"Official" ???

We've taken three CB's now. How can you even predict which ones will make the roster?

Obviously a fair amount of guess-work involved...but you don't exactly see 4th round picks not make the 53 man roster too often

Aaaaaand he was a 4th rounder.

Huh? Quinton Patton did make the 53-man roster and he projects him to again this year. His point was that 4th-round picks almost always make the 53.

What? What's so bad about using "official"? He's saying this is the "official prediction" thread, i.e. consolidate all discussion into this topic.

Exactly, that's why my prediction for the 5th corner would be Johnson, because 4th round picks make the team. Now, is it possible one of the other rookies or Cook or Morris beats out Wright and/or Cox? Absolutely. But it's just a guess, take a deep breath and don't take it so seriously man.

I missed the word "not" up there. That is my bad. Next beer is on me.

Regardless, I don't think you can call which CB's will make the team right now. I mean, Brock was undrafted after all.

Looks pretty good overall. I could possibly see Lloyd making the team instead of James. I think they will get rid of James and give the KR/PR duties to Ellington.

This is a pretty solid prediction. Not too much I'd change at all.

I think it'll be Cox vs. Morris for the 4th CB spot, and I think it'll be TJE vs. Dial for that DL spot.

Going to be an interesting camp for sure.

QB - Kaepernick, Gabbert
RB - Gore, Lattimore, Hyde, Hunter
FB - Miller
WR - Crabtree, Boldin, Johnson, Lloyd, Patton, Ellington, Osgood
TE - Davis, McDonald, Celek
LT - Staley
LG - Iupati, Looney
C - Martin, Kilgore
RG - Boone
RT - Davis, Martin
LE - McDonald, Jerrod-Eddie
RE - Smith, Carradine
UT - Dorsey, Williams
LOLB - Brooks, Skuta
LILB - Wilhoite, Borland
RILB - Willis, Moody
ROLB - Smith, Lemonier, Lynch
LCB - Culliver, Cook, Johnson
RCB - Brock, Ward, Wright
FS - Reid, Spillman
SS - Bethea, Ventrone
K - Dawson
P - Lee
LS - McDermott

I expect one CB and/or one WR to be de-activated on a regular basis throughout the season...perhaps Osgood/Johnson/Wright
When Bowman returns, expect Brandon Lloyd to be released and Nick Moody/Aaron Lynch to join the de-activation rotation.

NFI - OG Brandon Thomas, CB Keith Reasor

Practice Squad - QB Bethel-Thompson, OT Marquardt, DE Okoye, UT Dial, CB Morris, CB Acker, WR Jacobs, 7th Rounder

Drop James, add a CB.

Also Reaser will start on PUP also, he is recovering from a Torn ACL, he is a stash away player.

Well, we can't call a lot of guys making the team for certain right now. It's a prediction.

My money is on Dontae Johnson making the 53 and Reaser and Acker heading to the PS.
