I only have 12 locks on the D side of the ball
DT (4) Slaton, Hill, Jenkins, Jackson
DE (3) Hendrickson, Murphy, Ossai
LB (1) Wilson
CB (3) CTB, Turner, Hill
S (1) Battle
Burks and Anderson are also probably 95% towards being locks because of ST.
Someone like Newton is likely 95% of the way there but if Golden thinks his college CB Morrison is a future CB1 and he’s there in the 2nd having Newton on the roster isn’t going to stop them drafting Morrison and Newton could yet be beaten out in camp by DJ Ivey/Marco Wilson and Jalen Davis.
FWIW my locks on O
QB (2) Burrow, Browning
RB (2) Brown, Perine
WR (5) Chase, Higgins, Gesicki, Iosivas, Jones
TE (1) All (IR)
T (3) Brown, Mims, Ford
IOL (1) Karras
Patrick has the inside track for an iOL spot but if he stunk out camp they wouldn’t feel obliged to keep him for $200,000 of dead money. He’s 95% there.
Chuck Sizzle is probably fortunate to be in this position but I’m struggling to envisage a scenario where he gets cut. I suppose Burton would have to show up on time and an undrafted FA beat him out as a returner.
