One of Rashad Greene and Jaydon Mickens is going to make the team as the punt returner. That puts us at five. Moncrief might as well be a lock, although his contract leaves a touch of wiggle room if he just Jerry Porters it up out there. For Lazard to make the team at receiver, Moncrief would pretty much have to quit.

At tight end, he would almost certainly be behind ASJ and Paul, but beyond that? Koyack, O'Shaughnessey and Grinnage are far, far from locks to make the team. There's a chance for him to be the primary backup to ASJ, a player with a history of missing games. Just from a numbers and available talent perspective, you'd think TE makes more sense unless Chark and Westbrook are going to handle returns or the team has already promised him a spot on the PS at receiver.

There is always attrition due to injuries. At least one of those WR will come down with some major or semi-major injury in OTA's or training camp resulting in them starting the season on the PUP or IR. The fact that we have this many WR that we can legitimately consider as assets to the team is great news all around. Won't even consider this an issue until the last roster cut deadline.
