[bMore Heathen]

You have 58 there, so 5 will have to go.
Painter, Berry, Barbieri, Bynes (I'd rather keep him and get rid of BA) and Drew. That at least gets us to 53.

[ClintLB8]

McAdoo, Barberi, Berry, Painter, C. Brown (PS), Boren (PS), D. Reed, Josh Bynes (PS).

I put 8 guys because I think that the Ravens will add a few more pieces before the season and you know 1 or 2 UDFA will make the 53 man surprisingly.

[hawkprey]

I wouldn't be surprised if McAdoo comes down with another "injury" and goes on IR so we can hold on to him again. I don't know about holding 3 QBs, so Painter could be gone. Cook or Considine will be gone. Odds are someone will probably get hurt and land on IR or PUP. David Reed may also be cut. And I don't see Berry making the cut.

Very possible that Considine is cut because I believe it would save us his salary if I am not mistaken? Correct me if I am wrong. I think David Reed is done here. I think Bobby Rainey makes the squad and we carry 4 RBs and use one as a KR and Berry goes back to PS unless something surprising happens. I get the feeling Harewood could be cut, as well as Barbieri and Cam Newton's brother.

You are missing all of the UDFA's

Way too early to tell, training camp is not even here yet. There were no UDFAs on that list and no veteran signings that we might make when training camp comes around.

I hope we keep all of our CBs

To start I think we go I'm with more d linemen. I dont think Berry, Bynes, Graham or Cook make active roster. Your list has us carrying too many olb, corners and safeties. Good list for the most part but you never know which ufa makes a splash in camp.

Thats the list of who we have under contract with the exception of a few future reserve contract players I omitted. I think we cut quite a few of those guys.

Obviously way too early as we'll add a couple of guys and we have yet to see any of the rookies in action. Just figured I'd do it anyway haha.

[admartian]

Here is the report on Rainey:[url="http://www.sidelinescouting.com/rankings/2012/rb/bobby-rainey/"]http://www.sidelinescouting.com/rankings/2012/rb/bobby-rainey/[/url]
Thought he would get drafted.

[RavensDE]

The players positions relative to the team aren't going to change very much. Our core is set for the most part. We will keep most if not all of the drafted rookies. Most of our veterans are worth their contracts and will stay unless we get caught in a bad cap situation because we sign someone better at the last moment (unlikely). All the limbo players like Boren, Cook and the undrafted rookie free agents are all shooting for the relatively few remaining spots. I'm interested to look at the situation and be able to predict the situation. I'm terrible at it but it brings me no end of pleasure. Who are we keeping and why? What position is each player in contracturally? How are the players assessed? It can't be too early if it never ends.

Reading is a fundamental, my bad. It was cause I didnt see the udfas on the list why I thought it was your final roster.

Keeping 4 RBs is undesirable, but I want Rainey as a return man if he can provide that for us.

We need Jean-Baptiste as a backup NT.

I want Bynes to make the roster and play special teams at least.

I'd like to keep 9 offensive lineman if possible, but we could cut someone and I wouldn't be upset. I'd like to keep one of the UDFA T's for depth purposes, and I like Cornell.

Obviously this is all subject to change, but I think this would be a pretty decent roster.
