Re: My SWAG at the 53 man roster

QB - Brees, McNown, Griffin
RB - Ingram, Thomas, Sproles, Cadet
WR - Colston, Moore, Stills, Toon, Parker
TE - Graham, Watson, Higgins
OT - Brown, Strief, Armstead, Harris
OG - Evans, Grubbs, Jones, Lelito
C - DLP
(24)

DE - Jordan, Hicks, Foster
DT - Bunkley, Jenkins, Walker
OLB - Haralson, JR, Tez, Johnson, Richardson
MLB - Lofton, Humber, Hawthorne, Reddick
CB - Lewis, Greer, Robinson, Sweeting, White
S - Harper, Jenkins, Vaccaro, Bush
(24)

K- Hartley
P - Morstead
LS - Drescher

I can add two players to the above list. Vilma is at the top. He could be available, retire, go to either IR or the last choice of just being cut. T. Johnson is next. He's there because of his versatility on the DL. But, I've personally not seen anything from him when he's been healthy. Tanner/Roby are next. Tanner has more upside as a WR but Roby is better at special teams. Coach likes to throw the ball and probably will keep six. All of the WR's except Stills has injuries in their past. Colston hasn't played all preseason. I like IAQ but for whatever reason haven't seen much from him this preseason. Herring could make the squad due his versatility and because of all the injuries. Not a fan but they may be required to keep a slow, white, non-playmaking LB on the roster. LOL. I REALLY like how Warren has played a C this preseason, but I don't know if he can play another position. The staff likes Olsen but he's been injured and I think Lelito has outplayed him. K. Robinson can play RB in the NFL. With Cadet's ability at WR and on special teams, the Saints could keep 5 RB's and only 5 WR's. The recently signed Rolle could be a sleeper over White. I'm not convinced his roster spot is guaranteed. Especially with Vaccaro playing alot in the nickle. I also like what I've seen from CB Lindsey this preseason. He's always around the ball. Overall, since this is just an outside guess, the last 2 I'm going to keep is Johnson and Herring.

What may happen is that all of these bottom of the roster guys may be filled with special teams standouts.

We may find that Parker, Roby, Herring, Bush, IAQ, Carr, Cadet and Robinson all make the 53 in order to help a really bad looking special teams unit.

QB's - I do not see us carrying 3 QBs, never have and probably never will
WR's -We have always carried 6 WR so you can drop a QB and add a WR with out changing the gray areas if the final 2.
FB ~ You may have missed that

Not trying to nit pick i just wasn't sure how you had some extra spots.
