How do you get to 53 next year?

[Tarlam!]

Sorry Harv', but the critical drops by Jones don't leave me much room to salivate. I like the man from what I see in the press, but the player just broke my heart too often.

[Tarlam!]

Fully agree with the QBs and TEs, Nutz, I'll be surprised if Johnson makes it - I think they keep another inside OL. I'll be surprised if Jones signs for less money - I replace him with Swain.

On "D", Harrell will get the nod and Guy is PS.

Agree with the rest.

[LP]

I see everyone is keeping the punter. Ain't it great how times have changed!

Okay here is mine. I will predit that we will wind up going back to the old rules and getting the players we tendered back.

(Offense:25)
QB(2): Rodgers, Flynn
RB(3): Grant, Starks, Green
FB(1): Kuhn
TE(2): Finley, Quarless
H-Back(2): Williams, Taylor
OT(5): Clifton, Bulaga, Sherrod, Lang, Newhouse
OG(3): Sitton, Colledge, Schlauderaf
OC(2): Wells, McDonald
WR(5): Jennings, Jones, Nelson, Driver, Cobb

Defense(25)
DL(6): Pickett, Raji, Neal, Wilson, Guy, Green
ILB(4): Hawk, Bishop, Chillar, Smith
OLB(5): Matthews, Zombo, Jones, Walden, Ellmore
CB(6): Woodson, Williams, Shields, House, Lee, Underwood
S(4): Collins, Burnett, Peprah, Levine

Specialists(3): Crosby, Masthay, Goode.


In case of an injury, Lang would be the next man up at guard. Bjac simply doesn't make the team.

Crabtree gone?

I hope not. I like what another poster said about him - he blocks like his hair is on fire, and you're trying to rape his grand-ma!

Somebody else said that? Wow, he must be a good blocker.

This is better than the roster we had last year. Superbowl!

When I look at our players, I keep thinking the same thing. This lineup is stronger than the one that won the Super Bowl! Our FA losses will be minimal, and more than offset by the guys we get back, most notably Grant, Finley and an OLB (Jones or Zombo). Add a year of seasoning to Shields and Bishop...wow.

The only place I can see trouble coming is LT. He was amazingly healthy, but there may not be enough bubblegum and bundle twine to hold him together another year. Let's hope someone steps up at that position.

Agree about the LT position, but between Lang and Sherrod I think there is often insurance there. I am more concerned about the dline. That is the only positional group on the team I could see being weaker than last year. If Jolly wasn't such a complete ahole he would have added great depth. We need Wilson to take a big step up this year and need everyone else to stay healthy.

So you think we re-sign Colledge? I hope we don't throw a lot of money at him if we do. It would be perfect if this year is uncapped IMO. You buy another year out of Colledge, Jones, and maybe even Jackson at a very reasonable price. Gives us another year to replace Colledge, and gives us crazy depth and talent at Wr.

College has one huge asset...availability. Unfortunately I think someone else pays him more for that asset than we will.

[Tarlam!]

I think Woodson will play that rover position and they'll be in nickel an aweful lot. It wouldn't surprise me if he's officially listed as a safety.
