Butker over Gano? Interesting.

Also I think Tyler Larsen makes the roster.

Ed Dickson ain't making this team especially over Scott Simonson 

[E CaT PanTHer 2]

if Bersin made the roster with Gettleman at the helm, i'm 100% certain he makes the 53 with Hurney in charge now.

Scott Simonson has done nothing to warrant a roster spot.

He fits in well with our TEs not named Greg Olsen. Scrubs.

Gano has kicked his last football wide right for this team.

Don't worry Sanjay, Hurney stated some players might change positions, so Funchess will be our TE2 alongside Olsen.

Fine by me.

Would rather trot someone else out there to miss them for a change.

I don't like this thread because it's not full of sanctimonious Gettleman grovelling

So, in summary-

Funchess went from being a candidate to package in a deal to move back into the first round of the 2017 draft to being on the chopping block.

Can't see us keeping 4 RBs & a fullback.  I'd predict an extra WR instead or another safety or CB for ST.

I don't see CAP making the roster... but then, we know Marty loves his RBs.  So things have changed a bit since I last did a roster projection.
