    Chadman got close but there were a few corrective prdictions in order:

    QB's- 3
    Leftwich, Dixon & Batch- in that order, until Ben returns- then Batch gets cut.

    RB's- 4
    Mendenhall, Moore, Redman, Summers

    WR's- 6
    Ward, Wallace, Randle El, Sanders, Brown, Battle

    TE's- 3
    Miller, Speath, McHugh (FB)

    OL- 10
    Starks, Kemoeatu, Hartwig, Pouncey, Adams, Scott, Urbik, Hills, Essex, Foster

    ST- 3
    Reed, Sepulveda, Warren

    DL- 6
    Hampton, Keisel, Smith, Hood, Hoke, Harris

    LB- 9
    Harrison, Farrior, Timmons, Woodley, Worilds, Gibson, Foote, Sylvester, Fox

    DB- 9
    Taylor, McFadden, Polamalu, Clark, Lewis, Burnett, Allen, Gay, Butler,

    I think they may carry an extra OL this season and one less DB since the 10th DB was usually Madison for Special teams and I think keeping Battle, Allen and the rookie LBs may make Madison a luxury they can't afford. I don't think they want to expose either Gibson or Sylvestor to waivers.

    On the OL, if you keep Hartwig and have Pouncey getting ready to step in at Center sometime probably soon plus Urbik getting reps at both Guard and Center what role does Legursky really have? Hartwig is probably the better insurance policy at Center.

    McHugh at TE is the much better choice over Johnson. McHugh is much better as a lead blocker out of the backfield.
    That isn't bad, but I don't see any way Eason doesn't make this team. They love the vets on the DL. In my opinion, Harris has great upside and should be kept, but I fear he may be the odd man out.
    Even if Bill Belichick was getting an atomic wedgie, his face would look exactly the same.

      Chadman has always been pretty close on these things. I wonder if maybe Tony Hills gets another shot this year and Legursky doesn't make it.

      It'll be interesting to me to see if Hills and Scott get a lot more reps at RT these last two games and perhaps Adams doesn't make the final cut?
