Way Too Early 53-Man Roster Prediction


Recommended Posts

QB: Trevor Lawrence, C.J. Beathard
RB: James Robinson, Carlos Hyde, Ryquell Armstead
Slash: Travis Etienne
WR: D.J. Chark, Laviska Shenault
WR: Marvin Jones Jr., Collin Johnson, Jalen Camp
TE: James O'Shaughnessy, Luke Farrell, Chris Manhertz (FB)
LT: Cam Robinson, Walker Little (LG, RT)
LG: Andrew Norwell, Ben Bartch
Center: Brandon Linder, Tyler Shatley
RG: A.J. Cann, Will Richardson (RT)
RT: Jawaan Taylor

IDL: Roy Robertson-Harris, Adam Gotsis, Jay Tufele, Taven Bryan
NT: DaVon Hamilton, Malcom Brown
EDGE Tweener (5T/7T/OLB): Dawuane Smoot, Jihad Ward
EDGE: Josh Allen, Leon Jacobs
ILB: Joe Schobert, Damien Wilson
ILB: Myles Jack, Quincy Williams
EDGE: K'Lavon Chaisson, Jordan Smith
CB: C.J. Henderson, Sidney Jones
FS: Andre Cisco, Jarrod Wilson
SS: Rayshawn Jenkins, Daniel Thomas
NB: Tyson Campbell
CB: Shaquill Griffin, Tre Herndon

ST: Jamal Agnew, Rudy Ford
K: Josh Lambo
P: Logan Cooke
LS: Ross Mattiscik

Last 5 out: Gardner Minshew (projected trade), Phillip Dorsett (just couldn't fit him in and he's a bit redundant with the drafting of Etienne), Tim Tebow (I wanted to put him for fun lol but hey here's hoping amirite), Doug Costin (I think there's a strong chance he makes it after injuries or if we move Taven Bryan/cut Taven Bryan... I went back and forth a lot on who to put in the projected 53), Dylan Moses (I expect him to be stashed on IR for a year or something of that nature)

Other notables: Josh Imatorbhebhe & Tyler Davis (PS candidates and fringe roster guys), Lerentee McCray (I could see him sticking, but struggled finding room especially when we just brought in 2 ST specialists in free agency), Shaquille Quarterman (I could see him sneaking into the LB group again, otherwise he could be a PS candidate as I believe he still has eligibility - just think Quincy Williams and Dylan Moses fit that athlete mold a bit more that Urban seems to like; plus Damien Wilson just has that reliable experience), Luq Barcoo & Chris Claybrooks (could see them sneaking in, but grouping them together here as they probably have PS potential as well or could sneak onto the roster with injuries/breakout camps), Josiah Scott (kind of like Quarterman where he's moreso a victim in philosophy change), Josh Jones (I think Daniel Thomas fits that athletic mold better and is younger), Andrew Wingard (I think it's him or Jarrod Wilson for that last true Safety spot, though I could see both making it depending on how camp and injuries shake out)

My big takeaway is how re-shaped this roster is in that I struggled a bit more than I expected getting it down to a 53, and it looks a lot more competitive than in past years and even with a simplified version of what we'll see on the field, it's also clear that there's a vision with actual Plan B & Cs in place. The only overly concerning position is TE and even there I think it's probably serviceable based off of the running game and depending on what they do with scheming/gameplanning within the season to compensate for the position.
