Here it is:

1. Chambers
2. Booker
3. Welker
4. Hagan
5. Vick

Gibson goes to the practice squad for another season. Campbell gets cut. Saban keeps another DB instead of a 6th WR.
 
Chambers
Booker
Welker (edges out Hagan for number 3)
Hagan
Gibson
Vick

Gibson would never make it to our PS, someone would claim him for sure.
 
I think they'll keep six. The obvious top four make it. So the decision is choose two of the following three; Vick, Gibson, Cambell, with practice squad possible for Aromashodu. It would be great if they could get something for the one they don't keep or for Russell, but it doesn't seem likely anymore.
 
The knock on Vick and his doubters were that we haven't seen enuff of him at WR this preseason . . . I think tonight he proved to have excellent hands, made tuff catches, ran good routes, caught extremely high punts . . .played some QB, I mean, how do u not keep him.

It will be tuff to do 6 receivers, but with the talent of Vick and Gibson, Saban may have to, which will short us probably at TE or maybe even RB, with us doing Barnes (I have him ranked over Beasley right now, the kid plays special teams and is showing off some hands now, better blocker than Beasley IMO and younger, I stick with him), Brown, Morris (also backup FB) and either Minor, Harris or another option not currently with the team. Not to mention I am hearing more and more that Vick is an emergency option at RB, slash fa sho. Teyo Johnson looked good tonight, but I guess many will feel too little too late. So TE is probably Peele, RAdar and McMike.

Presumming 25 offensive positions.

3 QB
6 WR
3 TE
4 RB/FB
9 OL

Perfect.

That looks pretty good and I don't think you could argue against that. I think they just may keep 6 but I doubt it becuase like you said, we will be keeping 5 safeties. But don't forget, we only carry 3 corners because of the cutting of Will Poole. I think you are going to see Jason Allen used in dime packages as the 4th corner and that allows Yerimiah Bell to step in at saftey. The thing about our depth is you're going to see a lot of players getting a decent amount of playing time. Another reason to be excited about this club!

You are probably right. But I just don't see how Saban keeps 6 WRs. There is still a chance, but it is very small. WRs aren't usually more than Wrs and kick returners. DBs can play special teams for you. The Dolphins will have WR/Kick Returners in Welker and Vick - no need for another.
 
vick was just clutch.....


1.chambers
2.booker
3.welker
4.hagan
5.vick
6.gibson(maybe)
 
what about our 7'th round pick? Devin aromashodu? without a doubt he had the best game of any of our recievers tonight, he shook the first man completely on at least 2 different plays. he looked very good tonight and i wouldn't be surpirsed if he sneaks in. i think we should definitely keep 6 recievers too, as it looks like we have some nice depth there now

The RB/FB area is a problem area for Miami. 4 spots is too small of a number. The rest looks great. I think you can pull a WR spot and add it to the RB/FB position to make it 5.

I guarantee u if we keep six, Gibson will have to do some special teams, which I haven't seen. As good as he looked, I think u are right . . . if Gibson can't do special teams, Nick is not gonna use a roster spot based on potential alone at WR, especially for a kid who wont see much time. I like Gibson, but he has to do more than be the number 5 WR to stay on this team.
