Couldn't even get a late round pick for AGG? Seems odd. Some very average UDFA are being traded between other teams for 5th and sixth rounders

Moreland cut?!??

AGG gone?!?

Reaves I always thought looked a step to slow for the nfl.

We have a better team than I thought.

I don't think many will be surprised by that, may make it back onto the practice squad but a bit of a disappointment after showing something in his rookie year

Here's my prediction for the final 53. Not a lot of surprises, but a couple difficult decisions.

Offense - 26
QB Ryan Fitzpatrick, Taylor Heinicke, Kyle Allen
RB Antonio Gibson, J.D. McKissic, Jaret Patterson, Peyton Barber
WR Terry McLaurin, Dyami Brown, Antonio Gandy-Golden, Curtis Samuel, Cam Sims, Adam Humphries, DeAndre Carter
TE Logan Thomas, John Bates, Sammis Reyes
OL Charles Leno Jr., Cornelius Lucas, Wes Schweitzer, Ereck Flowers, Chase Roullier, Brandon Scherff, Sam Cosmi, Saahdiq Charles, Tyler Larsen

Defense - 24
DE Chase Young, Montez Sweat, James Smith-Williams, Shaka Toney
DT Jonathan Allen, Matt Ioannidis, Daron Payne, Tim Settle
LB Jamin Davis, Cole Holcomb, Khaleke Hudson, Jon Bostic, David Mayo
DB Kendall Fuller, Jimmy Moreland, Landon Collins, Kamren Curl, Bobby McCain, William Jackson III, Benjamin St-Juste, Torry McTyer, Deshazor Everett, Jeremy Reaves, Troy Apke

ST - 3
Dustin Hopkins, Tress Way, Camaron Cheeseman
Returning kicks/punts - DeAndre Carter, Jaret Patterson


A couple notes:
OL - We are finally rid of the Wes Martin experiment. Larsen wins the backup Center job. I feel like the OL is full of starting caliber players.

WR - I wanted to keep Milne, but there's just no room. Carter wins the last WR spot due to his return abilities.

TE - I chose Sammis over Ricky based solely on potential. It's a toss-up to me.

DB - I struggled with the decision between Apke and Johnson. It is obvious to me that the coaches feel more comfortable with Apke than Johnson in the secondary. Johnson is a solid ST player, but it appears (at least in the eyes of the coaches) that Apke offers more overall. Hopefully he doesn't actually see the field much as a Corner - but you could probably say that about both of them.

With Moreland, Reaves, AGG and Barber, that's 4 guys we thought would make the team that aren't... who's making it in their place ? I had rookie Darrick Forrest in there and looks like he will... other ideas ?

I really thought Moreland, AGG, and Reaves would be safe. I know Apke is fast but he is terrible and coverage and offers no flexibility to the team.

Looks like Dax makes the team if AGG is gone.

Definitely not a surprise to me. Many of us were high on him when he was drafted, but he has mainly been a huge disappointment ever since. Rivera gave him an opportunity last year and he didn't seize it.

Stroman, Johnson, Reaves, and Moreland - that’s a lot of guys from our secondary last year who were axed.

At least Moreland and Reaves will be signed elsewhere I’ll bet.

Need for a vet outside corner just became a huge need.

We should have some decent options.
