-- The defense is built on the base 3-4/mulitple front approach. Between 15 DL and LBs they can run 4-3 heavy and goal line to a 1-5 Nickel with little difficulty, switching from one to two-gap lines on the fly.
-- The offense is built on a 3 WR basis.

PSquad: Hoyer, Ingram, Orhnberger, Bussey, Richard, Love, Nunn, ________**
PUP/NFI: LeVoir, Tate
*QB Walter asked to float on the shadow roster for a mid-season return.
**PSquad: If Williams has eligibility left, I can see him there. Adams too.
-- I can also see waiving Love and bringing him back later after test flying others and rearranging the PSquad a time or two.
-- I see Hoyer, O & B, Richard, and Nunn as the core of the PSquad.
-- Ortiz getting yet another look from NE may warrant some PSquad consideration.
-- Green-Ellis is kept due to the injury history of the core RBs and his Special Teams contribution.
-- Against Washington, Vollmer showed he can handle #3 swing tackle duty until LeVoir is back healthy. This makes Britt and O'Callaghan expendable.
-- If Ninkovich has PSquad eligibility I can see him signed there, if not, he may be asked to shadow roster.
