I found this on nepatriotsdraft.com
What would you change on this projected 53 man roster?
I would definitely think Ebner and Cole are in danger. For some reason, I think Zoltan might not make it......I know ...don't mess with the Zoltan.
OFFENSE:
QB: Tom Brady, Ryan Mallett
RB: Stevan Ridley, Shane Vereen, Brandon Bolden, Leon Washington, LeGarrette Blount
One of these RB's doesn't stick. My first guess is that Bolden and Blount are competing for the last spot but I also wouldn't be surprised to see Washington get the axe.
WR: Danny Amendola, Aaron Dobson, Julian Edelman, Donald Jones, Josh Boyce, Matthew Slater
TE: Rob Gronkowski, Aaron Hernandez, Jake Ballard, Michael Hoomanawanui
OT: Nate Solder, Sebastian Vollmer, Marcus Cannon
I think we keep another OT......I'll add Will Svitek but I have no idea who he is or where he came from.
OG: Logan Mankins, Dan Connolly, Markus Zusevics
OC: Ryan Wendell, Matt Stankiewitch
DEFENSE:
DT: Tommy Kelly, Armond Armstead, Vince Wilfork, Kyle Love
I'm adding Deaderick
DE: Chandler Jones, Rob Ninkovich, Jake Bequette, Michael Buchanan
Add Cunningham and Francis and send Buchanan to the practice squad. Not sure what we have in Bequette. I see Bequette, Ebner, and Cole battling for the last two spots...For now, I've got Bequette out.
OB: Jerod Mayo, Dont’a Hightower, Jamie Collins
IB: Brandon Spikes, Dane Fletcher, Steve Beauharnais
I'm sending Beauharnais to the practice squad
CB: Aqib Talib, Alfonzo Dennard, Kyle Arrington, Logan Ryan, Ras-I Dowling, Marquice Cole
Dowling and Cole are both on the fringe. Dowling will probably get injured on his conditioning test so that will take care of him early on. We could go with only four CB's b/c McCourty is actually the 5th. Everybody wants to peg him as a S now but the truth is he's both. He's whatever we need him to be. I'll keep Cole for sp. teams
FS: Devin McCourty, Tavon Wilson, Duron Harmon
SS: Adrian Wilson, Nate Ebner
I see Ebner on the fringe of making this team. It'll be him or Slater but probably not both. I also see Steve Gregory sticking. Don't know why everyone is down on him....I thought he played well last year.
SPECIAL TEAMS:
K: Stephen Gostkowski
P: Zoltan Mesko
LS: Danny Aiken
