Who gets the final spot?

[Bleu Star]

Amendola sticks.

In looking at possibilities for the 53-man roster, I've come up with 52 "sure-bets," mostly sticking with the players who were already on the team, plus the draft choices.

So the question is who gets the final spot? Here are my options:

53. Roy

I'd vote totally against 3 QBs.

Have been against it for a few years. If Bartel performs well enough to earn a spot then Brad Johnson had better be gone. Don't think there is such a wasted spot as that 3rd QB spot.

Unless the 3rd QB has the last name Romo?

With all this conjecture, you might want to consider the possibility that one or more of the "top 52" gets injured in training camp or preseason. A spot or two (hopefully no more) will open up for guys mentioned here.

 

[Seven]

It's a little difficult to call especially since most of the rooks have a shot at this point. I usually end up pullin' for the underdog and then am so far off I should ban myself from this forum. I'll wait til the dust settles and then say "I saw that right off........." "He had crappy "measureables."

situations different when you don't have a QB. When QC and The Crutch are your starters, you need all the possible replacements you can get. When you have a top 5 QB, you don't hold that spot for a 3rd QB.

The exceptions are Evan Oglesby being knocked off by the corner depth and Justin Rogers by the sixth-round pick (or Darrell Robertson or Tearrius George, if you prefer).

So the question is who gets the final spot? Here are my options:

Do we finally keep three quarterbacks? (Richard Bartel)

Or a second fullback? (Julius Crosslin/Ronnie Cruz)

Or a fourth tailback? (Alonzo Coleman)

Perhaps a fourth tight end? (Rodney Hannah)

Do any of the receivers convince us to keep seven if they can't beat the incumbents? (Danny Amendola, Mark Bradford, Daniel Polk)

Maybe we go with a ninth linebacker. (Rogers, George, Robertson)

Or a seventh defensive lineman. (Marcus Dixon)

I don't think we go with more than 10 offensive linemen (same group as last year) and more than six corners isn't likely. I could see keeping a fifth safety, but I'm not sure we have one worth keeping, with Dowayne Davis being the only addition at the position.

Gimme your thoughts.

Well, most of this stuff will work itself out. Meanwhile the extra 3rd/4th TE, Rodney Hannah looks like a solid keeper in the big picture.
