For me, it's hard to imagine that Tolbert deserves a spot on this team. He's not a great run-blocker (proven by the fact that we keep Brockel around as some sort of quasi-FB), he's nowhere near the "catching threat" he was once considered to be, and we have other, younger, backs who show they are more hungry than he is. I would give a spot to Wegher (consistently shown what he is capable of in the preseason) or Todman (a more consistent ST player) over Tolbert.

Also, releasing Tolbert saves us 2m against the cap immediately.

I don't usually share my opinion on roster spots because if there is one thing I know almost 100% of the time, fans and their expert drawn out opinions are completely wrong and it's always funny. So I will wait for the roster to be put into place by the people that actually know how to evaluate talent professionally and watch with popcorn in hand at all the overreactions taking place.

Same with Corey Brown, noticed he played very little which leads me to believe he is safe.

People actually thought there was a chance Brown would get cut?

Yea, he played like trash a couple of weeks ago but if you guys haven't noticed, all of our receivers (sans maybe Funchess) are trash, at least without Benjamin around to take #1 attention.  He was never not safe.

I tried to fill out a roster and got to 46 with the guys I'm comfortable thinking are making the team.  It will be interesting to see who gets chosen from the bubble.  We heard there were 9 spots available but I think the WR figured itself out with Byrd and Mike Brown on the outs.  Brockel will make it and people will RAGE lol. 

My bubble squad:

Swole Bones, Fozzy, Trusnik, Wegher, Glanton, Brockel, Marlowe, Lucas, Simonson, Wallace (OT), Chandler, Love, Teddy Williams, Heath, Byndom, Foucault, Blechen

On the 53:

QB: Newton || Anderson || Webb

RB: Stewart || Artis-Payne || Todman

FB: Tolbert

WR: Funchess || Cotchery || Ginn || Brown || Norwood || Bersin

TE: Olsen || Dickson

LT: Oher 

LG: Norwell || Amini

C: Kalil

RG: Turner || Scott

RT: Remmers || Williams

DE: Johnson || Ealy || Addison || Horton

DT: Star || Short || Edwards || Cole

OLB: Davis || Shaq || Klein

MLB: Kuechly || Mayo

CB: Bene || Tillman || Norman

S: Coleman || Harper || Boston || Jones

K: Gano   P: Nortman  LS: Jensen

Still hope he makes the roster. We need a legit starter at both S spots.

I realize this ship has sailed, but I was catching up on my reading, and I thought this comment needed a bit of expanding/  I agree, and here is why: Marlowe has a chance to  become a complete S, while Harper and Jones are rather one-dimensional.   Marlowe has a bunch of technique work to get down, but when he does, I see Marlowe, Boston, and Coleman as the future at S-and a pretty good group.

      I think he has closed the gap a little bit between him and a backup coming in and badly showing him up.  But not so much that someone could not come in and make the offense look like Andy did in Seattle week 3 2023. That poo was night and day to Bryce was putting out.  So, they are in a sense playing with fire by getting rid of Dalton and actually trying to bring in someone to push him.

      Some people have been beaten down so long they have no standards. Can't be reasoned with.

      Getting better, might be fairly charitable. We finished 1-3 with the pressure on. That is for sure not trending up.  I don’t see a clear run of performances that prove he has taken it to another level. Not yet.  I would say he played really well in the WC game. And folded on that last series where we still had a chance. I think he threw one good ball. That last series is the kind of thing a player is supposed to learn from and not repeat. We have to see him do it before we can credit him for doing it.    I would also say he has not done enough of playing at his ceiling and what we should expect as the game in game out norm is still not established.  We gonna get MNF in SF or we gonna get the WC game? Seattle or Atlanta yardage record?   Besides that he has three years of horrendous play to start the season hanging over him. Are we going to get that again or will he be over that? We can’t know that. Mind you, that isn‘t two of three it is three of three he has yet to play well to start the year as a pro. Ofer.    So, many questions remain.    As far as weapons and help… said it before. Fix the OL so we can protect him.  It is time for a 1.1 pick in his 4th season, third year in the same offense, to elevate the players we have given him. You can’t keep up the level of investment dedicated to propping him up, you have to prop up the defense too and get some balance.
