53 - How I'd Do It

#1

QB:

Bortles, Allen

 
RB:

T.J. Yeldon, Chris Ivory, Corey Grant (KR), Joe Banyard / Denard Robinson

(Banyard's nifty footwork may have given him an edge last night after D-Rob had to sit with a poked eye)

 
WR: 

Robinson, Hurns, Lee, Greene, Walters 

(Evans and Benn are wildcards here at the 5th - Look for Lawrence on the PS - he's promising)

 
TE:

Thomas, Lewis, Sterling, Bowman/Koyack

(Take your pick with the 4th spot. I'd guess Koyack stays and Bowman to PS- could be the opposite)

 
O-Line:

Beachum, Joeckel, Linder, Cann, Parnell, Reed, Well,  Shatley, xxxxx?

(last spot could be Hill, Slater or Omameh - but I kinda' think it may end up being a waiver guy for swing tackle)

 
D-Line:



Jackson, Marks, Fowler, Ngakoue, Miller,  Odrick, Alualu, Jones, Day, *Smith or Holmes

(IR- Bennett)

* could go either way here - I kinda' like the idea of going with Holmes 

 
LB:



Jack, Poz, Smith, Skuta, Ryan Davis, Pullard, Tripp 

7 linebackers?!?!

Yeah. Davis is a back-up D-lineman and ST player as well   --  and the Jags have a history of needing to plug-in for injured players at LB throughout the season in recent years.  Tripp is a good ST contributor as well.  
 

CB:


 House, Ramsey, Amukamara, Colvin*, Gratz, Johnson (until Colvin's back)

 

(Boddy-Calhoun to PS)

 
Safety:

Gipson, Cyprien, Thompson, Wilson

 
ST: 

Myers, Nortman , Tinker

 

Look for a potential waiver pick up at K - Myers may be on his way

Koyack at TE for his blocking. I think he will replace Lewis in 2017.

 

And I agree with Holmes. Cannot see them not keeping him on the 53.

I mostly agree, but if Dave isn't lying to himself he'll cut Lewis and keep both Bowman and Koyack. Lewis at this point does nothing well, he's an afterthought as a receiver and his blocking is no longer good enough to consider it worth keeping. Plus he's an old guy on a young team sucking up a roster spot that can be used to continue moving the franchise forward.

Holmes and Allen both need to be on the 53.


I agree with SeldomRite on Lewis as well.


Good list NYC.

If this were a Twitter post, I would sparkly-heart it.

I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!

Hey guys, Marcedes looked good on a play, guess we can ignore his holding penalties, bad routes, and lack of effort on other plays since they didn't put videos of them up on NFL.com.

If Bortles gets in a freak hide-a-bed accident this week and goes on IR before Green Bay, Henne maybe wins us 4 games MAX. Brandon Allen wins us 2. At that point, what's the difference? Top 5 pick either way- save the roster spot and go with the young guy IMO.

Cannot really disagree with any of them. But I assume all four make it.

I would be shocked if all 4 make it. I think Evans and Denard are gone for sure. The other two are admittedly less likely to happen.

LOL.

This is to combat your terrible statement about Lewis' blocking. 

 

So your statement regarding the "bad effort" and "bad routes" are irreverent to this comment.

I have had my issues with Marcedes but I have never considered him a bad effort guy. Someone is fabricating complaints if they are throwing that out.
