That can't be right. I heard that he was guaranteed a roster spot when we signed him.

I must have missed that.

53-man prediction because why not:

QB - Dak, Milton
RB - Williams, Sanders, Blue, Luepke
WR - Lamb, Pickens, Turpin, Tolbert, Flournoy, Brooks
TE - Ferguson, Schoonmaker, Spann-Ford
OL - Guyton, Smith, Beebe, Booker, Steele, Thomas, Bass, Hoffman, Adeniji, Charles

Edge - Parsons, Fowler, Kneeland, Williams, Ezeiruaku, Houston
Interior DL - Osa, Thomas, Brown, Winfrey, Toia
LB - Murray, Sanborn, Liufau, James, Clark
CB - Diggs, Bland, Elam, Booth, Childress
S - Hooker, Wilson, Bell, Mukuamu

Specialists: Aubrey, Anger, whoever the LS is

This isn't what I'd do exactly but it's a prediction, if it were me I'd keep Mafah over Sanders and Cornelius over one of the vet OT's. I also have a sneaking suspicion that they're going to keep Mazi over someone like Toia, and maybe even Turner over Houston, but I'm not going to predict that because it'd be too annoying.

I'm also assuming that Revel is on some sort of NFI-type list that doesn't count to the 53 just yet, and that Mingo will be on short-term IR, but they might cut Flournoy or Brooks while they're sorting out the logistics behind Mingo being on the 53 initially, then going to IR, etc.

I'm hoping they don't burn a roster spot on CJ Goodwin to be a pure ST'er, but knowing them they'll probably get rid of someone like Mukuamu to keep him.

They definitely will.

Cornelius would be good news, definitely don't love Mazi, Sanders or Booth, although the staff seems to really like Booth for some strange reason.

He was terrible last year and he gave up about 7 catches in the preseason in maybe 4-5 quarters of play. I can't think of a single thing he actually did well during the preseason besides the flukey INT return.

If it results in his making the roster, that may well have been the most disastrous play for us, in hindsight.

Stupid to cut Asim Richards

 

[Cowboysrock55]

What I don't get with the Miles Sanders thing is why worry about keeping him on the roster? Do we really think another team is going to snatch him up? If you're that worried about needing another veteran back, then put him on the practice squad. And if someone else really does sign him, WGAS go find another random veteran back on the streets. He isn't good and we know he isn't good. He just brings a veteran presense, that's all.

Translation: they want to see how it goes with the current group, and if it goes shitty they'll hope Mafah can bring a spark.

Sanders looked like shit.

Jevonte we gave the Zeke fucking treatment so we have no idea. And the only guy I feel sort of OK about is Blue. Just fucking stupid. Mafah looks like a reliable and steady guy who I feel like they are pulling the IR stash game with and I hate it.

If the RB situation sucks he's going to play this year, I think this only keeps him out maybe 6 weeks or something.
