mattermind Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Love the 53! Want it to be true, but Thompson vanished and I don't think that's gonna happen.

blitzpackage Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 My prediction for final roster for the heck of it, certainly just my opinion. I'm sure I'll get some good feedback from you guys: Offense (25): QB(3) Robert Griffin III Kirk Cousins Colt McCoy RB(4) Alfred Morris Roy Helu Silas Redd Darrel Young WR(6) Pierre Garcon Desean Jackson Andre Roberts Ryan Grant Santana Moss Aldrick Robinson TE(3) Jordan Reed Logan Paulsen Niles Paul OT(4) Trent Williams Tyler Polumbus Morgan Moses Tom Compton OG(4) Shaun Lauvao Chris Chester Spencer Long Josh Lerebius C(1) Kory Lichtensteiger Defense (25): DE(5) Jason Hatcher Jarvis Jenkins Chris Baker Kedric Golston Clifton Geathers NT(2) Barry Cofield Robert Thomas OLB(4) Brian Orakpo Ryan Kerrigan Trent Murphy Everette Brown ILB(3) Perry Riley Keenan Robinson Adam Hayward Akeem Jordan CB(6) Deangelo Hall David Amerson Tracy Porter EJ Biggers Bashaud Breeland Richard Crawford S(4) Ryan Clark Brandon Meriweather Bacarri Rambo Akeem Davis Special Teams (3): Zach Hocker Robert Malone Nick Sundberg Notables: Stephen Bowen - PUP Leonard Hankerson - PUP Philip Thomas - IR Chris Neild - IR Evan Royster - Cut Brandon Meriweather - Will probably get a roster exemption for first two weeks, make way for a rental on a young player PS (10): Chris Thompson Lache Seastrunk Lee Doss Tevita Stevens Gabe Miller Will Compton Ted Bolser Trenton Robinson Chase Minnifield DaMon Cromartie-Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZRagone Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Hey I'd welcome him finally showing us something, but what he may do in the future doesn't chance what he hasn't done thus far in the past and present. Maybe he balls out in the regular season, that won't make me change my opinion that he's looked little more than pedestrian as a RB for the past two years of watching him.

ZRagone Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Baker and Golston have both played some nose for us in the past, and with us spending a lot of time in nickel it becomes less important Most recent new I heard on Thomas was that it's not too serious after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Job!!Baker can move inside and Jenkins and Golston can take snaps there as well. Of course I'm guessing we see a lot of 4 man fronts as well.Edit: Baker and Golston have both played some nose for us in the past, and with us spending a lot of time in nickel it becomes less important Most recent new I heard on Thomas was that it's not too serious after all Good to hear about Thomas.

Leonard Washington Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I'd take Incognito over Chester in a cocaine heartbeat personally...

Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Quite a few nagging question marks on the strength of the probable 53 to me. On offense: WR depth. Presuming Garcon, Jackson and Roberts are the top 3, the depth behind leaves a LOT to be desired. Grant showed little in college. (He's looked solid pre-season but it's a BIG jump to the real action.). Moss is at the tail end and was slipping badly in all facets the longer last year rolled. Aldrick still has it ALL to prove. 4 years in. Williams has great hands but is totally unproven and inexperienced. And Hank just can't stay healthy. OL. Here's where I see everything falling down. The centre on out the right hand side is as bad as last year for me currently with the undersized Lichtensteiger no upgrade on the equally weak Montgomery. Chester is regressing and even worse than last year if thats possible. And Polumbus is a continued major weak link at RT. Yes, he improved last year, But he was abysmal to start with so that's saying little. At tackle back-up you have one rookie in Moses who's still VERY raw and has a LONG way to go. Lauvao doesn't fill you with much confidence if he's called upon. I like the prospect of Long and I'd definately have LeRibius, Gettis and Hurt in there but I think I'll be lucky to get just one of them. I fear for Robert's health behind this continued mess. Defense. DL depth. Now Neild looks like he's done for the year, the defensive line depth just got thinner. Strong and improved in the starters, but outside of JJ nothing to write home about in reserve, If Highway 64/ The Turnstile Golston is a lock again then I give up. OLB depth. God forbid Ryan or 'Rak go down as you wouldn't want to throw Murphy to the wolves or worse have to rely on career journeymen back-ups Brown or Miller. More happier with the inside backers although there's still a question mark on how Riley will cope with stepping up to MIKE and how Keenan will look with virtually no pro experience to date. Secondary. Love the way the corner slots are taking shape. Both starters and quality young depth. But the safety positions could bring down the whole defense. Merriweather sadly gets a start by default (when he's not sitting out his next dumbass suspension); and Clark on the face of it is a decent years stop gap. But has he lost a step already? Opening day will answer that nagging question finally. And then you've probably Rambo and (hopefully he's not seriously injured) Thomas. One in effect a total rookie and the other still very raw. Safety continues to be scary as all heck. PK. Everything points to Hocker due to being drafted and having a stringer kick off leg. But why in the HELL would you ditch Cobra Kai? We finally find a kicker who doesn't have us hiding behind the sofa every time he takes the field and now many are happy to ditch him. I honestly don't get how this is even a debate, Reliable FG kicker > Strong kick-off leg. ANY day of the week. Wish I could see the unbridled optimism many have on the roster but as much as there's lots I really like going forward, there's still a LOT of roster building to do next offseason and beyond to get to where we want to be. The 2014 vintage overall leaves a lot to be concerned about. Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolblue13 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 GHH, Gettis is gone. Miller was a TE and Keenan is the MIKE. Also, I think you might be the only one that concerned with our WR4,5,6. We are deep there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I think you might be the only one that concerned with our WR4,5,6. We are deep there. Gettis has gone? Well Hell, thats another one. Miller was a converted TE wasn't he? And Keenen is the MIKE over the guy with the experience? That has me even more concerned. Deep in players at receiver depth. Subjective to how talented you believe that is. Hail.

Est.1974 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Previous seasons worth of watching them/ college eval? Hail. Well Im not convinced that's the best way to form an opinion. I'd like to factor in some of what happened post last seasons debacle via coaching changes, camp & Preseason evaluation, However, much of your concerns are valid, outside of WR for which I'd say we appear as stacked as you realistically can be at one position.
