4 Corners is about right,Maybe even 5 - But 3 looks to be hoping for an injury free area there and we all know that NEVER happens in NE

1) NEED 9 DB's
Add Wilhite and Sanders

2) NEED 9 OL's not 10
I don't expect Connolly to be even close to the roster. Ross could be a surprise instead of Welbourn as you say.

3) DeVree to the Practice Squad or the shadow roster.

4) Alexander instead of Guyton

BOTTOM LINE - DISAGREE ON 3 (49 agree, 1 tossup Ross or Welbourne)
Out: Connolly, DeVree, Guyton
IN: Wilhite, L. Sanders, Alexander

Youve got 27 on offense and 22 on defense (plus slater who i guess could be either)
The imbalance is usually on D, because those guys are more effective on s/ts (Lb,S,cb)
I think you need to remove 3 offensive guys (def too many ol) and add D. 3 corners is not enough.
I could see 25 O 24 D because of health issues at the OL, but thats the max on offense.
I think the 3rd TE is either a backup OL and/or Vrabel. I dont see room on the roster for a 3rd TE only.
