We kept Bell?

Yep. Apparently he was having a very good camp even though he had a couple drops in the preseason games. I think keeping him was a good move.

Something about bell makes me uncomfortable. It feels like he's always about to fumble

He who shall not be named is why.

Niners WRs should be banned from wearing #10. And under no circumstance should a #10 be allowed to return punts

They probably still view him as someone to run Deebo's plays, if he is ever injured.

Exactly, I had the same feeling with Kyle Williams, I never worried when Trent Taylor was catching the ball or Ray Ray too.

Time for my prediction, this is given nothing changes with Trent/BA status and no trades/FA signings

QB (3)
Purdy, Dobbs, Allen - no surprises here

RB (5)
CMC, Mason, Mitchell, Guerendo, Juice - also no surprises

TE (3)
Kittle, Saubert, Willis - one of the tougher groups to predict, Latu and/or Tonges can take 4th spot.

WR (7)
Aiyuk, Deebo, Jennings, Cowing, Pearsall, Conley, Bell - given BA uncertainty and Pearsall/Jennings injuries, I think they go 7 and Ronnie is given another chance he doesn't really deserve. Or they go 4 TEs and 6 WRs

OL (9)
Moore, Banks, Brendel, Puni, McKivitz, Kingston, Zakelj, Burford, Hubbard - this only has 3 guys who can play tackle, they might cut and re-sign Parker to PS. I can see 10 OL and Parker making it too

DL(8)
Bosa, Collins, Hargrave, Floyd, Gross-Matos, Elliot, Givens, Beal - Barrett will be the PS guy but I think they will get another guy from cuts/trade in addition on the edge. 7 guy rotation with Gross-Matos hurt is very shallow depth for a Kocurek DL

LB (6)
Warner, Campbell, Winters, DFF, Robinson, Graham - The toughest to predict ? Graham could be the last cut instead of Bethune, Winters injury could put him on IR or DFF or even Robinson could be cut. Literally everyone besides Warner or Campbell can be moved somewhere.

CB (6)
Ward, Lenoir, Yiadom, Green, Ya-Sin, Luter Jr - potentially they can cut and re-sign Ya-Sin to PS, but hes looked great in preseason and seems he can play outside corner unlike Womack.

S (3)
Brown, Odum, Mustapha - Walker will be cut and re-signed to PS and will be elevated the first few games, just like the Niners have done with Gipson two years ago

Specialists (3)

Moody, Wish, Pepper - no surprises

Biggest questions - size of TE and WR room, last LB spot, last CB spot, last backup OT spot

Let's see how I did

QBs- nailed it
WRs - nailed it
Specialists - nailed it
RBs - hard to predict Mitchell out for the year but I also wouldnt have ever guessed Patrick Taylor would get the roster spot
TEs - Saubert cut, even if he comes back tomorrow, is definitely a surprise. Willis cut a mild surprise and other cuts not surprising. Tonges has stood out but I wasnt sure if they were giving him a roster spot
OL - didnt think theyd only carry two tackles, wanted Kingston to stay
DL - didnt think theyd keep Sam OK
LB - the one cut ended up being Graham instead of Bethune which I mentioned
CB- Ya-Sin being cut is shocking but hopefully hes back tomorrow. I really think they should cut their ties with Ambry
S - thought Huf would start on PUP but seems they dont have trust in Odum/Mustapha/Walker and think Huf can legit be back in a couple of weeks

So CB Thomas and OL Feliciano go to IR, OT Trent and TE Saubert come back (unless we pluck someone else's cut at tight end).

Dude routinely got destroyed every time he saw the field. He's just too small and too weak. He's built like a receiver and looks like one trying to take on NFL DEs.

I'm not sure I understand the 2 TE's. Kittle gets hurt a lot. I understand the backup is not much of a blocker. But more of a receiver. So what if we need a blocker or Kittle goes down for a few games? Keeping Bell at WR is a big surprise. But probably the first cut if Aiyuk DIVA comes back.

I think Saubert will be back tomorrow. Or Logan Thomas. Probally a gentlemen's agreement with one of them that they will be brought back once Ambry and Feliciano go to IR. Rock Ya Sin might be the other. Rock Ya Sin for Ambry and Saubert for Feliciano.

I'm assuming they are going to bring someone else in
