Predicting the final 53

My under the radar surprise non-cut is DL Casey Toohill, none of us talked about him possibly making the team.

And we're focused on Apke vs Moreland because we wanted the former cut and the later kept, but maybe Moreland's cut has more to do with what they think of Darryl Roberts. McTyer was a near lock in my mind, but I had questions about Roberts, he made somenice physical plays in PS wk3, maybe they'd like his size and potential to play outside over Moreland's skills as a slot CB.

I think it speaks volumes to the weakness of the LB group that half were cut. I agree, they have to be bringing in someone, KJ Wright still seems like the obvious target.

Yeah Mayo, Norris and Kunaszyk were slow AF, sub par jags.

I'm kinda torn: I'm glad they cut them all, it means they know they have to bring in better guys... but then I'm like, we were all screaming "sign a quality vet LB" all offseason, why are they realizing it now ?
Who ever the new LBs will be, they could've used the reps in camp...

Yeah sure he's doing his job. Is this really worth more than a quality slot CB that can play outside and might start somewhere else ? I mean we're gonna have a rookie CB in our nickel package... and he looked good but we could have used the security blanket.

Well any player would want to be in that over in the signing on the having on a winning SB contender on it there.

Exactly.

Rivera called him a luxury and one of the best ST players in the league.

As long as he never plays a snap on D thats fine. He better ball out on ST’s.

Apke was in on 42% of the defensive snaps last year. He's likely the 5th corner out of 6 on this depth chart. My guess is he'll see field less as a corner this year, than he did at safety last year...unless there are injuries of course.

It's odd to see a safety turned into a corner. I'm used to seeing it the other way around - usually later in a corner's career.

Ow my brain.

As for Apke I'm gonna take a stab and say he's one of those guys who works hard but isn't athletically gifted. So yeah his play might never be good but his work ethic keeps him around.
