Let's look at Reiss' roster. Personally, I would make ONE change
Ok, I'll do the same, making ONE change as well (depending how you count it). Cut Lua to PS if possible, add Caldwell. The final nail in the coffin here is that by going with 6 WR, you have a much better chance of getting something in a trade (for say, Caldwell or Washington) if they are on the 53. The trade deadline is usually mid to late October, so you go back to 5 WR for a few weeks until the PUPsters come free. If you try to trade a WR now, you get nothing because teams know they are likely to be cut anyway.
Also, if injury strikes... while your LBs are old, Lua simply cannot be asked to play a down given his current skills. Depth is only depth if the guy can contribute when called. At WR Washington can play should Moss or Stallworth be inactive due to the usual things that plague WRs every year.
This presumes you can sneak Lua onto the PS, or that he is worth even worrying about.
