Who are the return candidates besides Smith? I could see them going light at WR.
Schraeder, Mario Williams and we signed the guy from Philly who we haven't seen which doesn't bode well for the bottom of the roster WR's in Brittain and Hunter has returned some and has the speed. Another thing in Hunter's favor is McVay used Corum early before he got hurt last year and Corum was the #2 RB.

Guys who could be cut that may be at risk of being poached if we try to sneak them onto the practice squad:

QB Bennett
RB Schrader
WR X Smith, Presley, Williams
TE Allen
OL Leveston, WLampkin (assuming healthy), McMahon, McClendon, Dedich

DL Murchison, D Johnson, B Norton
LB Dolac
CB Wallace, CLampkin, Woods
S Valcarcel

No judgement or preferences here; just thinking that these are the 'bubble' guys I think we could potentially lose if we tried to pass them through waivers to sneak them onto the practice squad.

Do I think we would lose them all? Of course not. But COULD they lose some of these guys? I think so.

I'd be sure to keep:
Bennett
Schrader (Rivers PS)
Allen
Dolac
Wallace

Not sure on OL, but leaning Quessenbery, Lampkin (if OK) & Leveston.
One of March/Desjuan.
Hoping for Valcarcel, CBLampkin, Presley for PS.

You can feel the roster improvement by looking at the cuts, that's for damn sure. It's going to be tough. Here's what I'm thinking now for the offense:

QB (3) Stafford, Garoppolo, Bennett.
RB (4) Williams, Shrader, Corum, Hunter.
TE (4) Higbee, Parkinson, Allen, Ferguson*.
OL (8) Jackson, Avila, Shelton, Dotson, Havenstein, Limmer, McClendon, Quessenberry. <Lampkin IR>
WR(5) Nacua, Adams, Atwell, Whittington, Smith.

*= Ferguson to IR potentially, which would open up a roster spot for Mumpfield. Don't like cutting Mumpfield but ST has to be prioritized.

Now there's a chance the Rams don't have Shrader as high as I do in that room, and his cut would enable Mumpfield having a roster spot. But if they cut him he is at risk to be added to another team. Also Shrader fits well in the offense with his pass catching ability if we have Jimmy at QB early on, where he will need dumpoff targets who can RAC.

I don’t see the need to keep a 4th RB. It’s not like we’re saving that guy for the future. Unlike a potential OL, LB, DL that’s being groomed to be a future starter.

If Schader gets picked up off the PS, big whoop - get some other RB that’s are available all around for the PS. Heck, We’ve even got Whitt who can play RB in an emergency.

I keep clicking on this thread, expecting us to have cut someone.

Don't get my hopes up that we finally cut Reeder and Kendrick!!!!
I hope those are the 1st cuts....
