Quincyyyyy's highly anticipated 53 man roster and 7 man practice squad projection

Notes:

- rookies are bolded and UDFA's have an asterisk

Offense: 24

QB: Romo, Kitna, McGee

Kitna is on my watch list for surprise cuts.  Kitna is 38 and not that good honestly; if McGee can show he is decent and can handle the offense I would not be surprised to see Kitna gone.

RB: Felix, MB3, Choice,

No surprises here.

TE: Witten, Bennett, 

H-Back: John Phillips, Scott Sicko*

Sicko's athleticism and receiving abilities would complement our corps well since we already have two good blockers in Bennett and Phillips.  Deon Anderson is oft injured and a one trick pony.  If John Phillips can show he can take over Anderson's role then that would open up a roster spot for someone else.

WR: Austin, Dez Bryant, Roy Williams, Patrick Crayton, Kevin Ogletree,

Crayton is a victim to a talented receiving corps, and as a result his role will be very limited this year.  I'm guessing we'll keep him in hopes that someone will make us a good offer before the trade deadline.  Hudgins is a talented record breaking UDFA who may force the team to keep 6 receivers.

OT: Free, Colombo, Alex Barron, Brewster

OG: Davis, Kosier, Holland,

C: Gurode, Travis Bright

The young'uns as well as McQ have been rather unimpressive thus far.  I don't see 10 NFL roster worthy linemen in this training camp, so the Cowboys will settle for 9 OL.

Defense: 26

NT: Rat, Josh Price-Brent 

DE: Olshansky, Spears, Hatcher, Bowen, Sean Lissimore

Siavii could still make the team if the coaches aren't confident in Price-Brent.  Sean Lissimore got by in college on his superior athleticism and strength.  He'll have to show the coaches that he can develop his game if he wants to make the roster.

OLB: Ware, Spencer, Butler, Brandon Williams, Curtis Johnson

ILB: James, Brooking, Sean Lee, Jason Williams, Stephen Hodge

Hodge is the wild card here.  He supposedly has good coverage skills and special teams ability.  He could force the team to keep an extra ILB, but he has to get on the field first so he can fend off Octavien for the last linebacker spot.

S: Sensebaugh,  Mike Hamlin, Barry Church* 

FS/CB: Alan Ball, Akwasi Osuwu-Ansah

CB: Newman, Jenkins, Scandrick, Bryan McCann*

A cheaper Barry Church replaces Watkins who has maxed out his potential with this team.  Is Cletis Gordon really that much better than the rookies, whom still haven't tapped their potential?  I don't think so.  Thus it comes down to either McCann or Wall.  I'm going to give it to McCann.  I just think he has more potential as a CB than Wall (especially with his 4.35 speed), but if coaches want a better special teamer they'll go with Wall.

Special Teams:3

LS: L.P. Ladoucer

K: Buehler

P: McBriar

Can Buehler be more than a kickoff specialist?  One of the biggest questions this training camp.

7 man Practice Squad:

WR: Terrell Hudgins*

FB/H-back: Chris Gronkowski*

CB: Teddy Williams*

CB: Jamar Wall

OT: Sam Young

RB: Lonyae Miller*

OG: Mike Tepper*

A lot of interesting prospects here: 

- I really like Mike Tepper, but he needs a year to remake his body, which was my biggest concern going into the draft.  

- Lonyae Miller is an underrated RB who had to live in Ryan Mathews shadow in college.

- Teddy Williams is blazing fast but very raw since he hasn't played football since high school.  But you got to give the Cowboys props for thinking outside the box.  Who else would think to unfreeze a baseball great from cryogenic suspension to play cornerback?
