Additional Notes:
1. QB Sudfeld might make the team if they decide to keep 3 QBs rostered, but I hope they roll with 2. If an injury happens, they can pick him back up, or bring back Mullens.
2. Between running backs Hasty, Mitchell and Gallman, one has to go. My personal choice is Gallman, though he's the most polished running and great in pass protection. The preseason showed me Hasty's quickness and vision and I fell in love with Mitchell's fearlessness running the ball with his one game of tape.
3. Not out of the question for them to keep four TEs.
4. I honestly think Benjamin doesn't make the cut and Jauan Jennings gets his spot.
5. I really liked the way C Brendal played yesterday, but playing all game is typical of a player not making the final 53. I'm cheering that he does though, just not sure he's versatile enough to make it. Brunskill can always be a backup center with Banks filling in at his spot at guard.
6. D-line is deep, very deep. I really wanted to give the last spot to Yarbrough over Key, but I think the coaching staff likes Key more.
7. Clinton-Dix might make the team, but if he does, he's been susceptible on the back end. I'm not confident with him back there, but a pro bowl veteran presence who doesn't get injured might be good to keep considering the injury history of our starting safeties.
8. Who are our kick and punt returners??? Mitchell and Ambry Thomas both got action at kick returning during the game against the Raiders.
