Last season, undrafted Ben Ellefson started 4 games and Tyler Davis started 0. Castoff Eric Saubert was active in an equal number of games (8) and had more receptions (3) than Tyler Davis (0). For someone that was a draft pick, Tyler should have gotten greater activity over these 2, which he didn't. It makes me speculate he was/is underwhelming and a long shot this year.
He was injured all last season.

No. He was game active in weeks 3 through 10, and then in games 15 and 17. The other games, he was on the inactive list, not any injured list.

I think Tyler Davis is going to ball out. Unless he has a bad training camp and pre season, I can't see him being cut.
I disagree. No way Davis will beat our O'Shaughnessy for the receiving tight end spot with his 0 career catches. Manhertz was signed by Meyer/Baalke and is clearly our blocking tight end. That leaves Farrell who I don't think they would have used a fifth round pick on if they remotely liked Davis. I believe Davis is still eligible for the practice squad, so that is a possibility.
BTW, I'm not mentioning any other tight end candidates. There's a separate thread for that.
QB - Lawrence, Beathard
RB - Robinson, Etienne, Hyde, Armstead
TE - Ertz, O’Shaughnessy, Manhertz, Farrell, Tebow

Defense: 25
DE - Tufele, Bryan, Costin
NT - Brown, Hamilton
DE - Robertson-Harris, Ward, Gotsis
OLB - Allen, Smoot (versatility to move inside)
MLB - Schobert, Quarterman
WLB - Jack, Wilson, Moses (Jacobs if Moses to injured list)
OLB - Chaisson, Smith McCray

NB - Campbell, Herndon
Special Teams: 3
K - Lambo

If I had to pick the UDFA roster surprises, I predict Herndon gets beat out by DJ Daniel, and assuming his knee is okay, Dylan Moore beats out Quarterman.
Does it seem like they got Tater Cakes Bryan and DaVon Hamilton mixed up?

Yes, but it would make heads explode if they got it right so I'll pretend they know what they're doing for a while.
For the same reasons I expect Tebow and Wingard on the 53-man roster.

Aside from Taven Bryan being listed as a starter, it seems like a reasonable take today.
Yeah.
I'd have Taven Bryan down the depth chart in rotation-land, Davon Hamilton at both rotational NT and DT, and you could also probably go ahead and pencil in a start for Cisco at FS over Jarrod Wilson.
