Normally the rosters get shuffled around when cuts start happening during training camp, what players do you think are closest to being "on the roster", but expendable if someone more interesting gets cut? I'm thinking Chandler, Martin and perhaps Amini could be in trouble in such an event maybe?

I see us keeping 9 OL and that 9th spot is up in the air. Remmers could become our backup center/tackle and we cut either Folkerts or Amini and keep Wallace as an extra tackle. This relies on whether Wallace shows he's worth keeping or not. And if they think he is, it could come down to Folkerts vs Amini. In which case I hope they choose Folkerts since he also can play guard.

i am going to be honest...both tackle positions are concerning

RT you have an unproven PS journeyman in Remmers and .a 4th round rookie in DW who will more than likely see limited snaps during his first season.sure both of these guys possess the potential to become good players but that is neither here nor now at this point in time.

LT is Mr.blindside himself but in fact he's played on the right side throughout the majority of his NFL career because he simply wasn't very good at stopping speed rushers.now will he be able to  write a fairy tail ending to his story is a mighty big IF to say the least.yeah,and Johnathan Martin was cut from the 49errors who desperately need all the help they can get doesn't bode well in the confidence department.

so,you basically are looking at 4question marks and some of course being bigger than others.but if we keep Cam upright and healthy this upcoming season we need at least a couple of these question marks to become the ANSWER.

    • Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.
    • How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.
    • I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
