There are a LOT of unmentioned players who ought to be either last in or first out. The more relevant thing at this point are the camp battles and who comes out ahead - and it's pretty early to say about those. Also, there is of course, the IR factor.
RB: I'll go with Harris in, Neal and Crockett out. He seems to have more talent, and pass catching can be learned.
FB: I don't see us keeping both. I think they try to Practice Squad Ripkowski. If he gets claimed, well, it ain't that hard to find somebody else next year or whenever Kuhn is done. Or maybe Kuhn gets cut now.
WR: I think we keep 6. The top 5 are pretty clear. Abbrederis is the big question mark - nary a word about his condition since the concussion occurred. If he's healthy, I still see him as the 6th. If he is IRed, Pinkard would seem the better choice than White for the 6th spot.
TE: I can't see keeping more than 3, so the battle is between Backman and Perillo. Perillo is a backup long snapper, and he is more polished, but Backman has more upside, and Ted likes his draft picks. I think he is in and Perillo out.
D Line: This is complicated by the suspensions, which I think don't count toward the 53 while suspended (right?). Nothing was said in the article about Ringo - does that mean in? or out? Who knows. I don't think either Thornton or Gaston stays beyond the duration of the suspensions. Datone Jones played with the scrubs in the Pat game. Is his spot in jeopardy? I think we go light on D Linemen - maybe only 5 - in order to keep somebody like Banjo.
LB: What a mishmash. 15 or 16 of them, and we keep 9 or 10 or even 11? I would LIKE to see Hubbard and Vaughters among the last in; I would like to see overripe fruit like Neal and Perry gone. It probably won't happen that way, but again, who knows?
DB: There were several pretty decent DBs in that game who don't have much chance to stick. I think we keep 11 including Gunter, Goodson, and Banjo. I'd like to see Richardson gone, but that probably won't happen.
