Battle-Armstrong vs London for the 6th WR (if Fins keep 6)
Advantage-London, better special teams player, Size, experience. even though Armstrong offers some PR/KR ability, I think Londons kick coverage prowess/size gives him an edge.

TE
(virtual lock)
A.Fasano
Battle-Martin,Nalbone,Wilford,Haynos,Bronson for 2 spots
Advantage-If Martin is healthy he's # 2, If martin makes it, I think they keep Nalbone at #3 for his potential.

Battle-Ndukwe,Alleman,Frye,Murphy,Quinn,Lewis (Berger at center)all for 1 or 2 spots

WR: Obviously you’re not following what’s happening. The advantage right now is Armstrong’s.

TE: if Nalbone develops and Haynos hold his own don’t be surprised if Martin is let go…

DL: Agree, but McDaniel has to prove, and Dotson could be a real player. Don’t count Wright out yet.

OLB: 100% agree.

CB: E.Green is looking exposed. No way he’s the front runner.
 
From what I'm reading, I'm giving a slight edge to Armstrong over London - at this point.

Also, Frye seems to have a very slim lead at the G spot.

And, I'd list C. Wake as a virtual lock.

Save for that, I agree with pretty much every assessment.
 
Walden, J. Allen, V. Davis & Wake will be motoring down the field when we kick off to the Falcons.
