Quote:Perhaps Etta-Tawo can make the practice squad, but I don't see the team carrying more than five receivers with the the FB position added to the roster. ARob, Lee, Hurns, Westbrook, and Greene seem like locks. After that, he'd still be competing with Benn and that other shifty slot guy who used to play for the Colts (name escapes me). 
 

 

Actually, I totally see them carrying six WRs especially after considering who all is on their roster at the position. After the top five, I believe they'll carry a sixth WR who is basically a backup slot WR. The deal is, Dede is taking over the  primary slot WR role with the idea he might move to split end on occasion to give ARob a breather. However, Dede is not a true slot guy and I believe they want more of a traditional slot guy behind him.


 

Again, the top four are obvious with ARob, Hurns, Lee and Wesbrook. Hurns and Lee can hold down the flanker position which has me thinking the 5th guy will be a speedster who can backup outside. I've loved having Benn in this role, but I suspect the rookie Kenneth Walker III gives him a run for his money. I need to see them both, but I have the 5th spot between these two. Benn might have an advantage because he's such a big WR to do along with some decent speed, but Walker is a true 4.3 40 guy who can run circles around slower dbs. That should be a good battle. Jamal Robinson is likely also vying for this 5th spot as a split end although I just don't see him beating out Benn unless he's improved this offseason.


 

Now the 6th spot for that backup slot guy has some serious contenders, and it's partly because of these contenders that I do think they keep six. The odds of favorite for the spot is Bryan Walters, but he'll be challenged by Shane Wynn and Rashad Greene. I can also see Walker III in this mix if Benn wins the 5th spot.


 

As for the remaining WRs, I feel like Etta-Tawo is way too raw but that the Jaguars want to develop him as a jar-on-the-shelf on the Practice Squad. I can also see them carrying a second practice squad WR likely to come down to Keelan Cole or PInkard. Cole would fit the flanker role best behind Hurns and Lee.
