Cox
CB
Diggs, Gilmore, Bland, Wright, Lewis, Joseph, Scott
S
Hooker, Kearse, Wilson, Mukuamu, Bell
ST
Aubrey, Anger, Sieg

What changes would you make?
Safety Bell is my only disagreement.
Good job !

Gallimore is on the bubble.

Cox should be in red.

Joseph makes the team.
- Fassel lost Noah Brown...
- Joseph played a higher percent of ST snaps than Goodwin in 2022.
- McCarthy's comments about Joseph at CB were very positive.

Waletzko is a near lock.

Davis and Rico even.

Thanks @speedkilz88

I predicted that Scott would be the surprise of training camp but I have not kept up with his progress.

Is Luepke a short yardage option. Doesn’t seem to be roster space for him unless you go with only 3 TE’ and go with an extra RB . Can also utilize Luepke as a blocker clearing brush for Vaughn or Pollard .

He doesnt know what he is talking about.
The only corners on this team better than Wright are diggs, gilly, bland and Lewis. You do know that, right? And if you want to say izzy then him too. Nobody else is close to Wright at the moment so he should make the team
