I can see Reaser, potentially Theus or Gilliam let go in favor of someone we covet more off waivers.
Haha...exact thoughts here too. Duh.

Guys pushed veterans push starters/backups to get their spots.
Really good to see.

Average is not cutting it anymore. They are looking for young talent. Barkley, Dial, and Kerly are alm example of being serviceable is not enough.

i wish they would have kept 3 QB's and a back up FB. Instead, they have 8 linebackers.

LOL, I can't help it, maybe we're the same poster? who knows?
I'd go with for sure, QB Mullens(Unless a better QB is out there), RB Bibbs, FB McCloskey, WR Smelter, TE Hikutini, LT Williams Jr., DL Nwachuwku, PK Rose(I think he may get picked up though, maybe on waivers or off our PSquad, he has a strong leg) I would have said a CB but both Redmond and Iworah were waived/injured, and will revert to IR if they clear waivers. I'd also like C John Flynn on the PSquad. Austin Calitro would be cool, can play MIKE and WILL.

Huh? a backup FB? Really? Celek and Paulsen could play there if needed. And not a fan of 3 QBs, rather keep a 3rd on PS, and have the extra spot for somepne with a future or who can help elsewhere.

On the current 53 man roster I count 24 Baalke guys. That's about 45%. (For those who care)

22 for sure, Staley was Pre-Baalke(2007 1st), and Bowman(2010 could be seen as more McCloughan, as he wasn't GM till 2011, even though he oversaw the draft in 2010).

Figured that would be about right. Anytime a new regime comes in and has a 2 win team, you better be flipping 50% of the roster. LOL
