OFFENSE
1) Basically, you have Keene as our fullback. I'd rather have a fullback.
2) You have Bolden at Player 53, bringing him back after someone goes on IR. I guess I'm OK with that.
3) Personally, I think that Taylor is a waste of a roster spot.
4) We need a 9th OL. We will have 8 active OL's. There should be one player as injury backup, in a ddition to Practice Squad folks.

BOTTOM LINE
I would cut Taylor and Keene in favor of a FB and a 9th OL.
===========
DEFENSE
I agree with all your choices. There will be injuries; for now, this list is a fine 24. Of course, calling Adams a NT will just pi$$ off the captain. MO, He just just add more to the defensive front six than the alternatives (Cowart and Bentley).

COULD BE A SIGNING (BOTTOM 4 POSITIONS)
1) 5th WR
2) 9th OL
3) 5th CB
4) 6th CB

QB - Stidham stays on PUP, no need to go to IR.

RB - Jake Johnson is a favorite of Bill's, therefore he stays...Haven't heard anything regarding JJ Kid Dynomite so far...He might be the odd man out, again...Tyler Gaffney's a ****ing joke, NFW is he signed to the PS.

WR - At least Harry is boosting his trade value...Wilkerson needs to stop dropping passes or he's gone...Nixon to the PS...Isaiah Zuber sucks...And don't dismiss Marvin Hall so quickly; with Devin Smith gone, he might be the fastest WR in the building and could challenge for the Backup Outside spot behind Agholor & Bourne/Meyers.

TE - With Keene gone, Troy Fumagalli now has a legit chance to become TE #4, though he might still be in direct competition with Jake Johnson for just one spot.

OL - "I just don’t think Sherman is big enough for Tackle. I go with a guy that has NFL experience in Redmond."
Redmond has No NFL experience at OT; and if he has any, it's practically a lead-pipe lock that it's Bad experience...Dude ****ing sucks...Jerald Hawkins makes far more sense here than Redmond...No fan of Justin Herron either...Bill & the New Minions need to very, Very carefully scour the waiver wire on Cut-Down Day for OLmen, OTs in particular.

DT - Monty Capuletti Adams is a Bust, and besides that is in NO way, shape or form a NT...Carl the Concussion Davis is one, however, so let's see if he survives TC...And why in the world would you even for one moment consider re-signing The Comedian & Nicky Thurman to the PS? Both of them ****ing suck.

Agree with the DEs & LBs...Dam shame about the Raekwon McMillan injury; now I have to hope that both Langi & Terez Hall show enough to kick JaWrong Yugo & Brandon the King to the curb, though there will be multiple better options on Cut-Down Day than ANY of these four, if there aren't already (which there are).

Also agree with the CBs & Safeties, though Mike Jackson - especially if he can distinguish himself on STs - might be starting to perform well enough to make Bill decide on only one of Cody Davis & Justin Bethel.

For Bill, the question is whether Jackson is good enough to be better than Davis or Bethel on St's.

I'd rather have a DB on the 53 who won't be quite as good on STs as Bethel & Davis but would be a far superior defender to either of them, especially when our poor CB depth is considered...unless of course we would have to pay Detroit a draft pick to keep him.
