Also thinking Waters (or some other vet OL).
I will literally eat my hat if Hilliard makes it through the week.
Yes, he was totally useless. I recall him standing over Ridley after totally missing a block.
It makes no sense to carry 3 defensive linemen on your 53 who aren't going to be active on game day. At least one of those guys need to go. Who will replace them? I don't know, but I don't think its going to be a WR. Gaffney and Branch are guys for down the road in case of injuries.
Personally I think our DLstarters played too many snaps as it was on Sunday, I think we need to get one of the DLmen activated if they are good enough, or replace them if they are not. And Hilliard seems really redundant with 3 TEs on the roster who can all line up as a FB
Interesting. If that turned out to be the case, who do you think would be the ones to go?MY HOPE
That we add a WR, RB/FB and an OT.

Forston, Hilliard and Francis.

I don't think we need a FB; Fells and Hoomanawanui can handle the FB blocking role.
I would then keep Francis, of the three you mentioned, and hope to get Fortson to the PS.
Coaches hate to put young defensive linemen on waivers. They get scooped up very quickly and won't make it to the practice squad. Hilliard could be replaced with the fb. Not sure we need 4 te's and a fb. A wr could replace one of the te's.
I can see two of th DL being replaced. But, only when we can IR them. One for an olb like Tarpinian. And, the other for that 9th OL. Hopefully, Brian Waters. But, that ship has sailed I believe.
Neither do anyone elses.I'm fairly sure that Waters' scenario has nothing to do with the season salary rule.
