...There are still some obvious weaker spots - RB, OLB, DE, maybe WR

Interesting thought. It's obviously projecting out awhile, but I would think Wheatley would be on the 53. Don't know that we'd give up on a 2nd round pick in just two years.

Who would you give up? Weren't the McCourty (and Butler) selections AND the re-signing of Bodden an indictment of Wheatley?

If he couldn't get on the field last year when Bodden was out, then I don't see how he does with McCourty in the mix.

Those cuts work for me, I was wondering how this would look with so many draftees.

Hopefully Crable can win that spot with Murrell and I would definitely keep Wilhite over Springs. I hope Arrington makes it but I would have him with Wheatley in competition for that spot. Also, I would pencil Brace in but no more, I could see Warren and Lewis beating him out; he needs to come ready to compete for his roster spot, the scholarship year is over.

I dont see us keeping 5 running backs this year. I say we keep 4 then use one slot for a receiver or special teams.

That not a bad list but think we try and move Sanders in some way rather then cut one of the safeties.

We know BB likes STers that can do good things and he'll find a way to keep them as long as he can so people like Slater Lockett and Arrington will find a way on to this team

Sanders is the only leader this secondary has. He reportedly has taken Meriweather and the other younger players under his wing. They speak very highly of him.

Good. We're back to having to make some tough cuts to get down to 53.

I expect quite a few good vets ( on other teams ) to be cut in salary dumps, there might be some good talent available still this off season.

Springs & AD are pretty much locks to be cut imo.

I really like this roster. But where do you project Bryan Anderson to be? I think he has a legit crack at the roster. Also I really would be surprised if Springs came back.
