I expect more action, but nothing major, in the next week. A possibility that would be major would be the signing of a top OL, understanding that bot Thuney and Karras are in their contract year, and Andrews is an unknown for 2020 (we've already offered a first).
1) We will add a player tomorrow for this weekend's game, unless we wait until SAT and activate a DL from the Practice Squad.
[EDIT:Tomlinson is still on the 53, so there is no open roster spot]
2) The only real NEED is at FB, if we can find one.
3) Harry will be added next week, after the trade deadline.
4) Bill is hard at work, looking for upgrades everywhere, as usual.
SOME THOUGHTS
A) I think that we're done at WR. We have five, and Meyers or Harry is our #5. Only 3 get much action. We should do fine with our top 3: Edelman, Dorsett and Sanu, especially when considering that we have Watson and White as receiving targets.
B) We could have a pickup at TE, especially if neither backup is really healthy. However, there doesn't seem to be much out there.
C) Special teams is always a possibility, even if it is Richards for a one-week stint until Harry is activated.
D) Bennett could be traded if we can find a buyer. If this happens, I would expect us to sign or activate a DL, hopefully a DT.
E) Obviously, we can use an upgrade on the OL. We have the following on the roster: Cunningham, Ferentz, Newhouse and Eluemunor. When Wynn is added that will make 9, a relatively "normal" number. I should note that both Thuney and Karras don't have 2020 contracts, so we could use someone who can contribute this year, and into the future.
