Or think we do anyway.;)

The little FB nugget in today's PC got me thinking...yeah, dangerous, I know.:D

The minimum we will likely keep at each position.

QB: 3, this one is pretty set in stone.

RB: 3, Parcells spoke at length about his desired breakdown of play distribution today.

FB: 0

TE: 2, Campbell and Witten then ?, but 3 is probably more likely, not including Robinson.

WR: 4, is pushing it when special teams needs are included.

OL: 8, five starters and one back up for each position.

Offensive minimum: 20

DL: 6, probably light.

LB: 7, same as OL starters and one back up each.

CB: 5, can't go below 5 in todays game.

S: 3, Parcells has said every guy we have is a SS, so why'd we need two back ups.:D

Defensive minimum: 21

K: 1

P: 1

LS: 1

Specialists: 3

We have 9 spots to play with, IMO.

I say we keep at least one more player at OL, TE, WR, DL, LB, CB, and S. Bringing those totals to 9 OL, 3 TE, 5 WR, 7 DL, 8 LB, 6 CB, 4 S, respectively.

Two more spots, have fun.;)

I think Thompson makes the team at RB.

I think EITHER Bickerstaff or the A Train make the team. Not both.

I think you nailed.

No FB's but those 4 RB's.

RB (3)- Julius, Thompson, let Barber and A-Train fight it out.

Thompson in my book is #2 due to his size and skills. But A-Train has proven to get the tough yards in the NFL. BarberIII may be the odd man out.

You don't think we have Bickerstaff when it's all said and done?

I like Bickerstaff but I would think his blocking skills are suspect.

Henson would never clear waivers, to be put on the PS.

The entire AFC East, BAL, IND, the entire AFC West, PHI, TB, CAR, MIN, DET, CHI, AZ, SEA AND STL would all put a claim on him in a heart beat.

I concur. Bickerstaff will be no more than practice squad.

I don't believe Henson is eligible for the practice squad.

A team may establish a practice squad of no more than eight* players who do not have an accrued season of free agency credit or who were on the 45-player active list for less than nine regular season games during their only accrued season. A player cannot participate on the practice squad for more than two seasons

Henson was active for 8 games last year.

Walter, Jones, O'Neil, Danzler, and Barnes are not PS eligible, though.;)
