Thats 37 locks IMO, leaving 16 open spots.

On the roster I see these guys making it in the 16.

QB Josh Johnson
RB Brandon Jacobs
WR Randy Moss
OLB Parys Haralson (I think he takes a pay cut)

That would leave 12 spots to fill.

On the roster I see the following as gone or possibly gone.

RB Anthony Dixon
WR Kyle Williams
TE Nate Byham

I don't think we can pencil in guys like Cartwright, Person, or Jones now before the draft. The 49ers could easily take better players and keep them on the roster. I like Jones but I dont think he's viewed as someone that can actually contribut at safety, that's why I think we looked at him as a WR. Dixon is gone IMO, Byham could stay if we keep four TEs and I really hope your right about Kyle F'n Williams being gone
Josh Johnson will b are number 2
Kyle Williams isn't going anywhere...the kid had one bad game, albeit the NFC Championship...time to get over it and give him a chance to redeem himself. He has value as a slot receiver and I'm sure figures into Harbaugh's offensive plan. As for the rest, it's premature to think about locks 'til after the draft.
How is this even considered prior to the draft?
