One thing that concerns me is the lack of Seahawks canopic jars

Shallots and derring-do! Are the Seahawks creating a "new" position with Witherspoon? Basically asking him to do things outside the purview of a NCB?

I still think Cade Johnson, a great guy to spend a day at the beach with, is the best of the other guys at WR and will make the roster. My hunch is that he might not be as good on special teams as Bobo and Thompson, but that he's the most ready/versatile to fill in for Eskridge at WR#4 or in case of an injury to one of our top three.

I like you got Jake on the 53.

Good to see you are helping out some people.

I'm not rooting any player to be cut... ok that's a lie... And it's not Bellore! I accept Petes ride or die for Nicky, just as I will blame him for every single missed play we make. But if Eskridge were to be cut i'd have zero bad feelings. Don't feel bad sticking my neck out to say that someone like him being cut won't overall negatively impact the team, but we might we see the opposite. But if Pete sides with him as a third ride or die (after Nicky & Adams, but at least Adams gets the protection of being potentially a special player who's just injury unlucky - and not whatever Nick is or a horrible person) then I get another target to blame everything on.

I hope Morris makes it! I'd certainly give him a shot over Jones or Smith (or the aforementioned Bellore or Eskridge). He won't make it through waivers to the practice team, unlike Jones or Smith who have good chances of slipping through the cracks. Same with Reed II, also because i'm sold on the 3-2-1-6 Palm Tree Defence.

I like the rationale provided by Seaside Joe, a very good friend of mine*, with this roster projection.

* Not a friend. But I read his newsletter.

There has to be a question mark or two surrounding Young's "sports hernia". If not Young maybe one of the UDFA TEs makes it onto the initial roster?

Slow down, Ken! I've still 11,432 crystal ball pieces to glue in!

(I put on some Mangione to speed things up, but it isn't helping very much.)

I'm still hoping, wishing, projecting (?) an old favorite of mine in BBK.

I know the absence of impressions doesn’t necessarily mean anything, but three names I’ve heard nothing about: Love, Reed and Anthony Bradford. Maybe after Vikings’ game?
