We're definitely seeing draft position weighing in here. Keeping Evans and some of these others like Burgess and Lewis.

Burgess?

He figures to be one of their top DBs in my opinion.

 

[fearsomefour]

Yeah there's your 9 OL right there. Evans over Anchrum wow.

Evans over Anchrum doesn’t surprise me.
Jackson making it does.

 

[Tano]

I would have kept Anchrum over Perkins and Kiser over Howard

But I am just a fan so I am all in on McVay's decisions.

 

[AvengerRam]

No mention of Earnest Brown (practice squad candidate?) and Justin Lawler yet.

Burgess?

Who knows. I didn't like his preseason games but the guy has undeniable talent so I look at him as an upside roster decision. That said if he does show up I'll be ecstatic.

 

[OldSchool]

I do think Jones will clear waivers. Smart call there IMO to go 3 for now.

I'd rather have 4 on the active roster, I don't trust Funk to stay healthy since he couldn't in college either.

Jackson based on potential... Plus might need two OTs in another yr.

Burgess was the only safety that McVay and Snead said was fighting for reps.

Anchrum is a big surprise to me. Don't understand that one at all, assuming he is a cut.

Remember Anchrum has basically spent all his time at OT. He struggled with speed. When moved inside he struggled with a new position. If he is claimed then that team must add him to their active roster. IMO that's not likely because most teams would veiw him at a OG where he has had very little experience. I think that was the plan all along and why they kept him at OT, i.e. to make it easier to get him through waivers. Once on the PS he can be a protected player if they want and coach him up at OG.

At OG his short stature allows him to play with leverage and his long arms gives him good play radius. It's where he belongs and have said so since day one. He looked better than expected in practice at OT and held his own pretty much in preseason. But there were indications he belonged inside where he had no experience.

With Noteboom and A. Jack they don't need another swing OT. His chance to make the roster is really at OG. I still think Edwards is out of position at LG and Corbett should be there. Anchrum didn't play well in his run blocking and at RG he would need to be good in that skillset.

Evans might also clear waivers though that isn't a given. So it wouldn't be a surprise to see if he is released.

Well Jones likely clears and if not a vet RB could be added or another young RB with return ability.

If we lost all 3 RBs in a single game, we have 99 to take some snaps.

 

[OldSchool]

Clearing waivers is for the PS not the active roster. I'd be happy as hell if this is the first year he ever stayed healthy but with Hendo also a magnet for little injuries that take him out of games and practice it is a hell of a dice roll to only go in with 3 active RB. I don't get how people are hesitant with injury prone players at some positions but are perfectly fine with 2 of 3 RB being injury prone. That is frightening that ratio.

 

[Psycho_X]

I'm betting Obo, Skowronek, and maybe Robinson go on the 3 game IR and Anchrum (if he isn't claimed) gets added back for at least three weeks. Jones or another RB will be added and we'll carry 4 for at least 3 weeks.

JMO, but if Perkins is making the 53 its more of a slight to Wolford than it is props to Perk.
Im sure they can work some trick plays with Perk but I seriously doubt they'd have 3 QB active

As someone else said - I highly doubt all 3 would get hurt in the same game

I bet we keep 2 RBs on the practice squad
