Hi everyone -
Every year – I take a look at the Patriots roster so that depth charts can be established and discussed following the draft since there is some down time between now and June 1 cuts. Here is my early look at the Patriots depth chart. I will say this – the competition is going to be pretty damn good once OTA’s and Training Camp commence.
New England Patriots 2013 Projected Roster (bold - projected starters at this time)
(2) QB – Brady, Mallett
(4) RB – Ridley, Vereen, Washington, Bolden/Blount
(5) WR – Amendola, Jones, Dobson, Edelman, Boyce
(4) TE – Gronkowski, Hernandez, Hoomanawanui, Ballard
(4) OG – Mankins, Connolly, Cannon, McDonald
(4) OT – Solder, Vollmer, Zusevics, Svitek
(1) C – Wendell
Offense – 24 Players
(5) DE – Jones, Ninkovich, Francis, Cunningham, Bequette
(5) DT – Wilfork, Kelly, Armstead, Love, Deadrick
(3) OLB – Mayo, Hightower, Collins
(2) ILB – Spikes, Rivera
(5) CB – Talib, Dennard, Arrington, Ryan, Dowling
(2) FS – McCourty, Gregory
(3) SS – A. Wilson, T. Wilson, Harmon
Defense – 25 players
(4) Special Teams: Gostkowski, Mesko, Aiken, Slater
(8) Practice Squad Candidates – Ebner, Cole, Beauharnais, Robertson, Vega, Buchanan, A. Holmes, Kafka
Likely Cut Candidates:
Jenkins and Ebert
Bolden/Blount (one of two)
Fiametta (because of Hernandez's flexibility as an H-Back)
Hoomanawanui/Ballard/Fells (one of three)
Dowling (if he cannot shake the injury bug and if he values Cole more because of his ST contributions)
Gregory
Rivera (because of the inside flexibility of Hightower and Mayo)
Svitek/Zusevics/McDonald (maybe one of three if they are comfortable with Cannon moving inside and if Zusevics can prove his worth as the 3rd OT)
