So, which one has the most chance of making the 53-Man roster next year?

My guess is Gibson. Two average height receivers (Chambers, Booker), one Wayne Chrebet type (Welker) and a huge target (Gibson) sounds dangerous.

Gibson, he's a project though so I expect him to sign with an NFLE team, so we can see if he is indeed talented.

i wish kj would.but if ricky does go then he will play but i dont want ricky to go

KJ might just stay instead of Minor anyway so never know...

Gibson by far. He was a deep threat in college and he'd do well here. Signing him was like getting another draft pick. It was a very smart move.

im going with Gibson but i wouldnt mind Kay Jay to be on the team either

 

[FinFan133]

To me its in between Kay Jay and Hunt.With Minor gone he'll be a good young back to have behind Morris and also with T.Jones most likely gone we might as well give Hunt a shot and see what he can do

 

[tmny99]

I think Gibson because it appears that Booker might be dealt, cut, or released IMO.

 

[Jaj]

I don't see why Booker would be dealt or released. He'll just probably extend his contract a year and cut it down from 4m.

 

[DolfanCole]

Wow, very good question. I don't know much about any of them. But, considering the moves that I would anticipate happening, I'd go with KJ because I think Minor will be gone.

I think we may very well see both Kay Jay and Gibson. Gilmore is a FA if memory serves and Minor is likely gone. Gibson has tremendous size but he is very inconsistant, if he can put it together he could be a great pick up. Kay Jay is now what 27, with Minor probably gone he is probably a cheaper option but I wonder if we lose something on special teams.

If Fred Gibson realizes his potential and actually concentrates on the ball, he's going to make the team.

KJ is 3 months and 3 days older than Travis Minor, actually... so I don't think age would really be a factor in the decision of who to keep. It'll be an interesting battle next year in camp... basically comming down to who is better on special teams, considering Minor's whopping 5 attempts this year. Salary could be a consideration, however, as Minor even at the vet minimum would be much more expensive than KJ at his minimum.

Agreed but hes got to get that consistancy in catching the ball and perfecting his routes. They physical skills are there and wrs have historically developed well off practice squads...Jimmy Smith and Rod Smith to cite 2 great examples

There was no reason to under wannfart. Now it'll actually be utilized under saban i expect.

Wanny did 1 good thing with the PS and that was signing Ogunleye after he went undrafted...which was actually shocklingly brilliant cause of Ogun's expectations before the knee injury at Indiana.
