I really fail to understand the thinking.. people say Ted doesn't take risks... I say BS, in a lot of ways he takes to many on is roster depth.

And that sir is why you're not a general manager in the NFL. Gotta think like someone building a team and remember, you only get 53 toys! :)

Completely understand the ramifications of the 53 limit, the Practice squad and the 80 man limit coming into the training camp.
I can think of three or four pieces of "dead" weight off the top that could have been used more effectively.
If Breno isn't worthy to be active in the dire shape we were in at tackle, there is no way he should be on the 53.
Jeremy Thompson comes to mind, doesn't fit either role on base defense, we have Brad Jones there as a developmental prospect, Havner can also play in a pinch.. we have enough cap money tied up in Brady to keep him around.
So this 53 man excuse is something of myth in this case where you have key spots uncovered with suitable backups....
