For me:
Locks:
1. Green. Trade talk is insane.
2. Boyd.
3. Ross. No trades. It costs us money to release him. We need a speed guy
And he did show some flashes last year.
4. Higgins.
5. Tate.
Good bet:
6. Erickson. Phillips did not return many punts last year that I recall.
I think there is a good chance we keep 7. With more on the PS.
Let us look (with what we have now, which could change)
Offensive starters: Burrow, Mixon, Green, Ross, Boyd, Uzomah, J. Williams, Jordan, Hopkins, Su'a-Filo, Hart.
Defensive starters: Dunlap, Reader, Atkins, Hubbard; Bynes; Waynes, Jackson, Alexander, Bell, Bates.
Kickers/snapper: Huber, Bullock, Harris.
25 down, 28 to go.
Lock offensive actives = 7. Dalton (QB2), Bernard (RB2), Higgins (WR4), Tate (WR5), Sample (TE2), Johnson (OT3/G4-5), Price (G3/C2).
Lock defensive actives = 6. Lawson (DE3), L. Wilson (LB3), Davis-Gaither (LB4), Phillips (CB4/KR2/PR2), S. Williams (SS2), B. Wilson (FS2/KR1).
That is 13. 38 total. 15 more for the roster.
Roster likely (but not certain):
Defense: Tupou, Wren, Kareem, Sims
Offense: Finley, T. Williams, Erickson, Carter, Redmond
Edge of roster/Practice squad: pick 6 for the 53.
Offense: Dolegala, Anderson, Patrick, Schreck, Thomas, Morgan, Willis, Adeniji.
Defense: A. Brown, Glasgow, Bailey, J. Evans, Mabin, McTyer, T. Brown, Rose, Henderson.
That is 17. Not sure what the rules are for PS eligibility. But some of the above guys who do not make the cut are candidates, plus guys like Franks, Irwin, Lodge, Bohringer, Prince, Dugas, Godsil, Akinmoladun, and Sheldon, plus all the UFAs we are collecting.
Dalton shouldn't be a lock.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
