Time for some more adjustments with Day 3 of the draft in the books and the first wave of USFA's signed.
Draft (6):
Round 4 (#115): Erik All, TE, Iowa
Round 5 (#149): Josh Newton, CB, TCU
Round 6 (#194): Tanner McLachlan, TE, Arizona
Round 6 (#214): Cedrick Johnson, DE, Ole Miss
Round 7 (#224): Daijahn Anthony, DB, Ole Miss
Round 7 (#237): Matt Lee, C, Miami (FL)
UDFAs (14):
1. P: Austin McNamara, Texas Tech
2. QB: Rocky Lombardi, Northern Illinois
3. RB: Elijah Collins, Oklahoma State
4. RB: Noah Cain, LSU
5. WR: Sam Wiglusz, Ohio
6. WR: Cole Burgess, SUNY Courtland
7. TE: Cam Grandy, Indiana State
8. OT: Eric Miller, Louisville
9. DE: Justin Blazek, Wisconsin-Prattville
10. LB: Maema Njongmeta, LB, Wisconsin
11. LB: Aaron Casey, LB, Indiana
12. S: Michael Dowell, Miami (OH)
13. S: Lance Robinson, Tulane
14: S: PJ Jules, Southern Illinois
The influx of picks (6) and UDFA signings (14) bring us to 87 players, by my count. Close to the max of 90.
I still think we could use proven depth at guard, another true nose, and maybe another LB.
I am gonna list players who made the 53 last year + picks in the offense/defense/special sections, and the UDFA's in the section with the Future's/Practice Squad guys from last year. McNamara is the exception, as he is clearly competing with Robbins for a starting spot.
A. Offense: (28)
QB (2): Burrow; Browning
RB (4): Moss; C. Brown, T. Williams, Evans
WR (6): Chase, Higgins, Burton; Irwin, Iosivas, C. Jones

B. Defense: (30)
DE (6): Hendrickson, Hubbard; Murphy, C. Sample, Ossai, Johnson
DT (7): BJ Hill, Rankins; M. Jackson, Jenkins; Carter, Tufele, Bell
