Yes, the last few spots can from any position, and injuries will be key in making the final choices. But, still, what do we want? My choices are below. Compared to last year, we have added a 3rd quarterback and taken the position from the defense (no 5th safety).
While anything can happen at the end, it seems reasonable for me to have a set of numbers in my head. Otherwise, the tempatation is to keep an extra player or two when discussing specific units. Sure, we would like a 6th RB, a 7th WR, a 4th TE, a 10th OL, a 16th and a 17th front seven player, and a 10th DB. But then that's why we would like a 60 man roster.
For me, I would not want to go below these numbers. My last (least value) position is the 5th RB. So, I could see giving that position back to the defense (10th DB or 16th front seven player). That is the last decision to make.
======================
OFFENSE (26)
QB (3) We finally have 3 again.
RB (5) The backups need to be special teamers.
WR (6) This includes one special teamer and one returner.
TE (3)
OT (4)
OG/C (5)
DEFENSE (24)
DL/LB (15) Includes one special teams only player
CB (5)
S (4)
SPECIALISTS (3)
