Roster Outlook – Preseason Game 3
August 24, 2011
Posted by on Here is my updated roster prediction going into the third preseason game against the Redskins:
OFFENSE:
- QB – 3 : Flacco, Taylor
- RB – 4 : Rice, R. Williams, Parmele, Allen
- FB – 1 : Leach
- WR – 6 : Boldin, Evans, D. Reed, T. Smith, T. Doss, M. Smith
- TE – 3 : Dickson, Pitta, Wilson
- OL – 9 : Oher, Grubbs, Birk, Yanda, McKinnie, J. Reid, Cousins, Harewood, Mattison
DEFENSE/ST:
- CB – 6 : C. Williams, Foxworth, J. Smith, Carr, Webb, C. Brown
- S – 4 : E. Reed, Zbikowski, Pollard, Nakamura
- LB – 8 : R. Lewis, Suggs, J. Johnson, McClain, Ellerbe, Kruger, Gooden, Kindle, Ayanbadejo
- DL – 7 : Ngata, Cody, Redding, A. Jones, McKinney, Divens, McPhee
- ST – 3 : Cundiff, Koch, M. Cox
- Bubble : LB Burgess, LB Phillips, WR J. Hardy, WR J. Harper, RB M. Lawrence, QB Cantwell, TE Drew
- Practice Squad: WR L. Williams, S Silva, RB Berry, C Bartholomew, C Barnes, DE McClellan, DE/OLB McAdoo
I moved Cantwell and Drew to the bubble list and added McKinnie as a tackle and Wilson at TE (he played early against the Chiefs). I also made some changes to reflect a better idea of where players stand on the depth chart. I don’t think the Ravens will go into the season with just two QB’s, so I’m starting to think a couple linebackers and/or D-linemen might be in jeopardy of being cut (Gooden, Burgess, Ayanbadejo, Divens, McKinney). I suppose it’s also growing more and more possible as time goes on that Birk starts the season on PUP.
