My first attempt at a 53 man roster after day 1 of training camp. It will probably be different next time I make another one. Thank you pats picker for making it so easy to make one.
QB (2) Brady, Garoppolo
RB (5) Ridley, Vereen, White, Finch, Develin
WR (6) Edelman, Amendola, Dobson, Boyce, Thompkins, Slater
TE (3) Gronkowski, Hoomanawanui, Jones
C (2) Stork, Cave
G (4) Mankins, Connolly, Kline, Halapio
T (4) Solder, Vollmer, Cannon, Fleming
DE (4) Jones, Ninkovich, Moore, Smith
DT (4) Wilfork, Kelly, Easley, Jones
ILB(2) Mayo, Beauharnais
OLB(4) Hightower, Collins, Anderson, Gordon
CB (5) Revis, Browner, Dennard, Arrington, Swanson
SS (3) Harmon, Ryan, Ebner
FS (2) McCourty, Thomas
ST (3) Gostkowski, Allen, Aiken
If they were inclined to go with 2QBs, I think they would have traded Mallett. By keeping him, I think they're signaling that they're not comfortable with a rookie backup QB and are going to carry three this year. Although who knows, it's possibly that Garoppolo will be so good in camp that Belichick will feel that Mallett doesn't warrant a roster spot.
At the moment, this is my list:
QB (3) Brady, Mallett, Garoppolo
RB (4) Ridley, Vereen, White, Houston
WR (6) Edelman, Amendola, Dobson, Thompkins, Boyce, LaFell
TE (3) Gronkowski, Hoomanawanui, Jones
C (2) Wendell, Stork
G (3) Mankins, Kline, Halapio
T (4) Solder, Vollmer, Cannon, Fleming
DE (4) Jones, Ninkovich, Buchanan, Smith
DT (5) Wilfork, Kelly, Easley, Jones, Siliga
ILB(3) Mayo, Hightower, Beauharnais
OLB(3) Collins, Anderson, Davis
CB (5) Revis, Browner, Dennard, Ryan, Arrington
SS (2) Harmon, Wilson
FS (2) McCourty, Thomas
ST (4) Gostkowski, Allen, Aiken, Slater
Total players: 53
