I don't think we will see 11 DL/Edge players.  10 maybe but if we carry 11 that means we are going to be thin at other areas.  And being thin at QB (in your example) after the last 2 years we have seen from Cam's shoulder, might not be a good idea.

I dont think we go into the season with 6 WR. If we go with 6, I think godwin over robinson. Sounds like Godwin is not going to be an easy PS stash.

I agree--and if Smith does not have a good camp....

I think, with Cam's shoulder having not played a whole season, we have to keep 3 QBs. 

Not sure how Obada fits---

Pretty sure Heinecke and Allen qualify for the PS, if we get to the 3rd QB depth isn't really going to matter. 

I think we carry 6 receivers due to not having a returner come in to replace Byrd. Robinson is more proven as a receiver over Ross, and Godwin as a 7th rounder isn't guaranteed anything.

Not sure either of them will be worse than Grier. I think one of these two will be the backup. Grier will be the third stronger unless he really improves and the other of these two will be eligible for the PS. I would like to think Grier can be the backup but from what I have heard, he is not ready yet.

You are right it is way too early. Let's see how the QBs do before assuming we keep 2 QBs and Grier is the guy. Let's see how Newton does to see if he is 100%. Lots of good battles which will decide how our roster gets built this year.

I also think we keep 3 QB's. I like the little we saw from Allen, but I assume that the coaches weren't overly impressed or they wouldn't have gotton so hot and bothered by Grier. I predict (without a snap being taken in training camp) Heinicke getting the QB3 spot as more of a teacher role for Greir. He has 3 years with Norv.

Allen seems to play well but he is so small I doubt he can stay healthy. Heinicke has the size to play but didnt seem to click like Allen did. Both weren't ideal which is why we drafted Grier. Hopefully Cam is 100% and backup isn't a critical.position this season.

I don't see us hanging onto Butler & I don't think we roll with six receivers, but it wouldn't surprise me if we did. 

Secondary scares the piss outta me, especially safety. Reid is the only good one. Gaulden has potential, but still needs work and Jones doesn't deserve a roster spot IMO. He's a below average safety and I never understood why we keep players solely for special teams. Most kickoffs result in touchbacks and most punts result in fair catches. I just don't see why he's needed. Get someone who can play both.

I could see us trading for a safety like Josh Jones or picking up someone who is cut at a number of positions.

I think we carry 6 WRs. If we're happy with what Cam's showing, we'll only roll with two QBs IMHO. I have three on here just in case.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
