Ah wait:
Dorsey is still active but can be designated as IR/to return til the 2nd of september.
what about Marcus Martin's designation?
Assumed Roster:
QB: Kaep/Gabbert/JJ (3)
RB: Gore/Hyde/LMJ/Winston (4)
WR: Boldin/Crabtree/Johnson/Ellington/Patton (6)
TE: Davis/McDonald/Nelson (3)
O-Line: Staley/Iupati/Kilgore/Looney/Davis/Snyder/Bykowski/Seymour/Farrell (9)
FB: Miller (1)
D-Line: RayMac/Williams/Smith/TJD/Dial/Carradine (6)
OLB: Brooks/Smith/Skuta/Lynch/Lemonier (5)
ILB: Willis/Borland/Wilhoite/Moody (4)
CB: Brock/Culliver/Ward/Morris/Cox (5)
S: Reid/Bethea/McRay/Dahl (4)
LS, Punter, Kicker are another 3 players.
Comments:
-Lynchs would be claimed off waivers, imho. Way too much talent to lose him like that. Additionally to that, I assume that Aldon will be suspended, thats why I would carry 5 OLBs
-at first, I wanted to go with 3 ILBs because Skuta played ILB at college and could do it for us in case of huge emergency. I don't like Wilhoite and Moody but I had to keep some STer on the roster (Spillman, Ventrone, Osgood are goners by my assumption).
-at CB, anything can happen. There is an outside chance that Cully could be gone. Cox is not in for sure as well as Cook is not gone.
-I would like to keep Lloyd given his huge experience and ability but he is not a STer at all. Crabs, Boldin and Johnson are experienced as well. This is enough experience for the WR corps.
-Dobbs and Okoye are gone and would go through waivers, though I'm not sure whether Dobbs is eligible for PS. I think that Okoye would go unclaimed.
-at TE, Carrier could be kept instead of Nelson, of course.
Given that, the following guys would be cut:
1)CB Cook
2)CB Johnson
3)CB Acker
4)DT Okoye
5)DT Purcell
6)FB Tukuafu
7)G Netter
8)LB Skov
9)LB Thomas
10)RB Smith
11)S Spillman
12)S Ventrone
13)T Philipp
14)TE Carrier
15)TE Cleveland
16)DT Dobbs
17)WR Lewis
18)WR Lloyd
19)WR Osgood
20)WR Washington
Marcus Martin and Dorsey would be 21 and 22 respectively.
Out of these cuts, I would try to get to the PS the following guys:
1)CB Johnson
2)CB Acker
3)DT Okoye
4)DT Purcell
5)T Philipp
6)DT Dobbs, if eligible
7)WR Lewis
8)WR Washington
9)LB Skov
