Clearly a kicker Or is it an ILB or OLine or is it RB? I can't remember all the positions I'v heard we're terrible at
Does Rosen have to clear waivers first? Not sure for a guy with only 2 years service accrued tbh. If so he can't be signed right now.Wonder if Josh Rosen could be a candidate for the 53rd roster spot.
Has only played under head coaches with defensive backgrounds. Wouldn't a year near home in CA, under an offensive minded HC be tempting for him to consider? NFL Network mentioned Buffalo as a possible landing spot but that is under another defensive-minded HC.
Not sure playing-time should be the top consideration for him. Also do not know if it is realistic. A good spot where he could be one snap from playing, with good offensive talent, makes sense.
Got to admit that John Wolford as the back-up does not inspire confidence with me.
I'm guessing that they will put in a waiver claim on former Cowboys LB Francis Bernard.
I would assume he has to clear waivers, otherwise the team that claims him has to take on the remainder of his rookie contract.Does Rosen have to clear waivers first? Not sure for a guy with only 2 years service accrued tbh. If so he can't be signed right now.
I'd rather have Wolford over a stiff and awkward Josh RosenWonder if Josh Rosen could be a candidate for the 53rd roster spot.

ILB isn't a huge problem simply from the fact that it's not a fulltime position. It's OLB that is the problem. I know people didn't like my insinuation about strings being pulled for Sloman. But if you think it doesn't happen on the Rams, there is the case of Eric Banks DE who is painfully slow to be playing DE at the NFL level. How slow? How about 4.9+ slow. He's also perhaps the rawest of all the UDFA DL in camp. But his ace card was a personal connection to Eric Henderson....hmmmm. Normally I wouldn't really care because he's at the bottom of the roster, but with Lewis probably going to end up on IR, OLB has depth issues.
It looks like Staley is going to trot out swinging door SJD at NT again. So Dallas and the Niners will be able to run wild up the middle. Think I'm overstating the issue? Why do you think they signed Robinson? Because teams were blowing right through SJD using only a center or OG to blow him off the LOS, not even a double team. This allows them to double AD and run right by him. The D-line is going to be soft in the middle against the run again just like last year. Kiser will be the only player who will be able to stop the run close to the LOS.
So they have a LB who can't run so probably won't play and be inactive all year and a 53% PK.
