I believe we will keep 7 WR. We did last season and that was with keeping 4 RBs. And I think we'll only keep 3 RBs this season so there will def be room to carry that 7th WR. I could see that extra spot going to DL or DB.

Did we? I honestly don't remember but I can't think of who the 7th would have been. Hodgins was cut and on the PS before being called up for the Steelers game. When he was sent back down to the PS afterwards the Giants claimed him.

I think we will keep 6 WR this year. They are going to run way more 12 personnel and will have less snaps to go around for the depth wide receivers. I also think Shorter may not make the final cut. There are a couple of guys behind him making some noise right now.

Stevenson was the 7th but forgot he was on IR all year before getting cut. So technically did have 6 so that's my bad. Even so, if we go from 4 RB to 3, would leave it open to us keeping 7 WR. We kept 4 RB with one being the KR/PR but now if Harty/Shakir/Isabella handle those duties, I could see keeping an extra WR active.

That is a good call. Seems like a pretty easy swap.

I assume one or two of the RB's in camp will be on the practice squad so they can get called up as needed. and Gilliam could fill in if crap hit the fan one game.
